Black Lightning's Lady Eve unleashes her wrath on Tobias Whale in EW's first-look photo.

According to the character's official description, Lady Eve "serves as a bridge between Tobias Whale (played by L.A. rapper Marvin ‘Krondon’ Jones III) and a secret group of corrupt leaders.” Speaking to CBR, Jones went on to elaborate Whale's relationship to Lady Eve, saying, "Lady Eve is the only person of authority over him. It means something to him, I think ultimately because it’s a woman. I think ultimately his affinity for Lady Eve has to do with the fact that she’s kind of a mother figure to him — but she’s not his mother."
