Green Hornet Comics

From 1942 to 1949, Harvey Comics brought the masked vigilante the Green Hornet to the four-color page, with a run of 37 issues that pitted Britt Reid and his trusted partner Kato against a rogues' gallery that even included Adolf Hitler. Anchored by the talents of Bob Powell, A. W. Nugent, and C. C. Beck on scripts, and artists like Al Avison, Powell, and Arturo Cazeneuve on art, the series captured the pulp hero's wartime and post-war adventures. This Golden Age title matters as a key early comic-book adaptation of a radio legend, showcasing the Hornet's signature sting alongside supporting cast member Lenore Case.
