Black Lightning returns to our television screens in February. In preparation we’ve taken a look back at season 3 to discuss everything that was going on with the series. We focus on how the show continues to address topical issues as we also discuss the series’ new, post-Crisis position in the Arrowverse. We talk about returning faces like Painkiller and also new ones such as Gravedigger. We don’t pull any punches as we discuss the departure of Chief Henderson. We also talk about what we expect out of season 4.
In this week’s five-minute controversy we discuss whether the depiction of orcs in D&D is racist.
This week Mike and James join the cast.

Before Black Lightning season 3 premieres next week, we do our review of season 2. We’re one cast member short this time, but that doesn’t mean that we haven’t jam packed the episode full of all the careful analysis, witty banter, and overall geeky hijinks of any other episode of The 42cast. We discuss the villainy of Tobias Whale, the awesomeness of the Pierce family, and discuss how well the social commentary worked. We also go into discussing the season overall and where the Markovian storyline could be heading. 
Black Lightning’s back to protect the people of Freeland, and The 42cast is back to give you your weekly dose of awesome entertainment. This week we talk about the first season of this latest DC CW superhero series. As always we talk about the heroes and the villains, but this time we also talk about what makes this series stand out amongst all of the other DC series. We also give our hopes for a second season and get a little schooling in Black Lightning’s comic roots.
