We all tune in weekly to Arrow, Flash, Supergirl and Legends of Tomorrow and next year we’ll have a new hero too… Black Lightning.
The newest series from The CW set in the DC Universe has been welcomed into the food at SDCC with this really cool trailer that focuses on the other four shows before getting to the newest additions.
Also, featuring panels from the comics and how they line up with the shows, it makes s appreciate just how awesome it is to have a shared universe on the small screen that we can jump into every week.
Based on the DC character created by Tony Isabella with Trevor Von Eeden, Black Lightning centres on Jefferson Pierce, a man who hung up his suit and secret identity years ago, but returns to the fold after his daughter, Jennifer becomes hellbent on justice.
The series was first announced as in development last September with plans for it to air on Fox. That has changed however and we will now see the character joining the likes of Supergirl, Arrow and The Flash on the network.
Cress Williams (Black Lightning), Nefessa Williams, China Anne McClain and Christine Adams all star.
