Hard as it is to imagine yet a fifth DC drama joining the CW ranks, Black Lightning continues to strike.
Black Lightning is notable as one of DC Comics’ first major African-American superheroes, and would follow as one of the first to headline a live-action series.
The younger McClain portrays Jennifer Pierce, described as “independent, outspoken scholar-athlete with a wild streak of her own,” while both in the comics later take on the identities of Thunder and Lightning.
It still remains unclear if the series would fall into the same multi-verse as Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl or Legends of Tomorrow, but what do we make of the latest Black Lightning additions?
