I went to the comic book store this morning while (on work time—yay! ) and picked up 5 weeks of comics. So prepare for reviews, Dr. Gym’lls But anyway, while I was in the store I picked up two of the three Green Hornet series released by Dynamite. Anyone who checks the comic book websites knows Dynamite is doing this explosion of Green Hornet titles—something like 5 or 6 ongoings and miniseries; they’re really betting on the character, hoping to capitalize in the coming movie.
Personally, I love what Dynamite has done with Buck Rogers, the Lone Ranger and especially Zorro, and how they’ve carved out a little niche for themselves as the company doing licensed properties and doing them extremely well. I hope Dynamite continues to succeed because almost everything I’ve seen from them has been top quality. I do, however, have to say, I disagree with whoever came up with this current onslaught of Green Hornet titles. Its way too much too quickly and its pretty overwhelming to the casual reader. One, maybe two max, titles would be fine to release; but releasing 5 on a property with no current existing audience is a big mistake in my mind. I think this will hurt them.
The Green Hornet himself is one of those characters I like because of his broad history, but I’m not really all that familiar with the character. I’m way too young for the TV show (and the radio serial ) and I’ve never collected a Green Hornet comic before. I’m not exactly eager to see the Seth Rogen driven movie; but I’m always willing to give a good comic book series a try.
The two series I tried out are:
(1) The Kevin Smith driven Green Hornet series – because this could potentially be a lot of fun and pretty awesome. I used to love Smith’s movies when I was a teenager and college kid but these days I find them to be rather lackluster. However, I do think his comics are sometimes very good. He’s a definite “hit or miss” comic book writer (without even getting into his delayed issue problems), but I did like his Daredevil and Green Arrow stuff a lot. So my plan is to give it a try for 2-3 issues and see if I like it. On a sidenote, the female Kato thing isn’t something that bothers me at all since I’m no longtime fan of the series, and from what I understand, Smith certainly didn’t invent it.
(2) Much more exciting to me is Matt Wanger’s Green Hornet: Year One. Matt Wagner is having a bit of a renaissance these days between Madame Xanadu (which is excellent) and Zorro (which is possibly even better). His reminding me how good writers can tell great comic book stories without falling into the same tropes of the superhero medium. Plus, the series is set in the 1930’s, which is much more appealing to me and opens up all kinds of plot elements for Wagner to use. I suspect anyone who was a fan of Sandman: Mystery Theatre will want to check this out bigtime.
So, anyone else pick these up or any other Green Hornet related stuff? Intend to? And if so, any thoughts on the various titles?
Also—I’ll be glad to hear the thoughts of any longtime Green Hornet fans.

There was a big splash on the Green Hornet comics in Previews which both attracted and repelled me. I'm not familiar with the character, but it certainly looked interesting. It was just the launch of several books at once that I found overreaching, and suspected there could be more fluff than substance.
However, Matt Wagner is a big draw for me (Kevin Smith less so) and I like the concept, but I'm waiting for some reviews.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Yeah, Dynamite really I think is shooting them in the foot by producing so many Green Hornet titles at once.
I will definitely review the two titles when I read them. The one I have high hopes for is the Matt Wagner one, in which I bought the beautiful John Cassidy cover.

I felt Now Comics made the same mistake just before THEY went belly-up.
Meanwhile, I still remember when Kevin Dooley as editor of GREEN LANTERN decided to expand to 4 books-- and after 2 years of steadily climbing sales, sales sunk on ALL of them. What did he expect? But instead of realizing he'd screwed up, he blamed his writers... and he blamed the CHARACTER! This of course, led to "Emerald Twilight"... and 15 years of insufferable B.S.
Posted by Eryk Davis Ester on :
The Green Hornet was, of course, the first "legacy" super-hero, being the son of the Lone Ranger's nephew (or something like that)!
I'm curious if they're re-establishing that connection, given that it's tend to be downplayed in recent years.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Even though Dynamite also licenses the Lone Ranger, the fact that the two characters are owned by different people will weigh into it. Dynamite said they would "reference the Lone Ranger's real name", but would not specifically say "Lone Ranger". From what I understand though, there should be Lone Ranger easter eggs spread throughout the titles.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Okay, I've now read the two titles I bought and shall review them. First up, is Green Hornet: Year One, which I thought was the better of the two and was in fact, pretty excellent. I would recommend anyone curious about the Green Hornet or looking for a solid new series to give it a try.
Matt Wagner has done such an amazing job lately (as I stated above) with Zorro and Madame Xanadu (in fact see the entire Vertigo thread for continuous praise for that series) and that continues here: the writing is tight, builds interest in the characters and the story, and paces along excellently. Wagner does a great job introducing the characters firmly so you know exactly who they are, but leaving a large amount of backstory a mystery to whet your appetite for more. He's a master craftsman in that regard. He also balances the story with what is happening in the here and now in 1938, as well as insight into the Green Hornet's history (beyond just his origin, which will be forthcoming), and Kato's history (same). All three threads are very interesting and I want to learn more of each.
Both the Green Hornet and Kato--which as I said, I know the basics but not much more beyond that--are likeable and intriguing. I want to learn more about them in this title. I like the newspaper magnet background of the Green Hornet and I'm really curious about Kato, a Japanese (American?), helping the Green Hornet just prior to the onset of WWII. *Their* friendship is one I'm really looking forward to learning more about.
I also like that this is set in Chicago when the glory days of the Mob were beginning to wane. Chicago is a great city and I'd like to see it more often in comics (I love NYC more than any other city but I get quite enough of that in hundreds of other comic books).
Like many other Dynamite artists, Aaron Campbell is another one I do not know (or remember) from prior work; however, I like his his gritty, dark style. It provides the series that feeling of "mystery men" / pulp fiction, which helps establish the series as a great crime comic as well.
I'm impressed and will buy this title for the duration. Anyone who liked Wagner's Sandman Mystery Theatre, this is a must read.
So if anyone is curious and picks it up , please add your own review!
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
The second Green Hornet title I bought is the kind of big "marque" title, Green Hornet by Kevin Smith, based on Smith's initial plotline for a Green Hornet movie before he opted out of the deal.
First: the premise. Here, Smith sets the Green Hornet and Kato about a generation before us (maybe even the 70's like the television show?); we will see how their offspring take up the mantle--this will include a female Kato. I have no problem with this whatsoever, and am looking forward to the parent/child dynamic to be a factor. The female Kato working with the male Green Hornet could also be interesting. Neither of these ideas are originally Smith's, they've been used before. I do, however, wish Dynamite could have been a little more strict in continuity--I'd have preferred that this tied into Matt Wagner's Green Hornet series (and believe it could have provided more reason for readership interest and cross-buying, as anyone with a business sense knows). I think it was a mistake; they could have just made these the descendants of the 30's heroes, their great-grandchildren. Not a glaring thing but one I can't help but wonder about.
As for Smith's actual story, the opening issue was mainly introduction type stuff. In other words, it was pretty good but not as solid as Wagner's above work, which provides you with a bit more meat. And since Dynamite released both at the same time, its only fair that I compare them the entire way through. Smith doesn't really provide anything original in the Green Hornet's superheroics / mystery man stylizing either--he could easily have used Daredevil.
That being said, it was still a pretty good read. The most interesting thing is the friendship between the original Green Hornet and Kato, which Smith delivers in an excellent way. The guy knows how to write great friendship scenes, that's for sure. I also note the entire first issue dealt mainly with the two originals--so basically it was using the same characters as Wagner; we don't really meet the two characters we will be seeing in the first issue.
One thing I found kind of annoying is that at the issue's end when we meet the soon to be Green Hornet II, it is the typical rich, silver spoon, psuedo-celebrity that is constantly being followed by the media and is just kind of an idiot and jerk. Ooooh boy, not this again. I feel like I've seen this so much in comics, movies and just about everywhere--not to mention, the very real types I can't seem to get away from in the news. When is this archetype going to leave us for good? Nobody likes someone that's spoiled, and its hard to overcome that when they're actually a good person; when they're annoying as all hell, there's little to get you to empathize with. Obviously, Smith intends to do this as the series goes on--but really, I've seen that so many times from writers that I'm tired of it. If you really want me to feel something for one of these super-rich kids, you need to kill off their parents when their 8 years old (I got your back, Batman).
The art was by another artist I'm not familiar with (or don't remember), Jonathan Lau and it was solid. It was much more super-hero-y than the Year One stuff, which in a way provides a nice counter-balance to that series.
For those of you that know Smith, you know he has a very juvenile sense of humor. That can be both funny and fun to some and distracting and annoying to others. In #1, it was seen a little bit but was held in check. I suspect it will become a more prominent part of the series once the second versions take the reigns. So I caution you: if you don't like this kind of humor, I think you might get annoyed with it; if you do like it, it might enhance your reading.
My overall feeling after #1? So far, not bad, but I can't really recommend someone spend their money on it unless they already have a strong curiosity for it. I plan to at least buy #2 and #3 and then judge for myself if its worth continuing. It very much could turn out to be a great series and storyline (as Smith's Daredevil and Green Arrow did), but it could also go the other way. I will continue to report my feelings.
PS - one thing Dynamite is doing is all kinds of alternate covers for these series. I have no intention to buy more than one but I do like having the options. John Cassaday is providing some GREAT covers for the Smith series, so I plan to get those; Wagner, who is also an excellent artist, is also doing covers and I'll get those for Year One.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
I read the second issue of Green Hornet: Year One, the series by Matt Wagner set in the 1930's and I can't recommend it enough. Anyone looking for a 'mystery man / pulp / noir' series, this is what you need. Wagner just proves he's a master storyteller and the art is fantastic.
#2 includes a series of flashbacks of the Green Hornet and Kato's lives during the 30's leading up to their costumed careers, and it delves into the politically charged atmosphere of Europe, Asia and Africa--so anyone with an interest in history, specifically the years between the World Wars, this will be an added bonus for you.
High recommendation!
Posted by Outdoor Miner on :
GH:Year One has been my favorite of the Hornet books so far. Wagner just gets this sort of storytelling.
Kevin Smith's book has been a decent read, but I don't know who Dynamite thought they were fooling with that "Who's Gonna Die" cover scam - only one choice ever made sense from a story perspective.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
I'm still behind on Smith's Green Hornet series and still can't recommend Wagner's Green Hornet: Year One series enough.
In the meantime, I ended up buying the third Green Hornet series just for the hell of it a week ago when I was looking for something to read, The Green Hornet Strikes, mainly because I've been buying up all the issues of Lone Ranger which is written by the same writer, Brett Mathews.
My impression of #1 is this: it was not a terrible comic or a bad comic in anyway, but because Dynamite is releasing three seperate Green Hornet comics at once (plus two Kato ones), I have no intention of buying them all and this was the weakest of the three. Not fair, certainly, but it is what it is.
The premise, of a Green Hornet in the not so distant future, is a solid one, and I like the visuals as well. However, the storytelling felt very disjointed to me, and it left me feeling like I didn't get enough meat to the story for a debut issue as well as having a little trouble following it all. The best comparison I could make is it felt a little like James Robinson's current work at DC on Superman: a little all over the map that could use the hand of a good editor. So that was a bit of a turnoff.
I think I will probably not be getting anymore issues of the Green Hornet Strikes. (As I said before, I wil be getting the entire rest of Green Hornet: Year One and give Smith's comic a few more issues at least).
The covers by John Cassidy here are incredible though. The next one is so good I almost want to buy it, but I don't buy comics just for covers. All of the covers on the Green Hornet comics have been great, I must say.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Smith's Green Hornet #3 was no surprise as OM says above, but its managed to maintain my interest level as the story continues to progress. Plus, we do get an awesome Kato / Britt Reid Jr. sequence. I do think if Kato dies though it'll be a little *too* telegraphed. I'm going to keep buying a bit longer and see how it goes but its starting to look like I'll probably get the entire mini.
Not as good as Wagner's Green Hornet: Year One, but proving to be an entertaining read.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Miner, still picking these up? I'm enjoying the hell out of Wagner's 'Green Hornet: Year One'. And while I was on the verge of dropping the Kevin Smith series, the latest issue was a serious move in the right direction and was good enough to keep me coming back for more.
Posted by Outdoor Miner on :
I am still picking up the books and I'm in agreement with you on both counts.
Wagner continues to both just get the whole GA vibe and add great characterizations. Smith has moved back towards popcorn-summer-movie territory and his series is the better for it.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
After reading the latest Green Hornet: Year One, I felt it was so good, I *had* to mention it again, even though it just reaffirms what we've been saying all along.
Out of all the various "classic icons of the Golden Age redone" in recent years (a trend which just seems to be everywhere by every publisher), this is probably the best attempt besides Cooke 12 issues of the Spirit.
And those covers--WOW. Both Cassidy and Wagner are just delivering beautiful covers at a level every comic book should be trying to match.

How many issues into it, Des? Has it been collected into a trade yet?
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
The 6th has probably come out by now (I'm behind and haven't been to the store in a few weeks), so I suspect the first trade will be coming out shortly, collecting the first 6 issues. I highly recommend!

^You've gotta start gettin' yer ass to the comic book store more often, Kid! Don't use the baby as an excuse! Posted by Outdoor Miner on :
The first Green Hornet:Year One trade was in the October solicits. It'll contain #1-6 and a complete cover gallery.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Hot Damn, Green Hornet: Year One is a good title. I'd say it's probably the best 'street level superhero' comic book on the marketplace right now, better than all Batman, Daredevil, etc. type competitors. The premise, the writing, the art...everything is terrific.
I'm way behind on Kevin Smith's Green Hornet title but plan to catch up shortly. I believe he leaves around #10? Is that when the title ends? (I'm asking OM since I know he's also been reading).
Posted by Outdoor Miner on :
Yeah, I'm pretty sure #10 wraps up Smith's run, at which time I'll likely opt out. I've liked it, but not enough to continue past this storyline. Oddly enough, I really like the Black Hornet costume design much more than what the heroes are wearing.
Looking forward to the next Year One issue.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
I'm a little more caught up on Smith's run and I'm glad to see the story reaching culmination. I'm glad Smight got right through the Green Hornet training portion of the story. I'm finding the more proficient Green Hornet much more likable. The interactions between Green Hornet and Kato (Mulan) are probably the best part of the series
Two things I don't like:
- The corny Kevin Smith dialogue that already feels dated. "Kung-Fu Bitches!". Maybe I'm finally getting old. I felt it was too juvenile and couldn't help but think "hm, Matt Wanger wouldn't have that in there".
- The fate of Kato (the original). I'm hoping/wondering whether he still has a part to play. If so, and it could easily be, it could still be awesome.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
For those not following this thread, please make a note that Green Hornet: Year One is the really excellent title of the bunch and a comic I highly recommend, considering worthy to be in the top 5 best comics in the industry right now. Meanwhile, there is also another Green Hornet title a few of us are following, Green Hornet, which I am just catching up on after being delinquent in going to the CBS for a few weeks as I suddenly had (4) issues to catch up on.
#9 – 10 completes the initial Kevin Smith story-arc, which sets up the Green Hornet & Kato hereafter. All in all, I thought it was a pretty solid outing. It wasn’t the greatest thing I’ve ever read but it was pretty entertaining. While the aforementioned Year One by Matt Wagner is an example of masterful story-telling and mood, this title is more like a summer action film, complete with fights and one-liners. The final two issues, in which everything is brought to a conclusion essentially, played up that aspect more than anything. Smith’s signature humor is ever-present and like the previous 8 issues, it works for me at times and at other times I think it really bombs. Ultimately, the story suffers from being pretty unoriginal, even borrowing heavily from other Kevin Smith stories. However, both the Green Hornet and Kato (the new ones) end up being pretty likeable and there is no doubt that have terrific chemistry that is fun to read.
The artwork is by Jonathan Lui, who has a very explosive style that I found appealing throughout. It’s entirely different from Green Hornet: Year One, which is a nice mix and separates the comics well. Lui stays on after Smith leaves, allowing his art to be a nice bridge to the next story-arc, which is by Phil Hester (who was basically doing layouts for the comic at the end, as I suspect Smith’s notorious inability to complete anything came into play).
I originally planned to opt out of this comic following the end of Smith’s run but when you don’t show up at your CBS for 6 weeks you end up with a lot of stuff in your pile, and so I ended up with #11 and #12, the first two issues of Hester’s arc. I was ready to drop the title immediately if it wasn’t up to par, so the pressure was on. But actually, I like Phil Hester’s story quite so far! He is ready to move the characters further along in their continued maturation, which is highlighted by Green Hornet & Kato having to take on the next big threat entirely on their own as their allies head off to Japan (which we also see). As I said, I quite like the new GH and Kato and Hester has a good grip on how Smith made them likeable. Hester also makes sure to introduce at least one new member to the supporting cast (which is needed). He plays up the action-oriented nature of this title (versus the others) and I think he’ll quickly surpass Smith in story-telling skills here.
So, for the time being, I’m still collecting. The main Green Hornet title isn’t the greatest thing going but it’s a pretty solid super-hero outing with a sense of fun. Certainly, I wish many DC and Marvel titles could be as good as this (or what I really wish is they were as good as Wagner’s Green Hornet: Year One, which I will also be reviewing later this month).
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Still one of the very best comics out there is Green Hornet: Year One which remains a clear example of how superhero comic book stories can be done. Matt Wagner continues to impress and artist Aaron Campell is just getting better and better. The artwork is very detailed with lots of panels so you get a ton of bang for your buck. The colors by Carlos Lopez also have the right amount of color per page, with reds in the backgrounds, green tones and yellow lights that highlight the atmosphere and tone Wagner has established. Everything is really tight. I also love those Francisco Francavalli covers.
#6 kicks off a new story-arc as the Green Hornet continues his assault on Chicago’s mobs. Like the first arc, there is a duel story-telling approach which I’m enjoying very much here. The second story features the first 6 months of Brit Reid and Kato getting the Green Hornet up and running, from an HQ in this issue to many other things to come. This is done really well and recaptures the awe involved in a superhero having a secret lair, advanced technology, etc.—many things we longtime comic book fans often ignore now and take for granted.
This comic works incredibly well as a blend of modern story-telling with pulp / Golden Age sensibilities. I’m absolutely loving it. If you don’t collect it, I think I secretly hate you.

I finally read through the first Year One trade today and absolutely loved it. Now I want to grab the Zorro Trades...just got to find them and the money...
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Knew you'd love it!
Posted by Dev Em on :
Now I got to find the next few issues.
Then work on the Zorro stuff, and check for the Lone Ranger stuff as well...probably at some local mini cons.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
You know, while Green Hornet: Year One continues to be one of the very best comics out there, I'm also still collecting the main Green Hornet comic. Every month since Kevin Smith's run ended when I get it at the comic book shop I think "hm, if I don't like this issue, I might cancel it". And every time I read the latest issue, I think "you know what, I like this comic!".
I really like the continuation of the status quo Smith has set up, and Hester coming on as writer has added a bit of seriousness to the series that takes it up a notch IMO. I'll definitely continue for now.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
GH: Y1 continues to melt my face with its awesomeness. We're approaching the end game of the second arc and the tension is high.
I know Dev & Eryk are eagerly awaiting the release of the 2nd trade, and I have a feeling you'll be as equally enthusiastic when it happens.
I wish Wagner was writing this series forever! I know he's returning to Zorro for "Round 2", and I can't wait for that. I'm hoping that happens here with Green Hornet as well (since he doesn't have much DC work since they stupidly cancelled his Madame Xanadu so she can fit in the DCnU).
I also love Aaron Campbell's art here. I'd prefer if he followed Wagner to Zorro since my favorite Francisco Francavalli isn't returning with him.
I've said it before but the quality on this and Zorro have been so good that anything Wagner does from now on is an automatic buy by me for at least a tryout.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
Meanwhile, the regular Green Hornet title in the "Kevin Smith Universe" post-Smith is somethign I'm continuing to buy. I don't love it like GH:Y1, but I am enjoying it enough to keep buying. (Every month I hesitate at the CBS, considering to put it back but then ultimately buy it).
Artist Jonathan Lui is doing a great job, and writer Phil Hester is actually turning out to be an improvement over Smith.
This is one of those comics that if there are 2 bad issues in a row, I'm dropping it; however, that has not happened.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
The penultimate issue of Matt Wagner's Green Hornet: Year One is out and the quality of this series remains strong as we approach the end. It's difficult to come up with new ways to praise the series, so I'll just reiterate that it's good enough to be in my top 5, and better than every DC and Marvel comic out.
As we head towards the conclusion, a lot of the subplots and elements are being tied up. While most of them are big surprises (especially if you know anything about the Green Hornet), there is a certain pleasing quality to each milestone being reached.
Wagner's writing continues to be akin to sitting in on a doctoral course on writing, and Aaron Campbell's art is simply terrific.
I've since stopped buying the other Green Hornet series so I'm really going to miss this one. I def plan on jumping back to Zorro with Wagner, but if GH:Y1 continues, I'll at least try out the post-Wagner issues.
Posted by Dev - Em on :
I so need to catch up on this series...but I think I may just get the second trade, to match the first one.
...and I picked up the first 2 issues of the new Zorro. (reviews to come soon as I read them.
Posted by Cobalt Kid on :
One of the best comics on the market wrapped up with #12, the incredible Green Hornet: Year One by Matt Wagner and Aaron Campbell. I won’t get too into a review because anyone who glances throughout this thread will see it littered with praise for this series. It’s definitely the best of all the ‘crimefighter’ comics out there. All the various Bat-titles in the DCnU should take some cues from this.
The finale to the series builds on previous issues and offers a nice conclusion to the initial war on crime by the Green Hornet and Kato. At the end, Britt Reid has gone from a man with a speck of an idea to a fully formed crime fighter that has matured and found his new role. It’s been a helluva a ride and now I only wish there was 100 more issues written by Wagner and drawn by Campbell to go to showcase what comes next.
Writing and art were masterful, as always, and each character gets a moment or two towards the end. We even get to see the reporter Lowry have a moment, and are introduced to his partner “Clicker” the photographer. I’d love to see more about them and the role the newspaper plays in cleaning up the city.
I really hope Wagner returns to the Green Hornet for more stories. Maybe he’ll rotate between this and Zorro (which he also does exquisitely).
Highly recommended!

What a fuckin' BARGAIN! I've read the first five issues over the last couple of days, and GH: Year One is at least as good as the Zorro and Lone Ranger series that Dynamite has also put out! Love the writing and the art, but what is especially striking to me is Francesco Francavilla's awesome job as colorist here. I talked about how great of an artist FF is in my posts about his runs on Detective Comics and Zorro, but I prefer the 'Tec stuff because he colored over his own art. Here, he's just the colorist over Aaron Campbell's art, but he adds SO much to the final product that it takes my breath away! FF uses a lot of muted monochromes that really add a ton of mood to the piece, especially one set in the '30s.
That's not to say that the colors are the only good thing about it, by any stretch, but I'm excited that one of the best artists in the business is also such a superior colorist! Seriously, he should get a friggin' Eisner just for his coloring work here! Makes me wonder if FF can script and letter, too....
I predict I'll devour the remaining 7 issues very quickly! YUM!
