- —Black Canary
Dinah Laurel Lance, also known as Black Canary, is a superheroine from DC Comics. She appeared in the 121st episode of Death Battle, Black Canary VS Sindel, where she fought against Sindel from the Mortal Kombat series.
History
Dinah Laurel Lance was born into a family of crimefighters. Her father, Larry Lance, was a police officer, while her mother, Dinah Drake, was "Black Canary", a former member of the Justice Society of America. The younger Dinah was determined to become a skilled hero just like her mother, despite her mother's wishes to the contrary. Dinah's childhood and teenage years resulted in her training in martial arts under the hero Wildcat, who was a colleague of her mother. Things then took an interesting turn when Dinah discovered she had a latent superpower thanks to her possession of the metagene, which granted her hypersonic vocal powers. Following her training, Dinah took up her mother's identity and adopted her costume as her own, becoming the second Black Canary. Now, she is living the dream she had fought so hard for, and saves the world as a member of the Justice League.
