Dwayne MccallDwayne McCall is a character from the Static Shock animated series. He does not appear in Static, the Milestone Media comic book series on which Static Shock is based. The young Dwayne McCall became interested in television and video games when his single mother married again. With this marriage came a step-brother for Dwayne, Aaron Price, who came back from reform school. Dwayne was happy to finally have a brother. Dwayne also want to the Freeman Community Centre (a reference to philanthropist Augustus Freeman, a character in another Milestone series) and began to talk to other kids about make believe things. Dwayne McCall was also present at the Big Bang; his mother belived that he was uneffected, but he was. Dwayne could make anything in his imagination real by changing something into something else, provided that he knew what it looks, acts and sounds/tastes/smells like. His step-brother Aaron found out about Dwayne's powers and talked him into making a hundred dollar note; he did, but it was play money. Aaron tried to get Dwayne to turn an old nail into a key for a car, but Dwayne refused. To break into a bank, Aaron told Dwayne that the people there had ripped him off. Aaron also tried to get Dwayne to take down Static for interfearing with his plans for the bank. Static managed to stop Aaron's misguiding influence over Dwayne when he proved that Aaron was just taking advantage of him. Dwayne said that he did not know what to do so he was going to wait until he knew what the right thing was. Dwayne McCall's power to make his imagination real was likely to have been based on Rift, aka Fred Benton, the villain of the DC/Milestone comics crossover "When Worlds Collide". It has also been suggested that he is an homage to Static creator Dwayne McDuffie, who created the show's reality out of his imagination, and who (at the time) lived in a different state from the show's producers, and thus communicated with them only by phone call.
