‘Black Lightning’ Season 2: First Images Gives A Glimpse Into The Upcoming Superhero Series!! Check It Out!!

One of the most radical things Black Lightning did in its Season 1 finale was not kill off its main villain Tobias Whale (Marvin Jones III). Though many other lesser villains left this mortal coil, the central struggle between our hero Jefferson Pierce (Cress Williams) and Tobias will remain. It was a really refreshing choice, actually, because it means that the show doesn’t have to … Continue reading ‘Black Lightning’ Season 2: First Images Gives A Glimpse Into The Upcoming Superhero Series!!

‘Black Lightning’ Episode 2 Trailer Is All Charged Up and Ready to Go!!! Check It Out!!

If you tuned in for the premiere of Black Lightning, you know that the show has already separated itself from the other superhero series on The CW. It’s a show about community and family first, with a tinge of superheroics thrown in after the fact. It’s a show that’s incredibly relevant at present, and yet timeless for all the injustices it aims to tackle. And it’s … Continue reading ‘Black Lightning’ Episode 2 Trailer Is All Charged Up and Ready to Go!!! Check It Out!!

New ‘Black Lightning’ Trailer Teases a Whole Family of Superheroes!!! Check It Out!!

One of my most highly anticipated shows of 2018 is Black Lightning. The CW sent the first two episodes for press to see, but since they weren’t for review I can’t comment on them officially yet. But what I can say is that, yes, you should be hyped. The show is not like the series of the Arrow-verse in almost any way, except for the fact that … Continue reading New ‘Black Lightning’ Trailer Teases a Whole Family of Superheroes!!!

New ‘Black Lightning’ Trailer Makes Crime-Fighting a Family Affair!! Check It Out!!

The CW has released a new trailer for its 2018 debut superhero series Black Lightning and it’s easily my favorite so far. This series features a Black lead with Cress Williams‘ Jefferson Pierce, a.k.a. Black Lightning, something The CW has yet to do in the live-action department. It also centers on a socially conscious hero with hometown values, something Arrow could have embraced early on but opted to … Continue reading New ‘Black Lightning’ Trailer Makes Crime-Fighting a Family Affair!!

‘Black Lightning’ Casts CW Alumnus Cress Williams in Starring Role!!!

Things are moving quickly with the Black Lightning TV show. Just two weeks ago we reported that the series was most likely moving to The CW after being passed over by Fox, who was afraid they were going to have too many superhero TV shows — probably not a smart move for Fox, but honestly, I’d prefer to see the series go to a network … Continue reading ‘Black Lightning’ Casts CW Alumnus Cress Williams in Starring Role!!!

‘Black Lightning’ Character Descriptions and Synopsis Revealed for The CW Series!!! Check It Out!!

The CW is poised to bring about a superhero series that features a lead African-American cast, rather than African-American actors in supporting roles, in the DC Comics adaptation, Black Lightning. And not just that, the lead is looking like he won’t be The CW’s targeted age of 20/30-something, but rather a middle-aged man with teen and young adult children of his own.

The ‘Black Lightning’ TV Series Could Be Moving to The CW!!!

The CW is moving closer to being The DC TV channel, or perhaps All Things Berlanti. Maybe. You may recall back in the fall that Fox gave the green light to a Black Lightning TV series created by super-producer Greg Berlanti and husband and wife duo Mara Brock Akil and Salim Akil. However, it looks like Fox is now reconsidering its jump into genre fare, and doesn’t … Continue reading The ‘Black Lightning’ TV Series Could Be Moving to The CW!!!
