“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, Sykes 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.
In addition to acting, Wayne Brady is the host of Let’s Make A Deal on CBS and a regular member of the troupe on Whose Line Is It Anyway?
Black Lightning Season 3 airs Mondays at 9PM ET/PT on The CW.
