10 Characters That Could Appear In The Arrowverse
5. Static Shock
Show: The Flash
Virgil Hawkins, aka Static Shock, is a young adult that can manipulate electrical and magnetic energy and because of this, he is classified as a metahuman. Static is the type of character that would fit perfectly into the kind of show that The Flash is. He is light-hearted, smart, witty, an upbeat citizen, and gets along with just about everyone.
The Flash has had a wide array of metahuman heroes with unique abilities. Killer Frost's ice, Firestorm's fire, and Elongated Man's, er, stretchiness are some excellent examples, so it would make total sense to have a character who can shoot lightning out of their hands. He is also a fan of movies and could easily have great chemistry with Cisco. Another good reason is that one of Barry Allen's strengths is when he is acting as a mentor. He's taken his experience, along with training from Oliver, to become quite the teacher for any meta wanting to become a hero or an outstanding human.
Plus with it confirmed that Black Lightning isn't part of the Arrowverse, Static would be a great way to add a lightning-powered hero to the mix.
