Black Lightning 1×07: “Equinox: The Book of Fate”
Down in the bunker, Anissa is already getting into it with her mom as Lynn checks her injuries. Lynn doesn’t want her being a superhero, saying that it is a life of pain and sacrifice, and that she knows what Anissa is going through.
“Do you have powers?” Anissa shoots back.
Um, excuse you. Don’t be rude. 
Tumblr media
This is not your mother’s first rodeo. She’s seen firsthand what this life looks like and she’s concerned for you.
Gambi is back on the lying train again, trying to paint Lynn’s attack as an isolated incident when he knows full well it was Lady Eve’s people. This time, however, Jefferson’s not buying it.
“Why didn’t you tell me Tobias was back in Freeland?”
Oooh, you’re in trouble!
Tumblr media
Gambi says that he’s trying to protect him from himself by going after Tobias. He doesn’t want Jefferson doing something he’ll regret. That might’ve carried a bit more weight had he not proceeded to take out Joey Toledo himself. I don’t know what kind of business operation Gambi has going with Lady Eve, but they clearly have a lot of history. He speaks as if they’re partners, saying that Tobias is going to ruin the “ecosystem we’ve worked so hard to build.”
Tumblr media
Jefferson says he doesn’t trust him anymore and I can’t really blame him. (But then he still entrusts him with Lynn’s safety anyway.)
Henderson asks Lynn if her research may be the target of third-party organizations and she’s like, “No, I just look at the effects of addiction on the brain. Where’s the money in that?”
Um … Green Light? 
Tumblr media
If you’re trying to market a really powerful drug and get kids hooked on substances like Green Light, then your research would be really interesting.
I’ve also got to give sketch artists credit in general. Trying to recreate the likeness of a person you’ve never seen before is quite a skill, especially because it’s based on hearsay and you have to keep modifying it until it’s right. And even then, witnesses’ memories are faulty. The picture may be only as accurate as you can remember. What if it’s not right?
Lady Eve got her hands on that picture real fast! And Gambi is listed as “The Tailor” in her phone. She tells him that “[t]he cleaners are on their way.”
After easily defeating a guy hopped up on Green Light in the ring, Tobias becomes suddenly bothered about the drug when he realizes that “dead customers don’t pay.” We’re so touched by your concern. 
Tumblr media
He says that Green Light is too volatile a substance and requests a meeting with Lady Eve.
I still cannot believe that neither Lynn nor Jefferson even considered the possibility of the girls inheriting his powers. This should’ve been on your radar from time! Like, it wasn’t even a passing thought? I mean, we still don’t know how Jefferson got his powers because this isn’t exactly a superhero origin story, but maybe since the girls got this far without any signs, they thought they were in the clear? That Jefferson was just a one-off genetic mutation and that it couldn’t happen again?
How do you plan to keep this child off the streets now? She was getting arrested long before she had powers! 😆😂
They don’t want to rule out Jen either. They say that both Jen and Anissa will have to be tested.
“Is this the electrician?”
Henderson’s got jokes. At least he seems better about working with Black Lightning now. He asks if there’s anyone else in Freeland like Black Lightning with special abilities and mentions the destruction of the Confederate statue.
And now Jefferson knows that it was Anissa. 
Tumblr media
She really shouldn’t have done that with so many witnesses around. Now she’s going to be on everybody’s radar!
At least Jefferson’s warned him that Tobias is back.
Aww, Anissa’s all gung-ho about being a superhero. She’s like, “We can do this and this, and this and that, and you can train me!” And Dad’s like, “Hold up!”
“No, Dad. You’re not ready.”
Darn straight. She’s already been using these powers. Ultimately, it’s better to help her control them than try and put them away.
Tumblr media
On her way out, Jefferson asks her where she got the box with Alvin’s research. She confesses that she was just trying to figure out what had happened to her, but he reminds her that that research got Alvin killed. After what happened with Lynn at the lab, he says she has to warn David Poe.
So, it looks like Lady Eve is a mortician.
Tumblr media
Gambi tells Lady Eve that Tobias is out of control and she agrees to remind him of his place by sending Gambi to take out Toledo.
Jennifer is already becoming suspicious of the tension between Anissa and Jefferson. Yeah, you won’t be able to keep Jen out of the loop forever!
Tumblr media
Anissa goes to visit Lynn back at the bunker to apologize and she learns the real reason for her parents’ split: Jefferson’s continued activities as Black Lightning. Lynn says that in the superhero life, everyone gets a happy ending except you.
Anissa, however, says she’s willing to sacrifice her happiness if it means freeing Freeland from the 100 and the crooked police.
Watching Gambi kill off Toledo and his men was not a fun time. You’re supposed to be better than this!
Also, the question I always have in scenes like these: why is it that when the bad guys know they’re being attacked, they never have any kind of getaway plan? They just wait for their assailant to find them!
Tumblr media
Seeing Anissa come home in tears after she learned that David Poe was killed was so sad. She’s starting to see the consequences of living the superhero life: that anyone close to or associated with you is a target, and that you can’t always save them.
Lynn finally tells Jefferson that he should train Anissa because they both know she’s not going to stop.
Henderson tells Black Lightning about Toledo’s murder and says it looks like was about to open a jazz club the next day. Chances are that’s where they’ll find Tobias.
Again, we’re shown the flashback of Alvin Pierce being murdered while Jefferson hides under the bed and I don’t know about everyone else, but something about Kid Jefferson’s acting just feels off. Obviously, I know that he’s supposed to stay quiet so that these men don’t find him, but he whispers “Dad” like he’s trying to wake him up in the middle of the night. I’d anticipated a lot more fear: crying, shaking, maybe covering his eyes because it’s too horrible to watch. But instead, there’s just this sense of distance, as if he’s watching this all happen from far away. Like his father’s murder is on a TV screen.
Lynn has asked Gambi to design Anissa a suit and Anissa is just in awe. Lynn tells her that she does get it and knows that Anissa can’t sit idly by while other people are being pushed around.
Jefferson gets the jump on Tobias for the first time and the ensuing fight goes south pretty fast. Tori is shot in the back and Tobias is dragged out by his men, still calling her name. I actually felt so bad for them. She was clearly Tobias’ closest family and his men just left her for dead.
But their plan to get Lady Eve was so devious! Knowing that they couldn’t make a direct move on her without permission, Tori and Tobias sent a bunch of hit men after her with electric guns, frying her and her minions. Because of the burns, the police think it was Black Lightning. Well, there goes his alliance with Henderson!
Tumblr media
And because of what happened to Tori, now Jefferson’s going to have Tobias and the police on his back. They’ll be after him with a vengeance!
Jefferson agrees to train Anissa, but says that they’re both going to make mistakes. His eagerness to get Tobias ended with Tori’s death and he wants Anissa to be better than him.
Nothing could have prepared me for that ending. When Lala came back, I screamed. Did Lady Eve bring him back? He just sat up in that motel room like nothing happened!
Tumblr media
And Lawanda appearing and becoming a tattoo on his chest … that’s really dark. I don’t know how I feel about that. On the one hand, it’s a reminder of the people that he’s killed. If every person you kill shows up as a mark on your body, then you’re haunted by them forever. You’re not allowed to forget them or what you did to them. But at the same time, it almost looks like a trophy, like what Killmonger did in Black Panther. It’s a kill log on your body.
Tumblr media
So now Lady Eve is dead, Jefferson’s got a new hit on him, Henderson’s no longer willing to work with him, and Anissa’s trying to become her dad’s new protégée, all while being a target of the police as herself. They’re going to have to figure out how to clear Jefferson’s name! And if Lala’s back, they’re in some deep doo-doo.

The Life of Tobias
Tumblr media
First Appearance: DC Comic's first edition of Black Lightning in 1977
Creators: Tony Isabela and Trevor Von Eeden (comic book writers and artists)
Tobias Whale is an African American  kingpin with albinism, who works his way up from the rackets to head the Metropolis branch of the 100.  A school teacher named Jefferson Pierce speaks out against the 100's drug trafficking, and, as a response, they make an example of one of his students: Earl Clifford. Joey Toledo leads his men into attacking Earl and hits him with a car. Seeking to avenge the murdered student and receiving help from his tailor friend Peter Gambi, Pierce becomes Black Lightning and attacks Joey and his men. After defeating his henchmen, Joey Toledo is grabbed by Black Lightning, who arranges for Toledo to meet him at Garfield High School's gymnasium to inform on the 100 to him.
When Black Lightning meets with Joey Toledo, Malcolm Merlyn  also appears after being hired by Toledo to kill Black Lightning. Their fight is crashed by Talia al Ghul and the league of Assassins, who are after Merlyn since he left the group after failing to kill Batman. The resulting battle ended with Joey Toledo being killed by a League of Assassins operative. Afterwards, Pierce is so successful in avenging Earl's death that Tobias Whale is sent to jail.
After breaking out of prison some months later, Whale teams up with Syonide II to distribute a new highly addictive drug. The drug's formula was supposedly in the possession of a woman named Violet Harper. Tobias sends Syonide to retrieve the formula. Unable to gain any information or find any trace of the formula, Syonide kills Harper. Violet Harper is later revived when an Aurakle possesses her lifeless body, and comes to be known as Halo.  Once he learned of Harper's resurrection, Tobias assumed that she must have memorized the formula. But since Harper had no memories from before her death, a frustrated Syonide killed her parents during the Outsiders' fight with Tobias Whale's henchmen.

December Comics Round-Up
We're hitting the DC Explosion, and then right after that, the DC Implosion!
Action Comics (444-479) (1975-1978)
We're getting into longer storylines, which is fun! And I'm also enjoying all the little mundane "day in the life" backup shorts, they're better snapshots of characterization than most of the main storylines.
Superman (284-322) (1975-1978)
Starting to exam the balance of Clark vs Superman, and it's tipping more towards even these days when before it was pretty firmly 1:9 Clark to Superman. I'm very much not a fan of rehabilitated villians falling back into old ways. There's pretty much never a good reason for it beyond "the writer thought it'd be cool to have this guy be evil again" and it really exemplifies the worst trait of comics: status quo is king. Any development can and will be deleted at any time. And guess what! That shitty story was exactly when Martin Pasko (my enemy) took over as the writer! And then he continues to pound out the stupidest stories like he's competing with Bob Haney (my enemy) for the title of "the worst. And now it's the end of 1977 and we are bringing back kryptonite into the world. I guess some writers got tired of not having an easy out.
Superman Family (175-187) (1976-1978)
Lucy Lane has showed back up, once again only in Jimmy's story. This time superman got to meet her and see what's up, but still we have no idea if Lois even knows she's alive, I'm chewing the drywall folks. Out of the collection of stories I'm enjoying Kara's and Krypto's the most, loving Krypto's time as a movie star complete with a romance with his costar (tho that seems pretty over now, rip Krypto one day I'm sure you'll be able to keep a girlfriend)
Black Lightning (1-6) (1977-1978)
Rereading this as a part of the superman mythos instead of a stand alone is pretty neat, and I agree with all the folks who wrote in asking about a Rose\Thorn cameo, that would be great (I do not remember if this happened or not). It was interesting to see Talia with ties in suicide slums thru Peter Gambi, the first time I read I was just excited to see her (still am) but wasn't thinking at all about her future activity in Metropolis.
1st Issue Special (13) (1977) | The Return of the New Gods (12-19) (1977-1978)
Between this run, Cosmic Odyssey, New Gods 89, and Mr Miracle 77 and 89, this run is the most Kirby-esque. It does a really good job of picking up that torch. I did forget how very thoroughly they killed Darkseid at the end of it, tho it certainly didn't stick.
Mister Miracle (19-25) (1977-1978)
Of the Steve's I absolutely prefer Gerber to Engelhardt. I just do not like Steve E. But Steve G introduced Ethos who is rad and wrote a Much better Barda, and I would have been interested to see where he went with Alianna. I had forgotten about Scott's sort of merging/becoming a motherbox, and I'm sad that it seems like future Mr Miracle authors also forgot about this because it was one of the neatest things to come out of this run.
Super-Team Family (1-15) (1975-1978)
I picked up this run as a team-up mag, not a reprint mag, and deffo Not a Challengers of the Unknown save Henry Kissinger from the bermuda triangle and pretend he's some sort of angel of peace and goodwill towards man. We get back to team-ups about halfway through, but I'm going to need dc to leave Jean Loring alone, they cannot fucking be trusted with her. The last issue is fun tho! New Gods and Flash team up! Once again Barry has been nerfed for the sake of a team up (these authors just do Not understand how fast he is) but not too terribly and it was still v enjoyable.
World's Finest Comics (228-246) (1975-1977)
It is sort of impressive how much I hate every part of issue 228's main story. Every. Little. Part. I meant to finish this up to 1978 by the end of the year but it's wild how Bob Haney (my enemy) saps my will to read comics. What even was the Kor-el storyline? It's turned into an anthology, so I do get to cleanse my palate with Green Arrow and Black Canary stories at least.
Superboy (207-235) (1975-1978)
I understand that the story's that they write will always reflect the values of the times, but does a universe set 1,000 years in the future have to have the exact same values? Its just unimaginative. Also bls save me from reverse racism stories. ...hey.. I think it's pretty messed up to send Infinity Man back to spinning thru the tortures Infinity of time that broke him in the first place. Just saying. This comic (all comics) has such an awfully punitive bent.
Karate Kid (1-15) (1976-1978)/Kamandi (58) (1978)
Not so much a fan of this one.... they nerfed Val, he's having trouble with basic stuff and its especiallyobvious reading it side by side the superboy/Legion title where he is his usual badass self, and i'm sorta annoyed that they axed his flightring in the first issue, and it's orientalist as hell, like. These villians. This art. Whats wrong with you?
Adventure Comics (438-455) (1975-1978)
Sad the the Spectre's run seems to have ended, happy that aquaman's has started! The 70s Spectre was sooo much fun he's just murdering everyone in increasingly creative ways (turned a guy into glass and shattered him, brought a guy's taxidermy bears to life to eat him, turned a guy into wood then took the time to slice him up at a table saw) 60s and 80s Spectre could never. Wrt aquaman, 444 confirms that both aqualad and aquababy are nameless, then as of 446 aquababy gets his name! Let's see how long he lasts. 452 and he's outta here! Aquababy down, and I'm gonna make sure that Arthur follows him, what a dipshit, and Aqualad still doesn't have a name. Aqualad's backup feels a little out of character for me, like, he learns a group of pacifists killed his father so he immediately decides to fuck up their whole town? Implied to be willing to kill them? That's not my boy. I was a little disappointed to go back to superboy in smallville stories, but the first one was tiny babs w superpowers! So everything is forgiven.
Flash GL backups (217-243) (1972-1976)/Green Lantern (90-100) (1976-1978)
Forgot that Green Lantern had a back up feature in Flash! So I went back and read all these! Fun to have Hal back in space, tho i did enjoy all of his green arrow team ups, and also yay, Itty's here!
Aquaman (57-63) (1977-1978)
This was just none stop let's beat on Arthur fest and I'm not gonna lie, he so deserved it but even i was feeling a bit bad for him at the end. Mera's adventure to try and save Arthur Jr was badass and heartbreaking, and it ended with the trip reunited, and Aqualad said he found his name but while he found his parents names (also Thar and Berra? Really? Compared to Arthur and Mera?) in his adventure backup he sure didn't find his. Also they never actually say what name he found sooo.....
The Brave and the Bold (117-132) (1975-1977)
Okay I'm gonna need Haney to stop writing about any indigenous person ever. For real. He needs to shut his mouth. Then issue 124 was the most bewildering 4th wall breaking, author insert issue I've read in a while. Deffo implied that the writers/artists are in the same universe but still controlling everything that happens around them.
Teen Titans (44-53) (1976-1978)
I've got mixed feelings about this run after the hiatus. Love Mal's tenure as the Hornblower, hate that it's so short with no explanation (he just "loses the horn??" Bullshit) V annoyed with how they handled aqualad (he's psychosomatically falling into comas because of his "inferiority complex" comparing himself to the other titans?? Bullshit) but I do enjoy the big three parter at the end that has just about every teen hero out there. Mostly, I can see why it got canceled again: it just meanders without any thought to what's going on, the stories aren't that interesting, and they randomly nerf characters all over the board.
The Phantom Stranger (35-41) (1975-1976)
Well at least we got Cassandra back for the last two issues. And it was fun to have a Deadman team up! Overall this definitely fell into the "too preachy" category in the later half. (I mean. Its the Phantom Stranger. His whole thing is preachy. But still, its more fun when he's hanging out with actual people like Cassandra (sorry Boston u don't count apparently))
Weird Western Tales (34-38) (1976-1977)
Whelp these last five issues of Jonah in Weird West were more of the same fun romp, and I will be excited to read him in his own mag in January!
Shazam! (17-35) (1975-1978)
The last couple of issues suddenly got a new artist who was all about the more modern 70s style rather than the traditional golden age that they were doing before. Very much enjoyed Freddy beating the shit out of captain nazi. Overall I'm honestly meh about the Marvels as a separate universe, I'm looking forward to what'll happen in new earth.
Ricard Dragon, Kung Fu Fighter (1-18) (1975-1977)
Woo-hoo Shiva's first appearance! Also Ben! (Sorry Richard ur a distant third) I'm really glad that there was never a hint of romance for Shiva, and everytime somebody ventured it she shut them down cold. And her love for really shitty puns, I liked that too. The whole thing was wildly Orientalist tho, like wow these authors do Not think there is a difference between China and Japan. Basically every minority gets the short end of the stick (sorry that u keep getting shot or grievous headwounds, Ben) but it is pretending to revere east Asian cultures so it's ridiculous that they don't actually know anything about them.
The Secret Society of Super-Villians (1-17) (1976-1978)
Finally an ensemble with a plan and a plot!! Its a little like a proto suicide squad if the squad had no one around to ride herd on them! And Darkseid is there! I enjoyed the first arc, but after Darkseid skipped town things got a little aimless. Lots of crossover activity with Super-Team then JSA then Freedom Fighters, and I know it got canceled and it's not their fault, but the last two unpublished issues are pretty much the Freedom Fighters show with nothing for the Secret Society.
Starfire (1-8) (1976-1977)
I will admit that i picked this up solely for the name of it. The first two issues are by Michelinie (one of my fave bronze age writers) and he sets up such a cool story! I think this Starfire and Kory would get along so well! Then some other asshole picks it up and it becomes 10x more uncomfortably sexual (nothing overt, SA just starts being a more prevalent trope) and all her lieutenants don't respect her and are only following her because they want to fuck her and are really gross about it.... why would they do this to me... the last issue had a new writer team and felt like it was gonna be fun but they deffo got unexpectedly canceled, so that's the last of her, rip.
Kobra (1-7) (1976-1977)
Oh God this motherfucker was written by Martin Pasko (my enemy) way to start on a bad note. I saw Kirby and got excited, but apparently this is right when he was leaving DC, so Pasko took it over and rewrote dialog and changed character designs. And another Jason B enters the ring! So far we have Jason Bard, Jason Blood, and now Jason Burr! Okay, it starts off retty good. The premise is pretty fun, and it's wild how the story beats follow Danny Temple's storyline in Robin 93 (not so surprising, given that he was supposed to get a run as Kid Kobra) but with like 500% less bio-essentialism. Like, we've got good twin\evil twin but it is strongly nurture over nature. Also I'm enjoying that good twin Jason just Does Not Like the cops, that's an unexpected dynamic. But then, of course, Martin Pasko (my enemy) starts off strong then flops when he has more than three issues to work with, i hate him what is this mess?? Double is so unnecessary! I mean I guess it's good to find out how Randu ended up blind, but at what cost?? Mel you did not deserve Pasko's bullshit I'm so sorry babe.
1st Issue Special (8) (1975)/The Warlord (1-10) (1976-1977)
I really like the combination of fantasy and sci-fi in Skartaris, but it does fall very much into the tropes and pitfalls of the time. Still pretty enjoyable, and I'm gonna have a good time reading it, I think.
Showcase (94-96) (1977)
New doom patrooool!! Love to meet Arani under different circumstances, wild that she fully did have a romance w Niles in this version. I can see why it didn't get extended, as it lost the "outsiders and weirdos" charm that the original had.
I did mean to get everything to 1978, but I ended up spending more time with friends and family than reading comics over the holidays (terrible I know)

rewatching black lightning now and GAMBI FUCKIN SUCKS

It took a while but I finally finished
A Story request: miles morales meeting black lightning & his family/team, basically played out like in the super girl episode 18 world’s finest. Miles goes through the dimensional portal wormhole with the spider gang Gwen, Ham, Noir, Peni, Peter B., Hobie Brown, Margot Kess going after the Spot; where Spot sends Miles to another earth and Miles falls out of the portal into the arrow-verse prime earth portal:
From there on, he saves Jennifer Pierce (while she’s patrolling as Lightning) when she got hit by fighting with a meta-villain and swings her to safety on the rooftop of a building. Both, skeptical at first however, both unmasked & introduced themselves; as soon as then miles mentioned he’s Spider Man, Jen doesn’t recognize that name; leading to miles asking more questions (if she knows the other marvel heroes like iron man, Thor, hulk, star-lord, falcon, black panther, dr strange) with Jen also not recognizing any of those names and then Miles realizes he’s in a different Earth and he needs Jen’s help.
Miles and Jennifer then go to the Anissa & Grace’s apartment, miles quickly searches on the computer for anything: like for SHIELD, Avengers Tower, or Stark Industries or his friends & family with no success. Then Jefferson, Lynn, Anissa, Gambi, Khalil, Grace, Brandon marshall, Erica moran, and TC enter the apartment to see if Jen’s alright from her fight and then they see Miles and asking Jen who he is, then Miles introduces himself to the group.
Then Jennifer talks about Miles being from another Earth. Everybody is surprised about that, especially Gambi & TC, being fascinated with the multiverse. Miles talks about the multiverse being real. Jefferson can agree with that since he experience being different earths as well meeting Team Flash. Miles then talks about his SpiderGang, the Avengers, GOTG. He also talks about being Spider-Man:
Lynn: Sorry a what-Man?
(Miles shows off his powers by jump up and crawls all over the ceiling which impresses and creeps some of the group members)
TC: okay that is so cool.
Anissa: (sarcasm) yeah and not totally creepy at all.
Miles gets down from the ceiling, speaks on his other powers: camouflage, electricity, and his spider-sense. Even showing his wrist web shooters when asked if he shoots webs from his “rear” side. Everybody, in return, shows off their powers and origins to Miles.
Khalil: I know 23 martial arts.
Miles: oh that’s dope
Khalil: but I got brainwashed by ASA and I have the poison touch.
Miles: okay less dope.
After getting to know each other. The team agree to help get miles home (since his dimensional goober watch [created by Hobie] is broken from hitting a wall from swinging in saving Jen) and will get the watch fixed. Meanwhile they need miles help in fighting against Tobias Whale, Gravedigger, and Odell’s ASA army.
Miles and Jen developed a friendship even Jen taking Miles out to get burgers while Khalil gets slightly jealous. Later on, Miles and Khalil have a friendly sparring session:
Miles - so who am I sparring with you or Painkiller.
Khalil: you better hope, it’s me
Khalil wins the match & miles learns from him on how to fight better. Miles tells Khalil that he & Jen are just friends / and that miles has his own “Jennifer” - Gwen. Because of this, Miles and Khalil became friends.
Throughout the story, Miles gets into a personal talks with Khalil & the Pierce family: talking about superhero responsibilities (miles taking over spider-man after his Peter Parker died); the villains they previously or currently face (ie Looker, Dr Jace, Tobias \ Kingpin, Thanos, & green goblin, the Spot). Talking about family (Miles’s parents, him being Afro Latino). Miles, Khalil, The Pierces talk about dealing with loved ones’ death. For Miles: it was his uncle Aaron, For Khalil: it was his mother & his older brother, For Jefferson: it was his father. Miles also talks about Gwen and his Spider-Gang, also talking about the events that happened in across the spider verse. While he forgave them, he’s still mad at them and has a hard time trusting them mainly Peter B. Peni And Gwen.
While superpatrolling w/ Khalil & Jen; all three face off Tobias’s meta human Masters of Disaster: Shakedown, Coldsnap, and New Wave. Which fails as the trio gets minor injures & Miles get captured by the goons.
At the markovian base: Odell, Tobias, & G.D. try to interrogate Miles (who’s tied up and locked in a cell) and trying to take a blood test in gaining/studying his powers. With Tobias trying to unmask him but miles shocks him. Odell seems fascinated with Miles, especially figuring out he’s from another Earth, & intends to experiment on him for his Spider DNA. Before the blood test could start, B.L. & his team attack the base and free Miles from his cell.
With the rest of the team taking on Odell, the ASA, & Tobias; Miles, Jennifer, Brandon, and Khalil tag-team in taking on Gravedigger. Gravedigger manages to secretly escape the chaos while Tobias, Odell, ASA are all defeated & arrested.
Gambi fixes the goober-watch and Miles says goodbye to everyone while going inside the portal to where he meets up with the SpiderGang in his own universe where he talks about his journey and then continues with his mission in stopping Spot.
also cameos from the flash, supergirl, batwoman (Ryan); where Jefferson talks about the markovian events and about Miles.
I like it. This time i will make sure it won't be deleted 😅
Fan-Cast for MCU Miles Morales? Or just miles from the spider verse

DC Masterlist
Tumblr media
MISC
The misc masterlist will feature characters I don’t plan to write about often. That list will be created eventually, but as of now we’ll just focus on the masterlists below!
-
→ Titans
This list includes characters from the 2018 series Titans. Works about Dick Grayson and/or Kory Anders will frequent more, but I do still write about Conner Kent, Gar Logan, Rachel Roth, Donna Troy, and Jason Todd. You can request other characters such as Hawk and Dove, Tim Drake, or Blackfire but they will be in the misc masterlist.
→ The Losers
This list includes characters such as (Jake) Jensen, Carlos “Cougar” Alvarez, (Franklin) Clay, (William) Roque, Linwood “Pooch” Porteous, and Aisha Al-Fadhil.
→ Black Lightning
This list includes characters such as Jennifer Pierce, Anissa Pierce, Lynn Stewart, Grace Choi, Jefferson Pierce, Khalil Payne, Issa Williams, and Peter Gambi.
→ Justice League
This masterlist includes Henry Cavill’s Superman, Ezra Miller’s Flash, Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman, Ben Affleck’s Batman and Jason Momoa’s Aquaman!
→ Young Justice
Including characters from the 2010 DC cartoon show Young Justice. Including characters such as Conner Kent (Superboy), Wally West (Kid Flash), Robin/Nightwing (Dick Grayson), Kaldur’ahm (AquaLad), Karen Beecher (Bumblebee), Jaime Reyes (Blue Beetle), and Virgil Hawkins (Static Shock).
→ My Adventures With Superman
Here I will write about Clark Kent/Superman. If you would like anything written about Lois Lane or Jimmy Olsen, you can request it but it will go in the misc masterlist.
→ Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman
I really only planned to write about Clark Kent/Superman, Jack Milner and Jimmy Olsen but you can request works about other characters. If I fulfill your request, those works will go into the misc masterlist.
→ Smallville
Okay, you caught me! I haven’t actually watched the show yet. I’ve only seen short clips. For now, I only plan to write about Clark Kent. This list may possibly be updated after I watch the show.
