Black Lightning hits your TV screen.
Black Lightning is a new CW television series, based on the DC Comics character of the same name. Actor Cress Williams stars as the superhero (aka Wyatt in Prison Break) while Christine Adams (Terra Nova‘s Mira) plays his ex-wife. Think a middle class Luke Cage exported via Marvel into the DC universe.
Teacher Jefferson Pierce has retired from his superhero persona Black Lightning, but he’s reluctantly forced to put the mask back on when his daughter Jennifer and a former star student are both recruited by a local crime gang hell-bent on taking over the city.
