Even if they don't do a big "official crossover" for the show, I'd love if black lightning showed up during the flash sometime, even if it's brief. It may be hard cuz it films in Atlanta while all the other dctv films in Vancouver, but BL is only 13 eps this season, so the actors will probably have time

Rather see him in Supergirl, with James and him being Back-to-Back Badasses.

I hope they're not trying to copy Luke Cage by making Tobias Whale the Cottonmouth to Kobra's Diamondback.

Anissa's girlfriend Grace has been cast. Though it sounds like she'll be a bartender rather than a superhero.

Going by that backstory, maybe she'll still have the powers and just not use them for fighting crime to begin with.

Wonder if they'll complain about how Thuy isn't busty enough like they did with Gal Gadot.

I mean they probably weren't going to find any actress as big as Grace is in the comics, so complaining about her physique would be kind of pointless.

It's like when I see people get mad about the actors playing the Kingpin or Erik Killmonger being too small for the part. Yeah, most real life human beings don't have proportions like that!

Is it wrong that I'm kinda liking that costume more than Jefferson's?

Oh, I'm looking forward to this. And the fact that the CW is slowly becoming the DCTV Channel.

There's a lot to like already but my first big thought was 'that podium Jefferson is at is oddly small.'

And then i realized he's just that big a dude.

On one hand, that was awesome. On the other... Jefferson, that might not be the best idea

I know Jefferson's outta of the hero game, and rightfully peeved off, but he might have a rude awakening whether or not those cops wake up.

Definitely getting an aura of "this is not your typically DC CW show". Wish the title card didn't look blander than the promotional one.

But yeah, Jefferson blowing up a cop car and knocking out two cops... might not be the smartest or may come and bite him
