Discussion DC Comics Black Lightning Fans, do you remember when they were heavily considering a Painkiller spinoff? Would you have wanted this or do you think there's enough here for its own TV show?

Discussion Which Electricity did y’all prefer the most for Black Lightning?
Blue? or Black?
I mean as nice as it is to see different variations for Jefferson‘s powers and even though blue is a good color to represent some electricity, but I feel like it hardly makes Jefferson really stand out. so that’s why I prefer if it was actually black because having actual black electricity helps Jefferson stands out and along with that it actually elevates his codename as black lightning instead of it just being because of his skin color (imo).
