The CW has announced a big addition to the cast of their series Black Lightning with rapper Krondon, aka Marvin Jones III, as the series’ villain, Tobias Whale.
Created by Tony Isabella and Trevor von Eeden, Tobias Whale made his first appearance back in Black Lightning #1 in 1977.
But Black Lightning’s recent return has ignited Tobias’ desire to emerge from the shadows and face his biggest adversary, Jefferson Pierce, aka Black Lightning.
But in the days before Black Lightning, Tobias was a politician, rising up the ranks of local government through corrupt and illegal means.
