Stories since the Silver Age have focused on the younger Black Canary, ascribing her superhuman abilities to a genetic mutation. DC Comics adjusted its continuity, explained that Black Canary was two characters: mother and daughter Dinah Drake and Dinah Laurel Lance. The crossing from Earth-1 to Earth-2 was given as the reason for the development of her Canary Cry. Later, Silver Age of Comic Books stories depicted her as a world-class martial artist with a superpower: the "Canary Cry", a high-powered sonic scream which could shatter objects and incapacitate enemies. Dinah then crossed dimensions from what DC called Earth-2, to Earth-1. At the end of one, her husband Larry Lance is killed. The character was revived after a number of years during one of the annual Justice League/Justice Society team-ups. Black Canary was a member of the Justice Society of America, the first comic-book superhero team. Although she did not have superpowers, the character was a hand-to-hand fighter who frequently posed as a criminal to infiltrate organized crime. Since the late 1960s, the character has frequently been paired with archer superhero Green Arrow professionally and romantically, and they eventually married.Īt her Golden Age of Comic Books debut, Black Canary was the alter ego of Dinah Drake and participated in crime-fighting adventures with her love interest (and eventual husband), Gotham City detective Larry Lance.
