Green Hornet / Miss Fury #2
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeGreen Hornet / Miss Fury #2 is a milestone in pulp comics crossover history: it marks the first-ever meeting of these two characters in any medium, uniting Britt Reid's Green Hornet with Marla Drake — the alter ego of Miss Fury, the first female superhero to be created, written, and drawn by a woman. By staging that meeting in a 1960s neo-noir detective framework, the series consciously bridges the Golden Age newspaper-strip tradition of June Tarpé Mills with the TV-era charm of the Green Hornet, giving both characters a shared continuity they never had during their original runs. Issue #2 specifically deepens the philosophical rift between two contrasting vigilante ethics — Reid's rules-bound approach versus Drake's 'cut off the head' ruthlessness — making it the installment where the series' central thematic argument crystallizes rather than merely sets up. The five-issue run was later collected in a trade paperback, ensuring this crossover chapter has a permanent place in the ongoing archive of both characters.

The series was conceived when Dynamite Entertainment approached writer Alex Segura, who had long wanted to work with pulp heroes and immediately recruited co-writer Henry Barajas, with whom he had been developing Green Hornet story concepts for some time. Segura has spoken publicly about the series as a deliberate love letter to the Golden Age of comics, and Barajas noted his deep roots in the character via the Harvey Comics stories and the 1966 Bruce Lee television adaptation. Artist Federico Sorressa, described in promotional materials as a rising star, handled interior art across the run, while a rotating stable of cover artists — Francesco Francavilla, Jae Lee and June Chung, Jonathan Case, and Jacob Edgar — contributed distinct tonal interpretations to each issue. Dynamite had been publishing Green Hornet comics since 2009 and had featured Miss Fury in crossover titles since 2012 and her own series beginning in 2013, giving the publisher a well-established stewardship of both properties before this team-up.
