Now alone, the Sherwood Florist was later destroyed, leaving Dinah with no means of income, and she later learned of Green Arrow's death and of the existence of Conner Hawke, yet another child fathered by Green Arrow. Their relationship ended when Dinah walked in on Queen kissing her shop assistant. Her relationship with Queen deteriorated after she learned that Arrow had fathered a son, which she would now be unable to do, with the assassin Shado and was taking money from the florist business. Now having lost her Canary Cry, she had also become unable to bear children and required extensive counseling afterwards. Taking part in a failed operation to bust a drug ring, Dinah was captured and tortured before being rescued by Green Arrow. Years of training and dedication paid off, and at the age of 19 Dinah took her mother's mantle, albeit against her mother's initial wishes.Д®stablishing herself as the new Black Canary, Dinah operated out of Gotham, while maintaining a day job in the family florist business.ДЄfter becoming a founding member of the Justice League of America, Dinah met Green Arrow who she at first detested but later became romantically involved, despite the difference in their ages.ДЄfter her mother died, Dinah lost her motivation and left the League to travel the country with Green Arrow and Green Lantern (Hal Jordan) to rediscover America and their motivations as heroes.ДЄfter the breakup of the League, Dinah moved to Seattle with Green Arrow, opening her own florist shop named 'Sherwood Florist' and began considering starting a family. Raised on tales of her mother's heroics as told by the members of the Justice Society of America who babysat her, Dinah soon wished to become a costumed hero like her mother, although her mother forbade it, thinking that the world had become a far more darker and dangerous place to willingly allow her daughter to succeed her.Дinah, however, thought that her metahuman-gifted ' Canary Cry' gave her an edge that her mother never had and sought out numerous fighters to help hone her skills, including former JSA member Wildcat.
