Warning: Full spoilers for Marvel's Cloak and Dagger Season 1 finale below.
All throughout its first season, Cloak & Dagger attempted to do something Marvel hadn't really tried before. And for the most part, that made Freeform's first Marvel series a success.
While it is a younger-skewing comic book drama, the superhero/superpowers/vigilante aspects of the series were actually pushed to the background while the story focused instead on mature character stories told through the lens of real-world issues. That's no small task, especially when the show is set in New Orleans, a city filled with fraught racial politics. But despite its younger audience, Cloak & Dagger never pulled any punches in telling authentic stories of a young, white blonde woman using her appearance to easily con people out of money while escaping any kind of consequences, vs. a young, black man who, despite coming from a very wealthy, high class family and always following the rules, constantly finds himself on the wrong side of law enforcement because of his race.
