Static Shock
Rubberbandman appears on the Static Shock cartoon show, but with some revisions. In the show, his identity is Adam Evans, named after his creators Adam Blaustein and Yves Fezzani. Adam is the younger brother of Ivan Evans, who would later be known as the notorious Ebon, leader of the Meta-Breed. Adam is also dyslexic.
Adam is an former enemy of Static created from the Big Bang. After he discovered his powers, he went after a record producer who stole his music. His attempts at getting revenge were thwarted by Static. After being sent to prison, he escaped and went into hiding. He chose not to pursue a career as a criminal, but instead took up the identity of a new rapper named Stringer. Stringer became a famous hip-hop star and began dating Virgil’s sister Sharon. It wasn’t until an accident at one of his shows when he blew his cover as the Rubberband Man. Though he did fight Static again (and later fights Puff and Onyx), his dates with Sharon Hawkins changed him so he didn’t hold a grudge with Static. Adam convinces Sharon to see if her father can’t help him get into a different prison to avoid the discrimination he gets for being a Bang Baby. After the deal is made, he serves the rest of his time and then is set free.
After his release, Adam continues to make his music and even becomes an ally of Static against evil. When he starts his career as a crimefighter, his brother Ebon put pressure on him to join the Meta-Breed. Ebon posed as Rubberband Man to free the Meta-Breed from jail. The truth was eventually revealed when Static found a Rubberband Man costume Ebon stashed and thus clearing his good name. He was voiced by Kadeem Hardison.
