'''Black Canary''' is the superheroine alias of two characters featured in DC Comics: '''Dinah Drake '''and her daughter '''Dinah Laurel Lance'''. A highly skilled martial artist, her signature ability is a destructive scream named the "Canary Cry". First appearing in 1947 on the 86th issue of ''Flash Comics'' volume 1, Black Canary is one of DC's oldest and longest-running superheroines. She is mainly associated with the teams ''Justice League'' and ''Birds of Prey''.
 
In the [[Ms. /co/]] tournaments, Black Canary is best known for her Cinderella run in [[Ms. /co/ 2018]]. As a 66th seed, she took down 2nd seeded [[Jessica Rabbit]] in the 2nd round. Her upset victory generated momentum which eventually landed her an appearance in the quarter-finals, where she lost to [[Kim Possible]] and ultimately placing 8th after the consolation round. She is currently the oldest and lowest-seeded female contestant to reach the [[Elite Eight]], and the second-oldest (after [[Betty Boop]], who debuted in 1930, made the top 8 in [[Ms. /co/ 2021|2021]]).
 
However, Black Canary's result appeared to be a fluke, as she had a poor qualifying performance in the [[Ms. /co/ 2020|2020 contest]], placing 296th out of 1093 nominees. She was the only returning non-champion contestant from 2018 who failed to earn a tournament berth that year.
