Green Hornet

The Hornet faces his most dangerous enemy ever–an egotistical, arrogant Britt Reid! In his alter-ego as a powerful newspaper publisher, the Hornet has lost control, becoming a social crusader far too sure of himself and of his judgment. But when he finally goes too far, an innocent man pays a terrible price–and the legend of the Green Hornet begins its cataclysmic collapse!

Rocketing out of the events of the monster hit movie, follow the continuing adventures of Green Hornet and Kato as a power struggle for control over drug trafficking in Los Angeles turns violent. Green Hornet and Kato are just starting out, but they've attracted attention from the cops, the drug pushers, and even Homeland Security! Britt and Kato keep their alter egos hidden, but a new set of masked men on the scene complicates matters.

When Green Hornet and Kato respond to a break-in at a federal reserve bank, they find themselves caught in a battle between federal troops and a band of thieves. These would-be robbers are no common street thugs. They are a well-trained and expertly led force, armed with high-powered exoskeletons. It's all-out warfare, with the new Green Hornet and Kato trying to keep downtown Century City intact. And, there's the simmering relationship between Britt and Mulan. How far will our heroes go?
