Black Lightning

The Battle Of Franklin Terrace

Black Lightning has chosen his side on Black Lightning Season 3 Episode 8. He's not playing the nice guy to the ASA any longer. Jefferson took a stand that sent shockwaves through the streets of Freeland. And dare I say, "Finally!" We've needed Black Lightning to step in and take back the town from Agent Odell. There's a new war brewing ... and it's electric. The tipping point in a battle doesn't always look like a monumental moment from the outside. In the cas... more

The Book of Resistance

Black Lightning has joined the ranks of the insurgency. Though, it wasn't in the way we initially expected it to be. A transport mission was his first task on Black Lightning Season 3 Episode 7. The mission was more to help a family member ensure the safety of a loved one than going against the rule of the ASA. Though, this one mission finally sparked the change needed for Black Lightning to stand up and fight. The heroes are all on the same side for once. Maybe together they'l... more

The Book of Resistance

There's a new secret brewing on Black Lightning Season 3 Episode 6. (Shonda won't be able to keep this one quiet for much longer!)

She barely had time to appear on-screen before New Gotham and the rest of Earth-203 blew to smith... more

Which Arrowverse Heroes Would Swear, If Their Shows Were on DC Universe?

What if Arrow‘s titular vigilante scolded scalawags by growling, “You have failed this f–king city!”? What if The Flash‘s Cisco greeted the latest Wells doppelganger by groaning, “Great. Another f–king a–hole.” We never hear such expletives uttered by the heroes (or villains) of broadcast-TV’s Arrowverse slate, which also includes Supergirl, Legends of Tomorro... more

Black Lightning Recap: Tobias Drops a Bombshell! And Is [Spoiler] a Meta?!

Chapter Five of Black Lightning’s “Book of Occupation” is appropriately titled “Requiem for Tavon,” because the episode tells part of his story — that of a young man falsely identified as a meta, who loves his parents, and has dreams as big as the constellations his dad told him about. The episode also weaves in surprising revelations about other characters, their covert plans, and their motives…. Blackbird’s Wings Cl... more
