Jimmy Osgood (Season 5)

Jimmy Osgood is a character from Static Shock who initially was a villain, appearing as the main antagonist in the episode "Jimmy", but in the Fifth Season he became a major character who is Static and Gear's personal secret agent. He is voiced by Richard Steven Horvitz.

Backstory
He was born to two loving parents and a twin brother, Johnny, Jimmy loved his brother and the two often hung out together with their best friends, Nick Connor, Kevin Greene, and Ray Sanderson that is until one day everything changed, it seemed like a normal day and Johnny was introducing Jimmy to a sport he had never played before, basketball and when it was Jimmy's turn to throw the ball into the hoop and as expected he missed as he going to retrieve the ball he felt something hit his head and blacked out and then he woke up in an unfamiliar barn to two muscular looking men who asked him if he had any relatives and said to him that he had a twin brother named Johnny but he begged for them not to hurt him they lied and said that they will not hurt him but they ended up torturing him until he died.

His plan
When he first heard about the Big Bang he didn't think that the Quantum Vapor could bring the dead back to life and all that he thought was that this was some sort of karma that finally hit them after they tortured and later killed his brother but after hearing news about how powerful the gas had made it's victims he started playing with the idea that the gas could potentially bring his brother back to life and he came up with a very strategic plan about how to bring his brother back to life:


 * 1) He had to steal his father's gun.
 * 2) He had to kill the Meta-Breed since he wanted to protect his brother from Ebon since he figured out that Ebon is the same guy who tortured and later killed his brother and if he was still alive when he was brought back to life he would probably try to kill him again.
 * 3) Kill Edwin Alva since that were to be the only way to be able to steal the Quantum Vapor.
 * 4) Dig his corpse out of his grave and spray some Quantum Vapor on it and then he would come back to life.

But he needed to get close to either a member of the Meta-Breed (excluding Ebon) or Static for this plan to work.

Meeting Virgil and Richie
One day while he was at school he ended up being sent to study hall due to not paying attention in class but while he was there Static (as Virgil Hawkins) was there as well. He saw this as the perfect opportunity for him to get close to Static so he decided after school to fake being bullied so he can save him and it worked as Virgil and Richie believed him and visited him in his room to cheer him up he scarred them off by trying to show them his dad's gun he apologized and they forgave him afterwards and he reluctantly agreed to visit them at the Freeman Community Center and unlike Virgil and Richie who played basketball most of the time they were there Jimmy spent most of his time sitting on the bleachers and on his computer and when he did try to shoot a hoop he missed but while he was there Frieda Goren whom later became his crush asked him if he wanted to decorate for that year's Dakota Fright Fest Jimmy agreed and while he was working on the decorations he was also spying on Virgil while he was fighting crime as "Static" and he overheard the Meta-Breed say that they were all going to meet up at the Freeman Community Center so he came up with a plan he was going to skip both Fright Fest and school the next day so Virgil will get worried about him and when he realized what was going on it'll be too late. When he did arrive at the Freeman Community Center the Meta-Breed were no where to be found and then Kevin and Ray tackled him which caused Richie to get shot in the leg and suddenly he felt remorse for everything that was so overwhelming that all he could do was curl up into a ball and cry until the police came and put him into juvie and ordered him therapy with Dr. Franklin.

After being released from juvie/ his time as a secret agent
After 7 months of being in juvie he was released early due to good behavior and the next day at school he was reunited with all of his friends, old and new and while he was deciding rather he wants to hang out with Virgil and Richie or Nick Connor, Kevin Green, or  Ray Sanderson he once again got kidnapped by Ebon, this time as a bang baby but unlike last time, Static and Gear were here to save him and after he had told him about his backstory about his brother being tortured then killed by the man who later be known as Ebon and what lead up to him attempting a mass shooting but one part really stood out to Virgil and Richie is the part where he mentioned that he spied on Static while he was fighting villains so he can learn when and where to kill the Meta-Breed, while they knew what he did was wrong they skill admired his skills in strategic planning and spying skills so they gave Jimmy the offer of being their personal secret agent which he agreed, since then he has been helping Static and Gear fight crime and that part is nothing minor as he has been able to prevent some catastrophes such as preventing The Joker and Harley Quinn from sabotaging Robert Hawkins's and Trina Jessup's wedding in "A Hawkins Wedding".

He quit being a spy after the events of the Power Outage two-parter, while still working with Static and Gear because he gained superpowers while being exposed to the Quantum Vapor in Part I that include:
 * being able to create energy constructs via his mind
 * invisiblity
 * teleportation without the use of a portal
