β¦ Synopsis
In this thrilling origin story of Black Canary, Dinah Lanceβs voice is her weapon. And in a near-future world where women have no rights, she wonβt hesitate to use everything she hasβincluding her songβto fight back.
Dinah Lance was eight years old when she overheard the impossible: the sound of a girl singing. It was something she was never meant to hearβnot in her lifetime and not in Gotham City, taken over by the vicious, patriarchal Court of Owls. The sinister organization rules Gotham City as a dictatorship and has stripped women of everythingβtheir right to work, to make music, to learn, to be free.
Now seventeen, Dinah canβt forget that haunting sound, and sheβs beginning to discover that her own voice is just as powerful. But singing is forbiddenβa one-way route to a certain death sentence. Fighting to balance her fatherβs desire to keep her safe, a blossoming romance with mysterious new student Oliver Queen, and her own need to help other women and girls rise up, Dinah wonders if her song will finally be heard. And will her voice be powerful enough to destroy the Court of Owls once and for all?
