This is a spoiler-free review of the first two episodes of Marvel's Cloak and Dagger, premiering June 7 on Freeform. What happens when one moment bonds you to another person for life, meaning that no matter where you are, physically and emotionally, you are forever linked by tragedy? Marvel’s Cloak & Dagger explores this story in a raw and poignant way - presenting a tale that is sometimes heartbreaking, but still gives hope for another promising young adult series for Freeform. Set in post-Katrina New Orleans, Cloak & Dagger is an adaptation of characters created by Bill Mantlo and artist Ed Hannigan in 1982. Tyrone Johnson/Cloak (Aubrey Joseph) and Tandy Bowen/Dagger (Olivia Holt) are two teenagers who gained their powers as children after a Roxxon Corporation accident (Roxxon is the only real nod to the Marvel Cinematic Universe so far - there are thankfully no heavy-handed nods to "the incident" here).
