In 2411, Mia found out that her mother had secretly been acting as a vigilante, so she ran away from home and went to Star City. Shortly after arriving, Mia got involved in underground cage fighting as a "stress release". While in Star City, Mia met Connor Hawke and the two began to have a romantic relationship together. Unknown to Mia, however, was that Connor was an agent of the peacekeeping agency Knightwatch and John Diggle's adopted son.
Also at some point, she came into contact with her mother again and sold her technology to trigger bombs—although it's unknown if this is actually true or just a cover so as not to reveal her true identity. When she first reveals this information while interrogated by William Clayton, Dinah Drake, and Zoe Ramirez, she claimed that she had no knowledge of Felicity's plan, but it's later revealed that she does.
One night, Mia found a copy of, and watched Emerald Archer: The Hood and the Rise of Vigilantism, a documentary about Oliver Queen that had been banned sometime before 2040.

William then pulled a gun on her, threatening to shoot, before Mia revealed her identity as Oliver and Felicity's daughter and his half-sister.

Lyla explained that they needed to build a weapon on the island due to a high exposure of energy, which is why she was all alive after Adrian Chase blew it up. Mia questioned Lyla if the weapon would prevent the crisis, but Michaels replied that there is no way to prevent the event, but that they would survive thanks to her. After everyone left the tent, Oliver spoke privately with Mia and William, revealing that he will die during the event. Although she had hidden her emotions, Mia left the tent to start building the weapon. Mia and the group got together to find out where the plane carrying Dinah, Rene and Roy crashed, although the plutonium they were carrying had crashed elsewhere on the island. After the group split up, Mia stayed at the camp to protect William.
In the island's bunker, Mia heard William complain about the 2392 technology. After she started playing with the dwarf star particles, her brother removed them from her hands. After offering her help, Mia answered William's question ("what is the volume of a sphere"), which shocked him and reminded him that she was also Felicity's daughter.

Lucifer questioned what was Mia's greatest desire, in which she responded by saying that it was resurrecting her father. Lucifer delivered a card that allowed the trio to go to Purgatory for a limited time, and if they didn't leave their souls would be wiped out.

As noted by Mia's half-brother, William Clayton and her mother, Felicity Smoak, she shares many similarities with her father, Oliver Queen, but to a much greater degree; she is tough and not afraid to use force or violence to get what she wants, when she first met William and Zoe Ramirez, she is nothing but aggressive and distant, displaying no sign of interest or respect in what they had to say, she can also be quite stubborn and single-minded, which has led her to make rash decisions, this is likely due to her not being able to trust others easily after feeling betrayed by her own mother. After mending fences with Felicity, Mia had begun to show more compassion and consideration for her teammates, particularly with William.
Mia is extremely arrogant (far more than Oliver ever was) to the point of being reckless, as she jumps into situations without any plan, as she lacks her father's intellect and tactical abilities, wasted her abilities on brute force instead of intellectual means, which repeatedly backfires on her; for example, when Mia faced off against John Diggle, Jr. (the leader of the Deathstroke gang) without any plan or strategy, she was almost killed by the latter, Mia only survived due to the intervention of Zoe, but unfortunately, her friend was killed by JJ; which makes Mia indirectly responsible for Zoe's death.
When Zoe died, Mia's anger for her comrade's death overwhelmed her to the point of wanting to kill Deathstroke despite the fact that said criminal was different from the one that killed Zoe. In her moment of deep anger, she soon escalated from trying to avoid her father from displaying great rage and even (arrogantly) threatening to kill him if he continued to stood in her way.
But after Mia got to spend some time with her father, Oliver in the past, she was more understanding of why her father did what he does.
After Oliver gave her a suit and suggested she should become the next Green Arrow, Mia fought in the Crisis. During the battle, Mia was determined to help her father to fight. After the battle, she also held the same attitude on resurrecting her father and eventually saved his body in a Lazarus Pit.Abilities[]

- It is implied Mia and Connor Hawke were in a romantic relationship at some point.

Behind the scenes[]
- In the comics, the name "Blackstar" has been used by several different characters (both male and female), but most notably by Rachel Berkowitz, a girl from Poland who was raised by Nazis and grew up to be a brilliant scientist. She is an enemy of Supergirl.
- The name Blackstar also resembles Nightstar, the daughter of Nightwing and Starfire in the Kingdom Come series set in the DC Universe's future.
- In the Kingdom Come comics series that are set in an alternate future reality, Oliver Queen does have a daughter named Olivia Queen. Her mother is Dinah Lance and Olivia is the second Black Canary in her universe.
- Her name, Mia, is a reference to Mia Dearden, the second Speedy and Thea's comic book counterpart.
- When her character was originally announced in the press, she was called Jessie Bowden, although this was later changed to Maya. The character was initially only referred to as "Blackstar", leaving her real name then-unknown.
- "Jessie Bowden" was initially going to be "the rookie recruit in the Star City Police Department and is both athletic, comedic and intelligent. But underneath her youthful attitude, lies a woman who has had enough of vigilantes in Star City and is willing to get rid of them no matter what it takes.".
- "Maya" was later described similarly as "A scrappy street fighter and thief from Star City who is a rookie recruit in the Star City Police Department. She is athletic, comedic and intelligent. But underneath her youthful attitude, lies a woman who has had enough of vigilantes in Star City and is willing to get rid of them no matter what it takes.
