Black Canary
Black Canary is a martial artist who immobilizes villains with her "Canary Cry" sonic scream. The DC character first appeared in comics in the 1940s as a member of the Justice Society of America. Her trademark tight black clothes and fishnet tights were changed to blue and black in the 1980s but went back to their origins thereafter. -
