Black Lightning (2018–2021)
7/10
Black Lightning has kept me watching
17 June 2022
I write as a fan of all Arrowverse superhero series and discovered Black Lightning via a crossover episode. I thought I would give the series a go and soon got hooked. It loses points for season 4, which I feel started badly, though it picked up in later episodes. Super-villain Tobias Whale (Marvin Jones III) is a very memorable character throughout the series and his evil chuckling fits well with his psychopathic nature. He makes an excellent opponent for Black Lightning and his family, as do the Markovians. I found I enjoyed the soundtrack too, and I am a singer-songwriter myself, and the choice of backing music can help make or break a TV drama for me. On the whole Black Lightning is an enjoyable superhero drama and one I will probably watch again some time in the future.
