☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis collection reprints the 2009 miniseries Black Lightning: Year One, which retells the origin of DC's first major Black superhero. Written by Jen Van Meter with art by Cully Hamner, the story follows Jefferson Pierce as he returns to his crime-ridden hometown of Suicide Slum and takes on the mantle of Black Lightning, using his electrical powers to fight both street-level corruption and personal demons.
In "Part 1" of Black Lightning: Year One, Jefferson Pierce returns to his old neighborhood—Suicide Slum in Metropolis—only to confront the harsh reality of the violence and decay that have taken root there. Written by Jen Van Meter and brought to life by Cully Hamner’s striking interior art and Laura Martin’s vivid colors, this issue captures the weight of a man returning home to a place that’s changed, and the burden of facing it all anew. The cover, also by Cully Hamner, sets the tone with a stark, grounded vision of the city’s underbelly.
In "Part 1" of *Black Lightning: Year One*, Jefferson Pierce returns to Suicide Slum in Metropolis, the neighborhood he once fled, now confronted with the harsh reality of its decay and violence. The streets he once knew have become a battleground, and the weight of his past begins to pull him back into a life he thought he’d left behind.
