STATIC SHOCK Derek Barnett
Derek was one of the top athletes at high school, but his grades were dropping. His coach asked him to take a tutor, and he chose Virgil Hawkins. During their first session, Derek started getting cramps. On his way home, the cramps were getting more painful. It erupted when he boarded the bus home: he became a large ionic monster.
Terrified of the police, Static and himself, he fled into an alley, where he was found by Ebon. Ebon introduced him to the Meta-Breed, a gang of "monsters"; metahumans that were severely disfigured by the Big Bang. He made a home for the outcasts, which Derek accepted. The only thing Ebon wanted in return was D-Structs cooperation in the gang's criminal cause. Together with Ebon, Talon and Shiv, he robbed a money transport outside the Dakota Sports shop. Static arrived and quickly dispatched Talon and Shiv, and tried to talk Derek out of the Meta-Breed. The attempt failed when Ebon talked D-Struct into blasting him instead. Back at the hideout in Milestone Street Station, D-Struct didn't join the others to celebrate the successful heist. Instead, he just sat, thinking. Static popped up again and this time, Derek was more than willing to go back to his old life. He blasted Shiv and Talon, and together with Static made his getaway in an old subway car. The Breed managed to climb aboard, but were quickly disposed of. Back upstairs, Derek was reunited with his mother. He gave himself up, and volunteered to be a test subject in Bang Baby research.

MILESTONE COMICS D-STRUCK
Damon Briggs was a big-time member of the Paris Bloods, a well known street gang on Paris Island in Dakota. Like numerous other gangs, the Paris Bloods was effected by the Big Bang event where all the street gangs came together to settle their rivalries once and for all. After being hit with the quantum gas that killed most of the gang members, Damon "D-Struct" Biggs gained the ability to transform into a large molten creature with massive strength and a combustible compound. Soon after, Damon gave up the gang life and decided to go on the right track, even finishing his senior year of high school. Problems followed Damon when a few of his old fellow Paris Bloods confronted him. They attacked him to indicate that he can't just quit the Bloods, and he transformed to defend himself. The Bloods ran off, but also hatched a sinister plan. They kidnapped Damon's father in order to get him to kill Static, who had been foiling their drug operations in the area. After fighting Static, the two came to an agreement. D-Struct and Static faked a fight that ran all the the way to the Bloods hide-out and easily defeated them as a team. After the rescue, Damon took his father and moved away to follow threw with his dream of a better life.
