Dina Romanov (Earth-5641)

"You need to see more than what you could perceive, Mr. Barton. But I must be intrigued. Have you realized who I am the first place, or my cover really fooled you? I suspect that the Arrow of Hell's Kitchen isn't so hellish at all."

- Dina Romanov Mrs. Dinah Lance was known as a popular singer in various nightclubs across the Hell's Kitchen district of Manhattan, New York. She was also known to have participated in several charity events, helping troubled lives in Hell's Kitchen. But recently, newspapers told the public that she died in a car accident. Thing is, all of these "stories" and "lies" were only cover-ups for KGB super-agent, Dina Romanov who was there to assassinate an important individual that could threaten Mother Russia, or even the world. During the Cold War, at a very young age, she was viewed as a suitable candidate for the Canary Project that was done by the government to develop super-soldiers, as a "catalyst" to the United States' CLASSIFIED SUPERHUMANS rise to power. The super-soldiers are then used to assassinate key individuals, but the project is known to have failed until now. However, it's also a cover-up story. The project managed to turn Mrs. Dina Romanov into the fearsome assassin, codenamed Black Canary. The project gave her a physical condition, nearly equal to those of Captain America, and a special ability called the "Canary Cry", which is a hypersonic scream that could potentially kill a living being. Arriving on Hell's Kitchen as Dinah Lance, she managed to wait patiently, until the time has come for her to assassinate her target. However, the Arrow of Hell's Kitchen attempted to stop her... and succeeded. But when the two of them discovered that the "target" was in fact, her own adoptive father and former instructor, Arkady "Omega Red" Rossovich, who wanted to detonate an experimental bomb that could level the entire United States. The two of them managed to defeat him, but Dina was still confused over what she was doing her entire life. Luckily, Arrow managed to convince her to turn her life 180-degrees back, and become a vigilante in Hell's Kitchen. She accepted the offer, and since then, she has protected the citizens of Hell's Kitchen alongside Mr. Barton, who's also dating her at the moment.
