Green Hornet

Though short-lived, this 1948 single-issue revival of the Green Hornet from Publications Services Limited brought the masked crimefighter back to newsstands in the postwar era. With art by Al Avison and Lee Elias, the comic continued the radio hero's pulp tradition of battling organized crime and corruption. Its brief, self-contained story stands as a minor but authentic artifact of the character's early print adventures.
