Static Shock: Special one shot

I had really been looking forward to this book for a few months now. Unfortunately it was very disappointing. The story was way to rushed, it felt like Virgil's uncle got out of jail, hung out with his family, when exercising got kidnapped, saved and then died all in the same day. The art seemed truncated also, it really felt like there were panels missing. In more than one scene the action just seemed to skip, only showing the windup then the fly ball without showing the hit. The best part of the book was the Dwayne McDuffie commemoration in the back. I really really would love to see a new Static book become an ongoing, but if this is the jump off point, this will be a pretty bad first step.

edit: i geuss this was just a commoration thing for Mr. McDuffie and they are pushing back the ongoing to the DC relaunch
