Black Canary is back and this time she’s left super heroics behind for a new world of rock and roll. Now known as D.D and the lead singer of the band Black Canary, (Kind of dangerous, with that voice, don’t ya think?) trouble follows her everywhere. Dinah just wants to escape her past, but it keeps catching up with her. To the dismay of her bandmates, their shows usually end with a literal bang. As in, Dinah banging someone's head in at the end of practically every performance. So much so that they have been dubbed “The Most Dangerous Band In America.” So who is coming after D.D, and why? Or maybe it’s not her they’re after...

Of course, I loved this book. Music and comics are pretty much my two favorite things, so combine them and it’s even better. The art in this book is gritty and gorgeous. Annie Wu was a perfect fit for this story, giving it an edgy look and feel. I’m in love with her art style. The story itself is pretty interesting and it’s cool to see a character such as Dinah Lance in a different scenario. Brenden Fletcher does a good job of keeping her true to the Black Canary we all know and love. The girl with the killer (literally) voice in a band? Now that’s a show I’d like to see. This is just the start for D.D and Black Canary. The series seems pretty promising and I’m excited to pick up the next one! Black Canary #1 by Brenden Fletcher and Annie Wu are available on comic shelves now!
