Static/Virgil Hawkins' mother was dead in the TV series, despite the fact that she was alive in the comics. This change was done because producers had the intention "to focus on a strong, complex relationship between an African-American father and son." Nevertheless, Static co-creator Dwayne McDuffie was concerned by the change because he originally intended to oppose the stereotype of black people not having a complete nuclear family. However, McDuffie said "that it worked out okay", as the crew could use the absence of Virgil's mother to create a "couple of great stories".
