Description
Done in Toronto, August 2002 by former Avengers artist Dave Ross. Ross had just finished doing a short stint on "Birds of Prey" under the writing of Chuck Dixon. When he was doing the piece he asked if he could draw the Canary without her jacket. I turned down his request but in retrospect I think it may have been a mistake. It could have been a striking piece without it. As he drew the piece I asked him what it was like working with Dixon and I made a few comments about my down right hatred for Dixon's writing and his portrayal of the Black Canary. Ross made a good defense for Dixon at the time, although I can't remember what he said off hand. Doesn't matter anyways. I still hate Chuck Dixon and wont buy anything he writes anymore.

What did chuck dixon do to black canary? it was gail simone who in her first storie arc had dinah get capture and tied up then had both legs broken and needed to be rescued by the lesser character of the huntress? now thats what i call bad writing just to make over the characters to fit your wishes.

Oh and your right you should have let him draw it without the jacket!

Wow man, that's harsh; Chuck Dixon's as much a backbone of DC comics as Geoff Johns and Greg Rucka.
