!!! '''Alter ego:''' Dinah Drake (later Dinah Drake Lance)
!!! '''Species''': Human
!!! '''First appearance''': ''Flash Comics'' #86
''Black Canary'' was created by writer Creator/RobertKanigher and artist Carmine Infantino. She first appeared as a supporting character in ''Flash Comics #86'' (August 1947) where she was seemingly a villain plotting against Johnny Thunder. However, it was quickly revealed that [[TheMole she was actually a hero working undercover]] to expose criminals. Black Canary became something of a sidekick to Johnny Thunder for several stories, using her superior fighting skills to save the [[ComedicHero well-meaning but bumbling hero]] from danger.
By the end of the year, Black Canary proved to be more popular than Johnny Thunder, and his back-up feature became hers in ''Flash Comics #92'' (February, 1948). It was here that her SecretIdentity was finally revealed, as was the meaning of her CodeName. Dinah Drake was a raven-haired florist, who used a blond wig and flashy costume as a disguise while fighting crime in her native Gotham City. Her path frequently crossed that of her boyfriend, private detective Larry Lance. She also joined the ComicBook/JusticeSocietyOfAmerica and continued to be a part of that team even after their adventures ceased publication in 1951, at the end of UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfComicBooks.
In UsefulNotes/TheSilverAgeOfComicBooks, Black Canary was revived in 1963 as part of some of the first CrisisCrossover stories in comics history. The
In the early days of UsefulNotes/TheBronzeAgeOfComicBooks, Black Canary began dating fellow JLA member Oliver Queen a.k.a. ComicBook/GreenArrow. She was a regular part of his adventures with Franchise/GreenLantern and was developed by writer Dennis O'Neil into a more proactive, feminist character -- one who ran her own business, had her own solo adventures and chided Green Arrow for his possessive attitude and referring to her as "his girl". Indeed, she was so much a part of Green Arrow's life that she became a foster mother to his sidekick, Roy Harper a.k.a. Speedy, and it was she who got Roy treatment for his heroin addiction during the infamous "My ward is a junkie?!" incident.
Toward the end of UsefulNotes/TheBronzeAgeOfComicBooks, in an effort to explain why Dinah Drake didn't appear to be a day over 30 despite being well into her 60s, a {{Retcon}} in Franchise/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica revealed that the Black Canary we'd been seeing since the end of the [[UsefulNotes/TheSilverAgeOfComicBooks Silver Age]] wasn't Dinah Drake but was actually her daughter, Dinah Laurel Lance!
An Earth-Two SuperVillain called The Wizard used his powers to curse the infant Dinah with an uncontrollable scream (yes, yes... AWizardDidIt) and Black Canary asked her old friend Johnny Thunder to use [[GenieInABottle his magical genie pal The Thunderbolt]] to end the curse. The Thunderbolt was unable to break the spell, but was able to place the infant Dinah as a sort of HumanPopsicle in his home dimension until such time as a cure could be found. Years later, during the CrisisCrossover that killed her husband, Dinah Drake was critically injured by the radiation and The Thunderbolt then used his magic to put Dinah Drake's memories in the still-sleeping-but-now-adult body of her daughter (which had since then learned how to adapt to the once uncontrollable scream) and [[MindRape erase everyone else's memories so they wouldn't remember what happened]].
This confusing and creepy chain of events would be {{Ret Con}}ned again not too long after ''ComicBook/CrisisOnInfiniteEarths''. Now, the Lance family had a relatively normal life together, with the elder Dinah still working as a florist in her SecretIdentity and Larry still a private eye. Dinah Drake was also given further motivation for having chosen the path of the vigilante, having tried and failed to follow in the footsteps of her cop father, Richard Drake, thanks to the then [[DirtyCop rampant sexism and corruption of the Gotham City Police Department]].
After retiring as a vigilante, her daughter, Dinah Laurel Lance, grew up to become the new Black Canary and a member of the Justice League of America. Mother and daughter, however, grew estranged over the years, until finally reconciling on her deathbed in as Dinah Drake Lance succumbed to cancer in ''Secret Origins'' #50 (August 1990).

Dinah Laurel Lance, daughter of the original Black Canary and Detective Larry Lance, decided to become a vigilante at the age of nineteen. Trained by her "uncle" Wildcat, Dinah eventually took up the same superheroic identity as her mother: Black Canary. The big difference, however, was that Dinah was a metahuman, with the mutation of a third vocal cord, enabling her to unleash a sonic scream.
As UsefulNotes/TheDarkAgeOfComicBooks opened, Dinah was still a member of the Justice League, now Justice League International. She briefly adopted a new "[[TheEighties modern]]" costume which was quickly abandoned and is widely regard as being an embarrassment -- both by the character ''and'' by [[http://stephendestefano.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html the artist who designed the costume!]]
She was still dating Green Arrow, though [[MrsRobinson their difference in ages]] was reversed, with a [[DirtyOldMan 30-something Oliver Queen]] having started dating a college-age Dinah Lance several years earlier. For most of this period, she was a supporting character in Mike Grell's Mature-Readers ''ComicBook/GreenArrow'' book, where -- in an effort to limit the usual SuperHero elements of comic books and create a more grounded, realistic story -- [[Website/WomenInRefrigerators Grell removed Dinah's Canary Cry]] in ''The Longbow Hunters'' following an extended torture session. She would later dump Green Arrow and -- for a time -- disappeared into ComicBookLimbo.
Thankfully, she would return with a vengeance before UsefulNotes/TheDarkAgeOfComicBooks was over. In 1996, Dinah Lance abandoned her fishnets and wig in favor of [[DyeHard shorter hair, a dye job]] and a Kevlar leotard as one-half of the original Comicbook/BirdsOfPrey team -- [[BrainsAndBrawn the brawn to the brain]] of ComicBook/{{Oracle}} (a.k.a. former Batgirl Barbara Gordon). Conceived by editor Jordan B. Gorfinkel and written by Chuck Dixon, the two would headline a number of mini-series, eventually being given their only monthly title in 1999. At about the same time, a new monthly ComicBook/JusticeSocietyOfAmerica title started, simply called ''JSA'', which also featured Black Canary as a member.
Over the next ten years, Black Canary would come to take a more prominent role in Franchise/TheDCU at large. She regained her superpowers after exposure to the alchemical Lazarus Pit (her boyfriend at the time turned out to be the immortal terrorist Ra's Al Ghul) and it healed her injured vocal cords. Shortly after that, she began dating Oliver Queen (Green Arrow) again following his return from the dead. The two would eventually marry and begin to share a title together several years later.
Most agree that it was in 2003 when Creator/GailSimone took over the writing duties on ''ComicBook/BirdsOfPrey'' that Black Canary really began to achieve her full potential as a character. She became the field commander of an expanding Comicbook/BirdsOfPrey team. She continued her martial arts training, becoming a warrior worthy of the respect of Comicbook/LadyShiva -- one of the greatest martial artists and certainly the deadliest assassin in Franchise/TheDCU. Dinah also acted as a trainer to a number of young heroines and briefly tried to care for Sin -- a young girl being trained by the League of Assassins to be their next great warrior. It was also during this period that she rejoined the Franchise/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica and become their official team leader.
Things then took a dark turn for Black Canary's life. Following the events of the ''Justice League: Cry for Justice'' mini-series, she cut ties completely with her adopted family. She was estranged from her husband, having returned her wedding ring. She also apparently washed her hands of responsibility for Roy Harper, who returned to heroin use following the loss of an arm and the death of his daughter Lian in the ''Rise of Arsenal'' mini-series. The one bright side to all of this, from the fan perspective at least, was that Black Canary was now free to star in a new ''Comicbook/BirdsOfPrey'' series written by Creator/GailSimone.
Everything changed with the New 52, however...

!!Tropes for Dinah Laurel Lance / Black Canary II (Post-Crisis)
* AbortedArc: Creator/DwayneMcDuffie initially had plans of Dinah going through confidence issues during his ''Franchise/JusticeLeagueOfAmerica'' run, [[CharacterDevelopment only for her to develop into a determined leader]]. Unfortunately, [=McDuffie=] was pulled from the title and the next writer decided to [[CanonDiscontinuity ignore most of McDuffie's storylines]] leaving Dinah OOC.
* BallsOfSteel: In the Black Canary / Green Arrow wedding issue, Canary manages to land a kick on Deathstroke, but this trope is used as he angrily says that he's wearing over 50 pounds of body armor, so of course he's wearing a cup.
* BareYourMidriff: Not typically part of her costume attire, but generally her civilian attire, at least from the 2000s-onward, tend to be almost exclusively shirts that don't cover her navel. Which somewhat makes sense since that was fashion of the time and she was a woman in her mid-20s.
* BattleCouple: Green Arrow and Black Canary.
* BoyishShortHair: In some versions. It's usually either a fohawk or a PowerHair.
* BrainsAndBrawn: She's the Brawn when paired with ComicBook/{{Oracle}}.
* BroughtDownToBadass: Many stories have Dinah Laurel Lance lose her screaming powers for different reasons, which is far from a terrible thing since she's perfectly capable of whooping asses without it.
* ButNotTooBi: Dinah was confirmed to be bisexual by Creator/GailSimone, and though this inspired Sara Lance's

* ConspicuousGloves: Fingerless gloves, mostly the Dinah Laurel Lance version. Whether it's a motorcycle glove or a gauntlet varies, DependingOnTheArtist.
* CoolBigSis: Towards Roy Harper, Conner Hawke, and Mia Dearden, as well as Emiko Queen in ''ComicBook/GreenArrowRebirth'', not to mention Sin. Thanks to the significant age gap between her and Oliver, she was actually closer in age to his ward and son, so while technically she's their adopted stepmom, they generally saw her as more like a sister. She was also this to Stephanie Brown briefly, though her relationship with the Batkids hasn't been as explored.
* DeadpanSnarker: Dinah Lance is especially quick to snark; it's been something she's done since the beginning, but it became especially prominent by the ''Birds of Prey'' era. Of course, she'd need to be snarky to match Green Arrow.
* DisappearedDad: Larry Lance [[DependingOnTheWriter is usually]] dead by the time his daughter becomes the Black Canary.
* DyeHard:[[invoked]] Like her mother, Dinah Lance's natural hair colour is black and traditionally, she subverted ClarkKenting due to wearing a blonde wig, but in the 90s, she did away with the wig and began dyeing her hair blonde because it was more convenient. The ComicBook/New52 originally {{retcon}}ned Dinah into a natural blonde however later they ended up going back to the original "she dyes her hair blonde" concept.
* EveryonesBabySister: Among the Justice Society of America, as most of them have known her since she was born, so they see her as their niece. In ''JLA: Year One'', her status as the only girl on the team and her youth (she was 19 at the time, while the others appeared to be in their 30s by comparison) lead to this, something she was ''vocally'' annoyed with as she frequently told them off for treating her like a damsel they had to protect. In ''Birds of Prey'', though the UndyingLoyalty goes both ways, Dinah being in danger seems to strike the biggest reaction from the others.
* FantasyForbiddingFather: Dinah Drake was retconned into one of these in Post Crisis, though it's very DependingOnTheWriter. Sometimes, Dinah Drake encouraged her daughter's heroics, to the point of being a mild StageMom, while others depict her as having been greatly troubled by the DarkerAndEdgier nature of crime by the time her daughter came of age that she explicitly fought against Dinah following her example.
* FightsLikeANormal:
** She very rarely actually uses her sonic ability. Occasionally the writers like to justify this with things like "it makes her throat hurt" or the fact that it has a high chance of affecting innocent bystanders due to being, well, a ''scream'' that breaks windows. Some writers, such as Mike Grell, even outright just pretend it doesn't exist and write her as the BadassNormal she debuted as.
** Creator/GailSimone's [[http://gailsimone.tumblr.com/post/155635488880 take on the subject]] is that Dinah's ''passion'' is being a martial artist, whereas the Cry is more of a happy accident. She's not going to use it unless she has to, both out of
* FriendlyEnemies: Black Canary is sometimes depicted as getting along fairly well with some of the less-evil villains. Lady Shiva and herself seem to have something almost approaching a legitimate friendship, despite Shiva being a remorseless assassin, and its only hampered by Canary's refusal to accept her offer to turn her into the world's greatest killer.
* GoodBadGirl: She's a very sexually-forward woman and doesn't really feel shame in how she dresses. She's also one of the most moral and friendliest heroines there is, is a CoolBigSis to many younger heroes (and something of a little sister to the older ones), and acts as TheHeart of the Birds of Prey.
* TheHeart: Of the Birds of Prey; while Oracle is the leader and head of the team, it's Dinah who the others rally behind.
* HellBentForLeather: The Dinah Laurel Lance version(s) mostly.
* HopelessWithTech: Very few things intimidate her. Computers are one of them. Considering the company she keeps, this is often played for laughs.
* HotBlooded: DependingOnTheWriter, Dinah is prone to reacting quicker than she thinks. It caused her to butt heads with Oracle more than a few times when they first started working together, and she's generally not afraid to jump into the thick of it.
* HurtingHero: Becomes this whenever she pairs with ComicBook/GreenArrow due to their relationship being an infamous case of MasochismTango where they continually bring out the worst in each other. Their first pairing? Kidnapped by drug lords in a botched sting operation and physically tortured so badly she loses her fertility and her powers (which would eventually be restored). Rejoins Ollie after he gets resurrected? Her adopted daughter is kidnapped and Ollie himself makes her believe she's dead. Despite that, she still marries him - and proceeds to be reduced to a DamselInDistress whose Canary Cry accidentally causes an innocent bystander's hearing loss. And then Ollie leaving to form a second Justice League team somehow devastates her so much that she breaks up the primary team that she the leader of. Suffice it to say, there are likely a lot of ComicBook/BirdsOfPrey fans who really really don't like seeing Dinah and Ollie together.
* ItsAllJunk: In ''Action Comics #609'', Black Canary burns her (admittedly ugly) Eighties costume. Oddly, the costume had been established previously as fireproof. There were also several references to the awful Eighties costume in the Creator/GailSimone run on ''ComicBook/BirdsOfPrey''.
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: In ''JLA: Year One'', a 19-year-old Dinah finds herself crushing quite hard on the older Barry Allen, The Flash, and the two ended up growing quite close in the early days. However, upon discovering Barry was engaged and realizing the similar circumstances to how/why her mother had cheated on her father, she encourages him to stop neglecting Iris in favor of his superhero life and/or their own growing attraction, and the two settle on being JustFriends. Fortunately, she then immediately bumps into Green Arrow, and the rest is history.
* JerkassBall: {{Deconstruction}}. During the Cry for Justice & Rise and Fall storyline, Black Canary (Dinah Lance) abandons her husband Green Arrow I (Oliver Queen) and her adopted son Speedy I/Arsenal/Red Arrow I (Roy Harper). When Oliver is in prison for the murder of Prometheus, she returns her wedding ring and declares their marriage over. When Roy goes back to using heroin after the pain in his right arm becomes too unbearable because of the infection and the horrible prosthetic Cyborg made, she officially considers him a lost cause. It is implied that Dinah was traumatized because of the events of the story and was lashing out at them. In ''ComicBook/BirdsOfPrey'', it is revealed Dinah harbors a hug amount of guilt for her actions and regrets abandoning them when they needed her the most.
* KidSidekick: Roy and Mia have acted as this to her as much as they did to Oliver. Later Dinah took in Sin, though she wasn't really a sidekick so much as a girl Dinah planned to raise as her daughter.
* TheLadette: Naturally, being a badass BikerBabe BloodKnight who enjoys a bar fight and a GoodBadGirl. As she began dressing in ShortTank for her CivvieSpandex, this has became far more notable in her design.
* LikeASonToMe: To the point she tried to adopt Sin. She's also expressed this towards Oliver's kids and wards, who in-turn tend to look at her as a CoolBigSis or [[ParentalSubstitute mother figure]], though she's closer in age to most of them.
** Dinah herself is this to [[ComicBook/{{Wildcat}} Ted Grant]], who's repeatedly expressed how he often saw her as practically being his daughter, especially as he trained her in combat and was the first to encourage and support her heroics. For her part, Dinah considers him practically her father.
* LikesOlderMen: Dinah Lance was 19 when she met Green Arrow, who himself was in or near his 40s. He's been deaged since, but is still old enough to have a son who's only a few years younger than Dinah. When he was dead, she also briefly romanced Ra's Al Ghul (who is several ''centuries'' her senior), who though she didn't know it was him at the time, she still thought he was a man who had a daughter her age.
* LogicalWeakness: If her throat gets injured, she won't be able to use her Canary Cry. Being well-aware of this weakness, she chooses to compensate with physical training, martial arts, and using ConcussionFrags that emit powerful sonic bursts to ensure she couldn't be taken out of the fight that easily. It's also shown that her Canary Cry is vulnerable to a BeamOWar if matched against another's sonic attack.
* MakeMeWannaShout: The Canary Cry, one of the TropeCodifier examples of such an ability.
* MakeSomeNoise: During the time when she lost her Canary Cry, Dinah used bombs that could emit powerful sonic frequencies. Her depiction in ''VideoGame/Injustice2'' has her using these weapons in conjunction with her signature Canary Cry.
* MamaBear: Dinah has a soft spot for children in general and will give extra helpings of pain to anyone responsible for endangering or harming them. But that's nothing compared to what she did and was ready to do for the League of Assassins members responsible for kidnapping her adopted daughter Sin.
* MasterPoisoner: Stinger, who was able to deliver a dose of curare exact enough to paralyse Black Canary's vocal cords without doing any additional harm to her.
* MomentOfWeakness: [[ImpliedTrope Implied]]. During the ''Cry for Justice'' & ''Rise and Fall'' storylines, Dinah abandons her husband Oliver and her adopted son Speedy I/Arsenal/Red Arrow I (Roy Harper). She left the both of them because Oliver murders Prometheus for destroying Star City and causing the death of his adopted granddaughter Lian, while Roy goes back to using heroin after the pain in his right arm becomes too unbearable because of the infection and the horrible prosthetic Cyborg made, with Dinah
* NotWearingTights: Frequently. The Mike Grell run of ''Green Arrow'' is probably the first occasion, though her costume has often turned into just streetwear. In the 2010s, this became pretty much official as her default look became just a shirt and short-shorts over her usual fishnets.
* OfficialCouple: Green Arrow and Black Canary.
* OldMaster: Trained under several in the comics, most notably Wildcat, though she's also studied in East-Asia and was briefly trained by Lady Shiva.
* ParentalAbandonment: Dinah Laurel Lance [[DependingOnTheWriter usually]] dons the costume at the time both of her parents are dead.
* PintsizedPowerhouse: Not usually emphasised too much, but Dinah Lance's official height is given by official profiles as 5'4" inches, and she's [[DependingOnTheArtist usually drawn]] significantly shorter than the people she fights (and quite often who she fights alongside). This actually works to her advantage as, besides the fact it means she's frequently underestimated, but it meant she was at a significant size disadvantage when being trained by Wildcat, so from the beginning she was trained to punch above her weight and make use of her small stature.
* RequiredSecondaryPowers: To prevent going deaf from her own Canary Cry, she has a special membrane in her eardrums that act as a pair of earmuffs.
* [[SciFiWritersHave/NoSenseOfUnits Sci-Fi Writers Have No Sense of Units]]: The strength of her Canary Cry has been repeatedly stated to be around three hundred decibels. That is considerably more than the force of a shockwave produced by a megaton-level explosion. If she was actually producing a sound that powerful, it would be able to turn people into red smears and topple skyscrapers. (Mind you, under some writers, she can ''very much'' do those things, and relies on martial arts instead of her powers because she'd rather ''not.'' Needless to say, though, most instances of its use fall very short of that.)
* SecretIdentity: Despite abandoning any attempt at a disguise years ago and having
* SheCleansUpNicely: In ''JLA: Year One'', this is presented as how Dinah used to maintain a SecretIdentity; "Black Canary" was seen as something of a superhero sex symbol by the general public because of the blonde hair, fishnets, and leather leotard, but "Dinah Lance" had short black hair and dressed in a more homely and tomboyish fashion. Dinah laments being
* SlutShaming: Her reaction to Oliver being raped by Shado has been written like this, though it was more a case of the writers at the time trying to retcon the instance as being Oliver consensually cheating on her. Shortly after the rape, Oliver ''did'' cheat on Dinah with their friend, Marianne, which is what wrecked their relationship[[note]]though she was hurt, it wasn't because she saw what happened with Shado as cheating; Ollie wanted a child and the rape sired one, while Dinah was left unable to have kids after being tortured, so the incident with Shado essentially served to be a cruel reminder to Dinah of this fact[[/note]], and it seems since then, writers have conflated the two incidents into one.
* TokenSuper: She served as this for the ComicBook/BirdsOfPrey, being the only long term metahuman member of the team. Other members with superhuman powers have since come and gone on short stints (such as Power Girl, Little Barda, Hawk and Dove and Misfit), but Canary is pretty much the most steady member with this advantage.
* ThereAreNoTherapists: Averted. After she was tortured, she went through counselling to help overcome the trauma, and the fact she's undergone therapy first-hand sometimes comes up when dealing with other troubled heroes.
* ThongOfShielding: At some point, Dinah's leotard became so skimpy she was almost always fighting crime with her backside out. A team-up with Wonder Woman, Dinah explains that her costume just always rides up, and she's often too embarrassed to fix it in front of other heroes.
* ThouShaltNotKill: As with all good heroes, Dinah is an idealist who believes strongly in not killing her enemies. Interestingly, she doesn't force this ideal onto others, and happily tolerates working with Huntress and Shiva (though in the latter case, she doesn't stand much choice). For her sake, the two even tend to hold back the lethal force when its not required, too.
* VerySpecialEpisode: Many of the "Hard Traveling Heroes" storylines from UsefulNotes/TheBronzeAgeOfComicBooks.
* VillainRespect: Ra's Al Ghul, Bane, Deathstroke, and Lady Shiva have all expressed great respect for her abilities.
* WeddingSmashers: Naturally, villains attacked the Black Canary-Green Arrow wedding festivities.
* WeWouldHaveToldYouBut: Ollie fakes the death of Sin, Black Canary's adoptive daughter, and has her shipped off to a monastery, without telling Dinah so that her reactions will look natural. Never mind that Dinah's been established to be a better actor than he is. It also didn't help that Dinah -- granting that she was under a good deal of stress -- was portrayed as being irrational to the point of attacking her comrades when they suggested she needed to hold still for a moment and help them come up with a plan of attack. Ollie's plan wasn't a great one but he never got a chance to run it by Dinah before hand.
* WhoWearsShortShorts: During the ''DC YOU'' ongoing, it became common for Dinah to wear short-shorts and would frequently fight in them. After ''DC Rebirth'', this became her default look, alongside a corset top and her usual jacket/fishnets, in order to maintain her classic aesthetic with a Burnside-like improvisation.
* WorldsBestWarrior: While certainly a step below ComicBook/LadyShiva, [[ComicBook/Batgirl2000 Cassandra Cain]], and ComicBook/RichardDragon (though she could certainly survive a direct confrontation with any of the three without resorting to her abilities if she absolutely had to), she is, along with Batman, Bronze Tiger, Conner Hawke, and possibly Catman, up there as one of the absolute best non-augmented combatants in the mainline DCU. While she does have a gigantic innate advantage by way of her abilities, [[FightsLikeANormal she refuses to use them in straight fights]]. Lady Shiva also sees Canary as one of the best contenders for surpassing her, and tried to groom her into following in her footsteps.

The Black Canary of the New 52 is a CompositeCharacter of Dinah Drake Lance and Dinah Laurel Lance. Her name is Dinah Drake, like the original Black Canary, but she is a metahuman with a powerful sonic scream, like Dinah Laurel Lance. Her mother's name is ''also'' Dinah Lance, but her last name also might have come from her husband Kurt Lance (who, curiously, is ''not'' named after either the original Black Canary's husband nor Dinah Laurel's ex-husband).
''Comicbook/BirdsOfPrey'' was rebooted as part of DC Comics' ''ComicBook/{{New 52}}'' line in
After the cancellation of ''Comicbook/BirdsOfPrey'', Dinah was a guest character in ''[[{{ComicBook/Batgirl2011}} Batgirl]]'' until she was spun off into her own self-titled series in June 2015. Now the lead singer of a touring band called Black Canary, Dinah joins them solving mysteries and beating up guys on the road. This series was cast in the same fashion-forward, modernized mold as the "Batgirl of Burnside," and shared a writer in Brenden Fletcher.
Dinah's fortunes changed with the start of ''ComicBook/{{DC Rebirth}}'' in June 2016, making her more of a central character. Dinah was a main character in three different titles in 2017: ''ComicBook/BatgirlAndTheBirdsOfPrey'', ''ComicBook/JusticeLeagueOfAmericaRebirth'' and ''ComicBook/GreenArrowRebirth'', where she teamed up with the Emerald Archer to investigate a human trafficking ring and the two fell in love, restoring the classic relationship between the two.
In 2020, as ComicBook/DCInfiniteFrontier softly rebooted the universe yet again, the questions about whether or not Dinah's history was restored remain. She is currently a member of Brian Michael Bendis's ''[[ComicBook/JusticeLeagueInfiniteFrontier Justice League]]''.

!!Tropes for Dinah Drake / Black Canary (New 52/DC Rebirth)
* CivvieSpandex: In her post-Flashpoint solo ongoing, she began wearing just her regular clothing and stage outfits to fight, rather than a costume. It still retains her classic look though, thanks to the fact her 'regular clothing' is exclusively made up of leather jackets, leather short-shorts and/or pants, fishnets, and boots. It works surprisingly well as a means to justify the Stripperific nature of her attire.
* InstrumentOfMurder: In #6 of the 2015 series, Bonfire - the guitarist in Bo M - attempts to barbecue Dinah with a flamethrower hidden in her guitar during a battle of the bands.

->'''AKA:''' Thomas Bolt
->'''Debut:''' ''Detective Comics'' #560
When crime and corruption threatened to engulf Star City, Mayor Thomas Bolt was determined to do something about it. He created a mechanical claw and adopted the identity of Steelclaw. While he allowed the city’s heroes Black Canary and Green Arrow to handle the more powerful criminals, he struck out at more common street criminals. He forced information from them about underworld activities that he hoped he could then act upon in an official capacity. What he didn’t expect was an encounter with Green Arrow and Black Canary, who were suspicious of his vigilante acts. He narrowly escaped them, but in doing so found himself tied in with a gang of criminals. Other criminal networks felt threatened by Steelclaw no matter what side of the law he was on, and gangland officials had him executed at the earliest opportunity.
