Release Date: January 2018 on The CW

The CW’s roster of DC TV shows just keeps on growing. With Arrow, The Flash, Legends of Tomorrow and Supergirl all enjoying much success, the network will soon be adding Black Lightning to their line-up, as well.

The series will star Cress Williams as Jefferson Pierce, AKA the eponymous electricity-powered hero, as he suits up to save his daughters from the clutches of a local gang. Though airing alongside the four shows set in the Arrowverse, Black Lightning is believed to be completely in its own continuity. Although, we thought that about Supergirl at first, too, and we all know how that ended up turning out.

By the sounds of it, Black Lightning looks to be bringing something of the grit of Marvel’s Netflix shows, or perhaps Arrow‘s first couple of seasons, to the DC TV universe. At the very least, it gains points for adapting one of DC’s pioneering black superheroes.
