Black Lightning suits

Two suits have been worn by Jefferson Pierce as the vigilante Black Lightning. They were created by Gambi.

First suit
Acting as a vigilante known as "Black Lightning", Gambi created Jefferson Pierce a protective suit to also conceal his identity. Jefferson eventually stopped using it when he retired from vigilantism.

Second suit
Choosing to pick back up vigilantism, Pierce went to see Gambi, who gave him a new suit he'd been working on.

Functions

 * Identity concealment: The primary purpose of the suits are to conceal Jefferson's identity from those that may recognize him. The second iteration's goggles can turn black in order to further conceal his identity.
 * Invincibility: While the first suit was fairly makeshift and constantly led to Jefferson being hurt, the second suit is capable of catching bullets with no injury to its user. He is still knocked about, but otherwise unharmed.
