DC Just Dropped the Perfect Taylor Swift Easter Egg

DC Just Dropped the Perfect Taylor Swift Easter Egg

As a dedicated gamer and avid comic book fan, I’ve been following the exciting intersection of pop culture and superheroes for years. Taylor Swift has long captivated my attention with her chart-topping music and record-breaking achievements in the entertainment industry. So, when I came across news that Black Canary, a beloved DC Comics character, was being paid homage to Swift’s career, I couldn’t contain my excitement!


I’ve been blown away by Taylor Swift’s remarkable rise in pop culture, shattering records with her albums, tours, movies, and beyond. The intriguing rumors surrounding her potential entry into the superhero realm have been circulating for almost a decade now, suggesting she could become Marvel Comics’ mutant popstar, Alison Blaire/Dazzler. With all the buzz about Swift possibly joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it looks like DC Comics may have preempted them with an homage to her career in their own superhero pop star: Dinah Lance/Black Canary.

At a Black Canary concert, Trinity, Damian, and Jon reconnect. Trinity is excited, dressing up as Black Canary and calling herself a fan. Damian remains unconvinced by the music, but is won over when Black Canary sings about Green Arrow, the Justice League, and her personal experiences, with stunning costume transitions. This performance echoes Swift’s Eras Tour, now in Europe, and Ortega’s illustrations during this scene borrow poses similar to Swift’s choreography for “Delicate,” “Cruel Summer,” and “The Archer.”

As a gamer, I can’t help but be intrigued by the upcoming developments in the story. When Trinity, Damian, and I face off against Mongul on the battlefield, the conversation shifts to Black Canary’s latest social media post. We ponder the implications of her message during the heat of combat. Mongul joins in, suggesting that she might be dropping ten extra tracks as bonus material for her new music release. Damian and I debate the possibility that her previous album was actually just additional tracks from another project.

Swift fans will undoubtedly identify with the topics discussed here, drawn from Swift’s album releases, such as the debates over “leftover tracks” concerning her 2020 sister albums, folklore and evermore. The significance of bonus material has become a recurring theme in Swift’s music recently, from the previously unreleased tracks on her re-recorded (Taylor’s Version) albums to her latest surprise double album, The Tortured Poets Department. Fans have been speculating about hidden meanings in her social media posts and deciphering potential numerology clues, which has reached a new level of intensity in recent times as they anticipate the release of her next re-recording. These details not only contribute to Black Canary’s growing presence as an artist in the DCU but also underscore Swift’s considerable influence on pop culture through this distinctive lens.
