Black Lightning #2 by Brandon Thomas and Fico Ossio continues to spill out after the events of Absolute Power, which saw Amanda Waller remove the powers of all superfolk on Earth, as well as do devious deals with pals to protect the planet from other invasions. Now, it also continues to be DC Comics’ very own X-Men book, tracking down people suddenly exhibiting unknown and unfamiliar powers and taking them to a place where they can be studied and trained so as not to harm others. But it deliberately doubles down on the mutant menace tropes with Councilman Harriman.
Jay Harriman was a member of the Sons Of Liberty, a secret American ultra-patriotic paramilitary organization that sought for the overthrow of the United States government, and was killed by group member Agent Liberty. Is this Harriman the same man revived or a relative?
Either way, with “Amanda Waller was right” reflecting Quentin Quire’s “Magneto Was Right” and “No More Metas” reflecting Scarlet Witch’s “No More Mutants”, Black Lightning is getting a little bit meta about its metas.
With Superman being “the good one”…
