Says Waid of his plans for the character..

"It should come as little surprise that I have an affinity for all costumed crimefighters no matter if their adventures are 'period pieces' or not--heroism is heroism regardless of whatever year's on the calendar. With this Green Hornet project, which I've been percolating on for more than ten years, I'm able to meld my love of the Hornet's legacy with a little bit of Citizen Kane and a lot of Lawrence of Arabia to tell a story never before told--the dark years of the Hornet's later career and the one mistake he makes that nearly costs him everything."

I wanna see a Phantom Relaunch... don't like the mask of GH.
rogmel - 10/8/2012, 9:27 AM
That's the classic hornet mask. Google green hornet serials and you'll see that mask from the old movie serials of the 30's and 40's. I like it personally.

Question though, does this replace the current GH series from Dynamite or does it just reboot the "Year One" series that ended at issue 12?

That's not promo art for Waid's series. That is artwork from Matt Wagner's Green Hornet that's been out for the last two or three years.

[frick]ing love Waid.

Green Hornet has never been a major comic and never will be.

Ha, right, Best of luck in your future trolling endeavors Cap'n.

It wasn't a copy and paste you moron. I used the quotes, which are blockquoted. Hurry up and be deleted so I don't have to read your drivel.

¡Look Great!

There is a reason why that big rectangular yellow box is around the paragraph of words, as stated by Waid, that you see above in the article. It's called a blockquote and it's used to quote (get it?) something said by someone else other than the editor of said article.

It's not rocket science.

Ror,


One can only hope eh!
SteveRogersSon - 10/8/2012, 1:15 PM
So he is going to be writing a new series or taking over from Kevin Smith?
SteveRogersSon - 10/8/2012, 1:26 PM
ummmm well i guess if that's the label you have for him weiner....
fullmoon106 - 10/8/2012, 2:13 PM
Interresting, but that artwork is from Green Hornet Year One by Matt Wagner and Aaron Campbell.

Didn't Kevin Smith write only the first ten issues of Green Hornet?
SuspenseSmith - 10/8/2012, 3:30 PM
dafuq is with that mask?
mgeoff88 - 10/8/2012, 6:13 PM
The cover art is fantastic! The new series sounds interesting.

I hope this prompts a movie studio to do a Green Hornet movie reboot.

I heard so many bad things about the Seth Rogen one, I haven't even bothered to watch it.
DrRockit13 - 10/8/2012, 6:42 PM
those are all from Green Hornet Year one that was out last year and ended after 12 issues. Im assuming that who ever created this article was jsut using those images for purposs of how he explained the new series. I would love to see Grren Hornet Year one would come back. It was great!
BlackDynamite - 10/8/2012, 7:21 PM
Sick art and I love the mask
1RoninAmongBitches - 10/9/2012, 12:23 AM
@GUNSMITH this is the way the masked originally looked. I think its way cooler and potentially more menacing than a domino mask
mikesinuman - 10/9/2012, 11:34 AM
the mask is fine, you'll get use to it.^_^
