What Has Happened So Far?
One of the biggest things that happened in the Black Lightning season 3 finale was the revelation about ASA and the metahuman. The biggest takeaway of the season was that ASA wasn’t the metahuman children they created. The time they were stabilized. In the final scenes of Black Lightning season 3, both Thunder and Lightning testified in front of congress.
There they testified about all the crimes ASA committed when they were at Freeland. Along with that, they also offered a brief-case full of confidential ASA documents. These documents were proof of their campaign ASA was running for creating an army of super-soldiers. They were experimenting on children on Freeland. This lead to an immediate dissolution of the ASA. The same congress committee investigated the incident on the land. They also authorized the funding for a boarding school that Dr. Lynn Stewart has proposed for. This was for the special needs of metahuman kids.
Black Lightning Season 4: What Is Coming Up?
In the fourth season, there are possibilities that Jefferson Pierce will be more involved. Jefferson Pierce is a beloved educator, a very respected citizen of Freeland, and the ex-husband of the doctor who was taking care of the school. Now Jefferson will help in managing the school when the school starts. Jefferson might even recruit some young metahumans to save the city. Only people who have the same motive will be recruited in the school.
The future will not have all the sunshine. ASA might shut down, and Agent Odell might go to prison bus Tobias Whale might come back to claim his seat on the throne of Freeland underworld. Minion Lala is currently in charge of the seat. He has now revived Lady Eve and the also the Shadow board. It seems less likely that the whole crown passing will be peaceful. Gravedigger is alive and free, so there is are a lot many challenges on the way for the heroes when Black Lightning Season 4 comes back.
