Black Lightning - Season 1 Episode 03: Lawanda: The Book of Burial
The show centers on Jefferson Pierce. He made his choice: he hung up the suit and his secret identity years ago, but with a daughter hell-bent on justice and a star student being recruited by a local gang, he'll be pulled back into the fight as the wanted vigilante and DC legend Black Lightning.
Let's hope, with all the intrigue intermittently gestured during this episode, the show delivers next week with the same style and execution of its first two.
Another week, another astounding Black Lightning episode. By my count this show is three for three so far, and this time it even showed a wider emotional spectrum.
Lady Eve is a queen deftly organizing the rest of the chessboard in a formation to win the game, and she's doing it while running circles around Black Lightning. And he doesn't even know it.
The exploration of another one of the communities Jefferson Pierce considers himself a part of highlights just how much this is a) an ensemble show and b) a show where setting really matters.
Black Lightning keeps filling its world with fascinating new characters. Exploring what it means to be a hero in a place with real-world consequences is a fresh and much-needed take on The CW superhero landscape.
We're barely into the infancy of Black Lightning and that kind of aliveness is already there and then some because what's going on in the fictional world of Freeland isn't too different than what's going on in real world.
