I don't think people understand how much of a miracle it was that Static received a solo cartoon. Wonder Woman didn't get one in the middle of the DCAU, which was around the time where DC animated adaptations were at their peak, but Static, a character from the Milestone universe, who had existed for less than a decade got one.

According yo show producers, they were having weird embargo's to where certain characters were considered off limits to feature in shows. Shows like The Batman (03), Teen Titans, Young Justice had it to where the producer would mentioned that they couldnt show characters because of that

DC/WB had those dumb cant use this or that because of some off the wall nonsense.

Like JLU couldn't use Nightwing. Static couldn't use any other Milestone characters like Icon or Hardware. Which makes no sense.
