Lady Blackhawk is the alias of two fictional female aviatrix and soldiers who have appeared over the decades in assorted Quality Comics and later DC Comics publications. The two characters are presented here in the order in which their fictional adventures were initially published. ZINDA BLAKE, LADY BLACKHAWK I Zinda Blake, the first Lady Blackhawk, is a fictional DC Comics character (originally a Quality Comics character). She was introduced in the February , 1959 issue of the ''Blackhawk'' comic book (#133) and wanted to become part of the team. For a while she was influenced by Killer Shark , one of the main Blackhawks villains, and became Queen Killer Shark. As a side-effect of Zero Hour , Zinda is now in present-time DC continuity, where she has become a supporting character first of ''Guy Gardner, Warrior'' , and later (as of late 2004 ) of Birds Of Prey , where she is the team's pilot, and looks about fifty years younger than she really is. Zinda enjoys cooking and dancing when she's not out flying planes and fighting evil. Zinda is credited for officially naming Oracle's team "The Birds of Prey." NATALIE REED, LADY BLACKHAWK II Natalie Reed, the second woman to be known as Lady Blackhawk, was introduced in the mini-series ''Blackhawk: Blood and Iron'' written and drawn by Howard Chaykin and published by DC in 1987 . Retroactively established as having been part of the Blackhawk Squadron at the behest of the Soviet Union from 1943 onwards. Her history with the Blackhawks was a chaotic one, and endured through the end of the Second World War and much of the Cold War that followed. EXTERNAL LINKS |
