Call/Response

I'm SO glad tha Marvel brings current culture and race politics into this show through this episode!! I'm tired of the complainers moaning that their shows are too political. If television and graphic novels are an art form, then there MUST be a social impact and reflection of the world we live in! This show is doing it, albeit from a young adult perspective, which in this day and age is even MORE important! Also, thanks for spelling out the krewe culture!! More conscious storytelling please!

The origin story is slow building, but there is finally some pay-off in this episode. It's refreshing to see superheroes struggling to figure out their powers without agonizing over how different they are or how they don't fit in with normal people. The complementary nature of their powers, personalities and skills draws them together in such a way you can't help but want them to succeed. This show is also a fascinating look at how super powers don't compensate for the social disadvantages of race or poverty, and how those struggles inform how they take on their respective adversaries.

They don't have a romantic relationship but instead have a budding friendship. The further I get, the more I get hooked on the show. The pain that surrounds these characters is heartbreaking and real. The only thing I wish is that the action be intensified. Other than that, this show is a winner!!!

Aubrey Joseph is an awesome actor, and I look forward to seeing him getting better parts in the future.

Blaming the writers, this episode ended the series for me. Social and especially political agenda messages by the writers made its appearance in full force, and it is obvious that this is what will guide future episodes.

If I wanted to see/hear this crap, I'd watch the US main stream media.

Bail!

Tandy and Tyrone's second encounter is the through line of the fourth episode, which puts their relationship at the forefront of their respective personal dilemmas. There's finally payoff on multiple story arcs-Tandy's mom and her 'lawyer,' Tyrone's brother, and Tyrone maybe finally getting a cloak(?)-which are all teased out over the course of the episode. It's still heavy on the origin story tropes, but the storyline has fairly methodically built upon itself with each episode, and offers protagonists that are fairly atypical for superhero faire.
