DC COMICS' NEW BLACK LIGHTNING

DC Comics has announced Black Lightning: Cold Dead Hands, a six-issue mini-series by writer Tony Isabella, who created the character with Trevor Von Eeden, and artist Clayton Henry.

Here's how DC describes the book:

"Don't expect a throwback to Isabella's previous time with the character. While the hallmarks of a good Black Lightning comic are all there, Jefferson's gone through some changes. He's still a teacher who works to be a positive force for his students both in and out of costume, but he's younger than he's ever been before -- around 28 years old. He's also not married and in a departure from the show, he doesn't have daughters. Jefferson does, however, still have a very big problem by the name of Tobias Whale.

"But Black Lightning's notorious adversary has gone through some redesigning as well. He's now fit, built like an athlete, and he's no longer an albino. But don't think it's made Tobias Whale any smaller of a problem for Jefferson or the city of Cleveland, in which the series is based. He's as ruthless and powerful as ever."
