10 Best Static Shock Episodes

Every DC hero needs a good rival villain, a foil to question their morality as they duke it out and force the hero to grow as a result. And no one does that for Static better than Ebon. So naturally our first exposure to the master of Dakota's darkest shadows gets on the list.

The story is simple, but effective, demonstrating everything that would make Ebon so dangerous throughout the show. From his powers, to his silver tongue, to his gang, The Meta-Breed, we see everything that helps Ebon give Static such a hard time for the next four seasons.

While the story isn't specifically about him, instead being about a new bang baby that he convinces to join up with him and whom Static must save, it's still a more than effective showcase of this villain. Not only giving us what makes him stronger than Static, but also how the rules of his powers gives Static the advantage, seeing as how he controls shadow and darkness, and Static generates electricity.

Another simple story, but one that's tightly written, intelligently executed, and of course, features a great villain.
