"And Then the Devil Brought the Plague: The Book of Green Light"
PAYBACK IS A BITCH - An unexpected phone call unearths the long-buried need for Jefferson (Cress Williams) to investigate the murder of his father. Meanwhile, Annisa (Nafessa Williams) wrestles with the fact that her actions have dire consequences. Lastly, Jennifer (China Anne McClain) learns the importance of controlling her temper - in all situations.
flashbro that was skeptical of black lightning here
i watched all 4 episodes and really got into the show. I'm sorry that it took so long to get into it. Thanks to the anons who told me to give it a fair chance.
Michael Morris
Was gonna make thread. But seriously what is CW doing why isnt Legends and this on hiatus like the other shows. Its the Winter Olympics.
Elijah King
Prepare yourself for more Jeff pining after his ex instead of going ball deep in that vice principle
Colton Moore
does black lightning ever get a vehicle? seems inefficient to go everywhere on foot
Camden Hughes
He needs the exercise
Brandon Morris
Welp, there you go.
Juan Gray
Now you have your answer.
Jayden Bennett
The target audience for Black Lightning has no reason to watch the Winter Olympics. Winter Olympics is for white sports.
Dominic Morgan
Does he look like he needs a vehicle?!
Camden Carter
Hey, is Black Lightning back?
John Rivera
BLACK LIGHTNING CAN FLY
Justin Bennett
The dude can glide/fly!?
Mason Brooks
>Not knowing that you can use electricity to fly
Colton Adams
>hes having so much fun with his flight
Jordan Foster
This is literally Infamous
Mason Hughes
I'm going to say that the target demographic for Black Lightning is not super interested in the Winter Olympics.
Because the only black Winter Olympians are in bobsled.
Lucas Nelson
This seems too OP... there's gotta be a catch. He can't fly everywhere like Ironman.
Elijah Reed
Glad you’re having fun!
Adam Phillips
Im getting into this show.
Noah Cruz
I like the figure skating and im black
Andrew Morris
In my opinion, someone with the power of electricity should be fully capable of being The Flash, AND, flying through the sky like a bolt of lightning.
This is Legends' chance to prove itself by standing on its own. Same for Black Lightning. Not unless we're talking about retard Barry from Supergirl season 1. The one who throws lightning at a woman made of lightning.
Asher Morgan
>character in the show is doing something >background music is relevant to what they're doing
What is this called? I'm not sure if I like it or if it's corny.
Charles Ramirez
I adore the sisterly banter.
Brayden Young
>Legionnaires
Levi Campbell
Because he always was in the comics. He's a redemptive arc, and his brother (who existed first) was the TAILOR OF CRIME, who made the Flash Rogue costumes.
Brandon Jenkins
Necessary opinion: the "Power, power" intro is really bad.
Isaiah Jenkins
So does that make the outsiders real on this earth?
Adam Adams
I love edits of music put in during curling events.
Chase Hughes
I'm just talking about the full potential of electricity, that most don't seem aware of. Most, like Black Lightning, do little more than shoot lightning from their fingers.
Did you forget that time Supergirl used heat vision on a woman with fire powers?
Kayden Torres
It's corny. Specifically, shit like Greenlight and the Freeland song that are way too close to the plot. I don't think there's a term for it specifically, but you can call it non-diagetic if you want to sound fancy. ("Diagetic" means the music is coming from something like a speaker, that the characters can actually hear)
Chase Wilson
Baby girl got the moves, even without her powers waking up yet.
Daniel Rivera
Having fire powers doesn't mean you're made of fire. But Livewire was clearly living electricity.
Jace Adams
POWER POWER POWER POWER POWER
It's also super fucking loud.
Julian Thomas
commercial break
Cameron Kelly
>I'm just talking about the full potential of electricity, that most don't seem aware of. Most, like Black Lightning, do little more than shoot lightning from their fingers.
Some times that's what their power is though. Not electrical control, just electrical blasts.
Parker Jones
He does that kind of shit in the comics and the shorts from DC Nation. The CW doesnt have the budget to do it on the show. If it lasts long enough i dont see Jennifer geting her lightning body.
Ryder Cox
And when you cum on Livewire it tingles her skin.
Andrew Hughes
This show has a lot of black people in it.
Liam Wright
So, there was a conspiracy regarding powers related to experimentation on black soldiers in WWII. Interesting world building regardless if it pans out to actually be something or not.
Isaac Scott
So I thought that both his girls got electricity powers. Thunder and Lightning.
William Morris
Seems like him using his powers so much is overly taxing him.
Asher Gray
Huh, has he taxed himself on his powers or is it actually an addiction thing.
Gavin Nelson
Yes, both of them. Anissa got her first, Jennifer's come later
Alexander Roberts
HOW DARE YOU DO YOUR JOB?!
Jace Williams
Jefferson Pierce is an upstanding member of the community.
I really want it to be total BS speculation.
Ryan Long
Get this dude a fukken aspirin!
Dominic Foster
I actually think one of the girls got super strength, and the other got electricity powers
Grayson Long
Only Jennifer gets full electric powers to the point of bbecoming living lightning. Anissa is more sound and strength based.
Jonathan Gonzalez
I always wondered why metas could do whatever they wanted to do without having to eat like 10k calories a day.
Adam Torres
Well she's putting it all together.
Obviously the younger sisters powers hasn't awakened yet.
Josiah Jenkins
What actually IS thunder as a power?
John Phillips
Thunder doesn't really have electricity powers. I think it's more like density control IIRC.
Joseph Young
His ex-wife who seems to have no advantage over said vice-principle, even outside of black lightning discussions they dont have much of great relationship
Cameron Baker
So there are 14 other black guys with superpowers?
Could the Tuskegee Metas be related to Tobias' anti-aging serum and Green Light?
Jaxon Campbell
OK.
Anthony Watson
>red hat Subtle
Robert Robinson
What's the difference between Black Lightning and... Lightning, in terms of abilities?
Leo Ortiz
In the end, he was just a man afraid.
Also, damn! Jefferson is taxing himself something fierce.
Angel Wright
First love can be a powerful thing, plus mother of his children, plus the fact that Jeff is dumb as a fucking brick when it comes to his dick
Ayden Flores
Welp. Black Lightning is dead.
Carson Morgan
Black Lightning shoots lightning (originally coloured black)
Lightning turns into a lightning elemental.
Joshua Perez
Black.
Samuel Harris
Is he kill?
Bentley Edwards
Experience and creativity.
Gavin Martin
I think Lightning is going to be like Livewire from Superman/Supergirl, where she can turn into electricity, travel through cell phones and shit.
Jacob Torres
Maybe Tobias has other powers besides an anti aging serum.
Jonathan Morales
Heyyy they finally made it explicit that it's Peter Gambi, not Paul.
Christopher Gutierrez
Clear info on Anissa's powers
he is capable of increasing her physical density, rendering herself bulletproof, and creating massive shockwaves when stomping upon the ground. So yeah Density manipulation. But the shockwaves sound like thunder and her dad is the OG electric hero so homage. Jefferson doesnt become living lightning for one. Classic kid has same power as parent but can unlock more potential.
Owen Gutierrez
I hope it turns him monstrously large
Logan Ward
he died as he lived
Colton Hernandez
The only thing I was thinking about was mother of his children, forgot all about the first love part. He will probably get over her if she dies after finally accepting him as Black Lighting or something
David Evans
I can't believe Black Lightning is a FUCKING DEAD!
Andrew Gonzalez
Is he a Freeland Meta?
Robert Perez
So, Black Lightning just shoots and projects electricity, and Lightning IS electricity?
...
Can Black Lightning absorb electricity and recharge himself or whatever, or does he only generate it? Can he absorb Lightning? Or, alternatively, can Lightning go inside of Black Lightning and give him a power boost?
Zachary Robinson
>Tobias Whale >Whale >turns into a Manatee
Easton Green
>if she dies Jeff will never touch another titty because muh lost Lenore Only way for him to move on is for his ex wife to move on
Liam Mitchell
angry?
Matthew Stewart
That would be amazing
Michael Rogers
Black Lightning can absorb electricity and do some Magneto type stuff.
Lucas Flores
Black.
Alexander Watson
>TObias Whale >Whale >Turns into a whale >A killer whale
Asher Campbell
Hopeful
Aaron Thompson
They will probably do whatever they want. On LoT there's a character who can turn into water, and when she drowns people they cough up water afterward, which should mean that she's literally missing a part of herself.
Samuel Butler
Headaches, mood changes and passing out? That could be just stress, y'know?
It's already turning him monstrously white
I want this to lead to Paul on Flash.
Gabriel Morgan
>can Lightning go inside of Black Lightning and give him a power boost?
Lewd AND incestuous.
Isaiah Ward
Jefferson you are what we like to call an old ass nigga. Slow it down.
Ian Price
Where did they find this dude to play Tobias, he's perfectly casted
