After fans celebrated DC's revival of the Justice Society, Julie Schwartz made a few minor attempts to revive a few of the members as possible features. I doubt the editor really thought these features would be popular-- they were all about married, forty-year old supermen and superwomen (though they were drawn to look twenty-ish). BRAVE AND BOLD #61 teamed up Starman and Black Canary, the latter seen doing below dispensing martial mayhem. It should be noted that absolutely no one cared subsequently to revive the original Starman-- instead, they kept using the name for different characters, because Original Starman was so bloody dull. But Black Canary must have grabbed someone, because she got transported into the main continuity (and returned to a twenty-something status), thus leading to a rich career from then on, albeit usually not in her own series.
