"Black Lightning" Season 3 "The Book of Occupation: Chapter Four": Can a Shattered Freeland Be Saved? [PREVIEW]

We've officially made it to one of the greatest months of the year: October – which means The CW's "Arrowverse" shows have started sticking some sweet superhero three-point landings with the returns fans have seen so far. Arrow is shuffling off the network's programming coil after an abbreviated 10-episode eighth season (making The Flash the "elder states-show" of the "Arrowverse"), Ruby Rose-starrer Batwoman joined the family alongside Supergirl and expanded the Batman mythos in CW's DCU. Let's not forget a looming "Crisis on Infinite Earths" crossover that will change things dramatically, including Black Lightning this time around – and yes, they didn't forget about our crew from DC's Legends of Tomorrow.

But before we get to this year's multiverse-shattering mega-event, Jefferson (Cress Williams), Lynn (Christine Adams), and the rest of "Team Black Lightning" have a shattered Freeland to save – but can the family come together on the best way to get the job done?

Or is splintering our heroes from within exactly what Agent Odell (Bill Duke) had planned all along?

"Black Lightning" season 3, episode 4 "The Book of Occupation: Chapter Four": CHALLENGES ABOUND – Jefferson (Cress Williams) faces new challenges due to the shocking state of Freeland. Lynn (Christine Adams) finds herself under intense pressure as she desperately tries to find a solution to the continuing crisis in Freeland. Meanwhile, Anissa (Nafessa Williams) continues her work at the clinic. Lastly, Jennifer (China-Anne McLain) finds her confidence shaken. The episode was written by Adam Giaudrone and directed Mary Lou Belli.

If that's not enough to charge your batteries, here's a look at The CW's preview images for this week's episode:

CBS Studios/DC Comics

While Black Lightning may have just started its third season, it's never too early to look to 2020 – which is when Let's Make a Deal host and actor (and the baddest man on Chappelle Show… sorry, Charlie Murphy, and rest in peace, Rick James) Wayne Brady is set to join the Arrowverse series. Brady is set to play Tyson Spikes aka Gravedigger and is expected to premiere after the massive "Crisis on Infinite Earths" crossover event.

Brady's Spikes/Gravedigger is described as a World War II-era member of the U.S. military who became a "super soldier" after a secret experiment gifted him with enhanced strength, agility, tactical genius and hand-to-hand combat expertise. After the war, Spikes defected to the country of Markovia rather than return to a segregated America. His aim to create a sovereign land for metahumans within Markovia sets him on a collision course with the ASA and Black Lightning.
