Per the official press release from DC Comics, “New Titans #38 follows Static as his path intersects with that of Jon Kent, a.k.a. Superman, at Mount Titans, just as an emissary from Wonder Girl’s tribe arrives seeking Yara Flor’s help against a rising force in the Amazon rainforests of Brazil. As the Titans prepare for their first major mission, Static steps into a team grappling with internal tensions and a threat powerful enough to challenge even their combined abilities.”

The issue will mark Static’s first major storyline in the mainline DC Universe , which paved the way for Static to make that leap during the DC K.O.: The Kids Are All Fight Special. This was followed by the events of New History of the DC Universe: The Dakota Incident, which retold the origins of the Milestone Universe’s premier heroes within the confines of the primary DC timeline.

As noted by the DC Comics press release, the budding crisis in the Amazon will push the Titans to their limits, while “Static’s arrival marks the spark that will drive the team into its most challenging mission yet. His return sets the stage for a high-stakes arc that reshapes the Titans’ path and reintroduces one of DC’s most electrifying heroes to the center of the action.”
