The Superhero Show Show #362

Black Lightning Shocks the Police

On an all-new episode of The Superhero Show Show, the Taste Buds discuss the fourth season premiere of Black Lightning!

On a very special The Superhero Show Show, Cassie and the Boyz review the latest episode of Black Lightning! We already know that it’s the final season – at least for this iteration – which means now we get to see how this Book will close. And the closing opens with a bang, as a none-too-happy Jefferson is not just above the law, but against the law. How does this CW show deal with not just police violence against citizens, but citizen violence against the police. And hears the kicker…the police already know that Jefferson did it. Meanwhile, Tobias Whale is back in town, and is becoming…Lex Luthor? Or maybe closer to Max Lord. That can’t be good!

If that wasn’t enough, the Taste Buds also discuss the most recent episodes of Resident Alien, Riverdale, WandaVision, and Snowpiercer!

And then, the moment everyone has been waiting for: the season wide awards for the first season of X-Men: The Animated Series! In part 3 of a 3-part wrap-up, the Friends hand out their awards for the whole first season, including MVP, Best Villain, and Best Battle. And most importantly, getting the wrap-up done means that next week they can start working on X-Men season 2! All of that, and so much more, on an all-new episode of The Superhero Show Show!
