Brook sits Steph down to tell her about the history of the one and only Black Lightning, and the way that this character inspired generations in and out of universe.

Other topics of note include why so many Black characters have electricity based powers, the character who Black Lightning barely edged out as DC's first headlining African American character, and President Lex Luthor.
