Class. 'Cause not many others can work the plainclothes hero look. The Question, maybe. You could say Constantine, but he's atypical anyway. So is Dr. Occult, for that matter. Chances are that someone will put him back in tights, but I'm digging the straight-no-chaser stance while I can.

How much do I love seeing Black Lightning standing tall and proud with the DC's holy trinity! I'm so glad that he's in the new JLA...although, I kind of wish that he maintained his old look a bit more than he has. I see Black Lightning as an iconic character in his own right. I think it's okay to make him look different, but, let's stop with the costume changes already! God! How much do I love seeing Black Lightning standing tall and proud with the DC’s holy trinity!

His little cameo in issue # 4 is just the beginning because I know that was him on the last page of JSA #1 where Batman, and Sandman, Starman and an unidentifed (by Geoff Johns) league member are standing outside Arkham Asylum. I am telling you, it doesn't get much better than a Ttitan and two of the Outsiders as JLA members. Now all we need is Cyborg to actually join Arsenal on the team (as they have hinted) and my JLA roster would be close to completion (Nightwing and Donna Troy would have to join for my Geekasm to be complete) You just wait my friends, because another hero will be joining them (hopefully soon) and that someone is Geo - Force!

It's really cool that he declined membership all those years ago and now he's backon the team. Black lightning and Arsenal are my two favorite additions to the new team.
