Black Lightning on the CW

Was that more green light in that briefcase Tobias opened?

Guess now we know that the lady with Tobias is not Gambi's kid or anything like that...or if he even has one...

Fantastic finale. Especially loved the power up scene. Kudos to the cast and crew of this amazing series.

[PyroTwilight]

Well. That was...boring.

Nice character moments but yeah. Didn't really feel like a season finale or even much of a conclusion.

Tobias built himself up nicely in the end taking out Eve and Proctor but given it wasn't really by his own doing it might make him seem wily but not exactly a threat that's really credible.

And the apparent explanation of LaLa's resurrection and his visions is just really unsatisfying. I guess he's dead now too? For good? Maybe? *shrug*

Possible spoilers. Read no further if you haven't seen the episode yet.

It almost felt like a series finale except for the final scene with Tobias. spoilers:

Everyone from ASA being killed off, including Proctor.

end of spoilers I guess the producers were hedging their bets as to whether it would get a second season and maybe
the Tobias scene would be removed in the final cut. But with Tobias still in charge looks like more fun for next season.

Kryptonite? That would be kinda cool.

Tobias didn't take out Proctor. Gambi did.

We ended up with Tobias Whale, Syonide, Lady Eve, Painkiller and The Tattooed Man as a rogues gallery. Throw in Jimmy Toledo. None of them were one-off villains of the week which I find was rather impressive. They didn't skimp on development either.

[Immortal Weapon]

Tobias resurrected Lala just to kill him again? At least he confirmed our suspicion of Lala being tattooed man before dying again.

Nice to see Syonide act like a character for once after being scenery for the entire season. It didn't take long for Khalil to embrace villainy. I feel for his mom.

I'm looking forward to season 2. I would like to see the city open up rehabilitation for the metas. Being treated like a science experiment for 30 years will not be kind to the psyche. Maybe the show will remember Grace.

[KabutoRyder]

I know it's a super hero show, so we are subjected to plenty of cheese, but I dunno, just that finale ep they seem to really jump off in it, so that feel of the episode was kind of off putting. Curious to see where a second season goes, how many episodes it is and the family dynamic and what kind of conflicts and progressions the writers can craft with that

[CliffHanger2]

Really satisfying finale action packed and a lot of character moments. Liked the BP moment between Jeff and his Dad. Doubt we've seen the last of LaLa if so that was a waste of a good character.

[Nite-Wing]

I love the show and how flippant it is with its introduction to super powers
In Black Lightning all it takes is a million dollars to resurrect someone like LaLa again and again
In fact you don't really have true metahumans as all the powers are tied to science and tech in some way
Hope next season is even longer

[PyroTwilight]

Tobias didn't take out Proctor. Gambi did.

Which is kinda my point. Even Tobias rising to the top doesn't really mean anything anymore due to the finale. Proctor and presumably Lady Eve having no ties to the ASA makes both of them pretty inconsequential.

Lady Eve? Apparently amazing but quickly killed off. Same with Proctor who Gambi killed off. Without ties to a real shadowy organization the two and their apparent stature as we now know, means nothing.

[Raijin]

Salim Akil says that what's in the briefcase is a part of DC comics mythology. Whatever it is, it's definitely not kryptonite.

Am really enjoying the series and the suits for Black Lightning and Thunder are AWESOME.
Am wondering if Lightning will be getting a suit. Did her comic book character ever have one? *cannot remember at the moment*
