Black Lightning |OT| A Whale of a Time (Tuesdays at 9pm)
- Thread starter tgrfawcett
- Start date
The actress who plays Grace said she was coming back, not sure if or how much her role gets expanded.
As a comic geek(I actually own some of the comics) I want the whole outsiders team to assemble. Grace in season 1 besides dropping some foreshadowing was just a fling. I would love for her to get more development in season 2 or in future seasons. I mean lets be real we will be on season 3 come next year so I can definitely see her coming back and being a fan favorite.
Again I like the character and want more, but I gotta call it like it is.

Ugh, for a moment i got pretty happy seeing this topic, until i realized i had mixed up Black Lightning with Black Dynamite... I loved Black Dynamite. For those who don't know Black Dynamite... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96Y24a0cyCE
But she cute, I wanna see her develop into a real character and what not
I was actually surprised she barely appeared in this season.
Amazing cast.
Cant wait for S2...pretty much dropped all other CW superheroes show but this one has been delivering.
A shame if they do. I really liked the actress. They weren't doing much with her in season 1. Maybe she got a more solid role elsewhere. Or maybe she will still show up and they don't want to rush it.
The first three episode titles were revealed, guess they're sticking with "the book of" theme for the titles
I know the show used green light to make reference to the crack epidemic, but I wasn't expecting the phrase green light babies to be used.

Hope this show keeps it up with the upcoming new CW show coming up.
It's probably the only CW superhero show I enjoy anymore. Well, maybe Legends, too.

So it looks like the intent is to create their own "Lightningverse" wit Black Lightning.

Yeah, that is not what it means. They are simply creating their own world with a lot of characters in it. There is not going to be a Lightningverse alongside the Arrowverse and the Titanverse.
I mean it's a Superhero TV show ...it's still pretty cool compared to the Arrowverse shows running right now.
Maybe I'm just used to Marvel SH shows. It never dawned on me until now how much a mask helps to conceal identity when you have this SH running around who anyone should instantly recognize if they've seen him as not Black Lightning. It's so glaring it borders on comedic.
Only the show tackles that, they don't see him, they see lightning. Which is a lot more concealing than a clearly blind superhero (considering he covers his eyes)
I feel like I'm the only person who remembers the scene where Jennifer is trying to explain what it's like to look at his face. She says it hurts to look at and then compares it to a spotlight.
Either I missed it or haven't gotten that far. Episode?
What about him not recognizing his own daughter when fighting her?
Season 2 promo is out today

BLACK LIGHTNING
The title of Season 2's opening arc — "The Book of Consequences: Rise of the Green Light Babies" — tells you pretty much all you need to know about the superhero drama's sophomore run, which picks up just a week after the events of the finale. Per showrunner Salim Akil, "We're going to deal with the consequences of having discovered the pod children; the consequences of Green Light hitting the streets; and the consequences of Jefferson's daughters discovering they have powers." Black Lightning himself remains in a "win and lose situation," seeing as how the Green Light Babies and the mayhem they make will keep some Freelanders wary of their metahuman-powered vigilante. Tobias Whale, last seen beaming over a mysterious, gleaming briefcase, still clutches onto a two-pronged agenda — kill Black Lightning, take over Freeland — "and in the first episode you'll see exactly what motivates him to 'burn the city down,' as he says." On the personal front, Akil says that Anissa's new relationship with Grace Choi will make for "really, really good" drama, while Jennifer will juggle the idea of Khalil's redemption with the fact that, as Painkiller, her ex (briefly) killed her dad!

You know what, I love this show so damn much that I'll refrain from watching any upcoming trailers.
Just finished the first season less than an hour ago.
That was great! Really great!
Looking forward to S2.
