Author's Note: Inspired by Ykari's "50 People Who Loved Raven," except I probably won't be able to reach fifty. Very crack-like, expecting to do one for other Justice League girls as well. Each chapter stands alone, and won't cross into the other ones. Also, "love" includes both platonic, romantic, and friendship love—just to be clear. Hope you enjoy!


20 People Who Loved Black Canary


1. Green Arrow

He's used to being the one-night stand, but when Dinah comes to him for help he feels a protective urge that he's never felt before.

2. Batman

Diana's the one he wants to settle down with, but Dinah makes him want to pull of his cowl and remind the Justice League why his alter-ego was hailed, "most incorrigible playboy" in the Westside Times, Gotham Gazette, and Daily Planet.

3. Green Lantern

He was supposed to be a marine, damn it, so why was he sweating at the thought of sparring hand-to-hand with Dinah?

4. Flash

He knows he's probably fallen in love more times than any other member of the JLA, (blame his youth and the amount of spandex-wearing hotties waltzing around on a daily basis), but when Black Canary laughs at his jokes, he thinks he's finally found the one.

5. Superman

When Dinah starts bench-pressing next to him, he's so tempted to use his x-ray vision that he has to leave the gym.

6. J'onn Jonzz

Martians are strictly monogamous, and J'onn never thought he'd look at another woman after his wife died, but Black Canary makes him want to reconsider.

7. Alfred Pennyworth

He makes it a point to be a complete professional around Master Bruce's visitors—he never knows when they'll turn out to be royalty, or aliens, or worse: criminals—but Ms. Dinah makes him wish that he was fifty years younger. Bruce looks extremely disturbed when he starts talking about how he was "quite the lady's man, back in my day."

8. Booster Gold

He claims that he did it for the wealth and fame, but the reason he joined the JLA was to get close to her.

9. Wonder Woman

She has to admit, out of all the women in the JLA, (including Mari, who's a runway model in her spare time), Black Canary has the most style.

10. Lex Luthor

He seriously considers having her kidnapped as a ploy to lure the rest of the JLA into his trap, then realizes that he really just wants her for himself and discards the idea.

11. Wildcat

He hits Green Arrow so hard because he's jealous of Dinah's relationship with the man, but is horrified when he thinks he killed him because he knows Dinah would never forgive him if he did.

12. Gorilla Grodd

The gorilla, of course, is still the most evolved animal in existence, but for some reason he can't imagine Black Canary as more perfect than she already is.

13. Hawkgirl

They bond over ice-cream and complaining about how they have to work for their figures and Diana get hers for free.

14. Robin

He's loved redheads and black-haired girls, but his first crush was a blond.

15. Giganta

She'd never admit it, but Black Canary is one of her idols. Who else can kick butt, drive a morticycle, and still look good doing it?

16. Mordred

He curses when he realizes his mother didn't send Black Canary back—didn't she realize that he'd willingly abdicate his throne if it meant gaining her as his new queen?

17. Shining Knight

If he thought it would win her heart, he'd swear himself as her loyal knight until he was blue in the face.

18. Lord Hades

The good thing about being immortal is that he doesn't have to feel like a dirty old man when he watches her fight.

19. Captain Atom

He's usually all business, but he finds himself wishing he could flirt as easily as Flash when he finds himself paired with her during Monitor Duty.

20. Green Arrow (reprise)

Out of all the men who want her, she chooses him, and Green Arrow can't help but thank his lucky stars that she likes blond Robin Hoods with facial hair.
