Black Canary has earned a reputation as one of the most lethal hand-to-hand fighters in the DC Universe. Combined with her trademark Canary Cry, she’s a force to be reckoned with. This November, award-winning writer Tom King and artist Ryan Sook are preparing Black Canary for the match of the millennium in an all new six-issue series, Black Canary: Best of the Best from DC Comics.
“I’ve been wanting to tell this story for a few years, and I’m really excited for fans to see what Ryan and I have planned for Dinah,” said King. “He’s got the perfect art style for this series, and fans will feel every punch and kick thrown from the first issue to the finale.”
Black Canary faces her toughest opponent yet, Lady Shiva, in a battle to determine who is the single greatest hand-to-hand fighter in the DC Universe. To make it to the final round, Black Canary will need all her fighting skill and ability, plus additional training from some of DC’s most accomplished fighters, including Batman, Wildcat, and even her mother, the original Black Canary!
Cover art for the series’ debut comes from Ryan Sook with variant covers by David Nakayama, Otto Schmidt, Chrissie Zullo and Dan Hipp. See above for the stunning wrap around cover and below for more cover designs.
