From the world of Batman Beyond comes Zeta, an experimental infiltration robot designed to be a government agent.

As pursuer Bennet’s anger and persistence grow, the question becomes: Who’s the real threat to humanity?

They created him to kill their enemies. But he refuses to destroy anymore … Renegade “synthoid” Zeta (voice of Diedrich Bader, Batman: The Brave and the Bold), marked for reprogramming after developing a conscience and defying his evil orders, flees from a ruthless government agent. Capable of transforming himself at will into any human shape and possessing amazing cybernetic resources, Zeta joins Ro (voice of Julie Nathanson, Beverly Hills 90210) a 15-year-old street kid in her own kind of trouble with the law. In this spin-off from the blockbuster animated series “Batman Beyond,” futuristic vehicles, weapons and technology meld with the touching and humorous story of two misfits who need each other to survive in a dangerous world.

Taking on the guise of Static, an urban hero of his own creation, he must learn to control his powers, figure out how to patrol the skies at night and still make it home in time to study for school, Virgil’s greatest discovery becomes the real “charge” he gets out of helping people and making a positive difference as a super hero to his community. The series confronts real problems and issues faced by today’s kids, including peer pressure, gangs and growing up in an ethnically diverse urban neighborhood.
