Many great writers have worked on Birds of Prey. It’s an all woman hero team and a title that features Black Canary without focusing on her relationship with Green Arrow. Definitely check out Gail Simone’s run, which starts with #56 and goes through #108. Here’s Simone’s first Birds of Prey story arc, OF LIKE MINDS.
Although we love seeing Black Canary working with an incredible team of ladies, we do also love seeing her relationship with Green Arrow. This series begins with their wedding!
ComiXologist, captain of the digital editors, and die-hard Black Canary fan Jen made sure this title was included in our recs! She says, “It’s an out of continuity book by Paul Dini of Batman: The Animated Series fame. It feels like the characters from pre-New 52 with a team up between Zatanna and Black Canary. A really good one shot that begins and ends, so it’s nice to have the full story in one book from start to finish. This was published as a completed graphic novel rather than in single issues, and has some great bonus sketches in the back. A great place to start to get to know the character, in my opinion.”
This is an awesome, fresh take on Black Canary, making it a great title for new readers to [stage]dive right into the character. She’s one part vigilante and one part rockstar!
Even though DC’s Green Arrow Rebirth book doesn’t mention Black Canary in the title, she is an important presence in the story.
As Oliver struggles with how he can fight “the man” when his huge fortune makes him the man, he and Black Canary uncover a deadly new threat to Seattle that cuts the Archer to the bone.
@keeper-of-the-lore wrote us asking for some Black Canary recs to celebrate her 70th anniversary so, we’re bumping up this list!

“EMERALD OUTLAW” part one! A major new storyline begins as Green Arrow returns to Seattle for a brand-new mission: reclaim the life he’s lost. But with Oliver Queen presumed dead, his fortune obliterated, his sister Emiko missing and Seattle’s police turning against him, death proves a bigger challenge than life for Green Arrow!
