Black Canary #1-Who Is Sin?

She’s been around since the 1940s (or at least a version of her).  Black Canary is a superb fighter and possesses the ability to shatter eardrums and other objects with her sonic scream.

2007's Issue #1 from DC Comics starts out when Black Canary and Green Arrow first started working together as a team while members of The Justice League of America.

The lady in black leather and fishnet stockings was not impressed with Green Arrow’s bravado and blatant sexism.  Things changed over the next 10 years.

Dinah (Black Canary) and Oliver (Green Arrow) are about to be married.

Dinah sits in a cafe with a young girl named Sin whom she rescued from being a trained assassin.

When one of the kids bullies Sin she retaliates.  The restaurant’s play area (and the restaurant for that matter) will never be the same.

Dinah takes Sin to a hotel.  Sin goes to get ice and meets a man who seems overly friendly.  Dinah clobbers him only to realize that he is her ex-husband.

A smooth talker he convinces Dinah to agree to help him with some ‘trouble’ he has gotten into-the taking a loan from bad guys kind of trouble.

Dinah reluctantly shows up and saves him.

Later he arrives at a swanky office of his ‘employer’--someone who has a beef with Green Arrow.  Any guesses as to whom it is?

Things are get interesting and as the 4-part mini-series continues Dinah, Ollie and Sin find themselves in some pretty precarious situations.

What makes this mini-series so important is that it delves into both Dinah’s and Ollie’s pasts and sets up their wedding.
