How did two total strangers meet, become close friends, and then, allies in a war against crime which would span several generations of both their families?

Crime and Punishment!

Feel the Buzz!

THEY'RE Here! THE GREEN HORNET! Yes, That Sentence Actually Makes Sense...

...because over 30 years ago, NOW Comics produced a Green Hornet comic series...

...featuring a multi-generational plotline encompassing the various versions of the character, from 1930s radio to 1940s comics and movie serials to the 1960s TV series.

The primary creatives, writer Ron Fortier and illustrator Jeff Butler, did an amazing job both of tying the original versions together, then adding to the storyline with descendants based in the then-present (1990s)!
Sadly, though Dynamite Comics has reprinted some of the Golden Age Green Hornet books, they've shown no interest in repackaging this particular series, which introduced some of the concepts Dynamite's creatives have used since, such as how the 1930s Britt Reid and Kato met and a contemporary female Kato!
We believe that this now all-but-forgotten series deserves to be seen by present-day fans, so we're running the unseen-for-decades series in weekly chapters on our "brother" RetroBlog Crime & Punishment!

Friday Fun SPEED RACER COMICS "Ralph Snart Meets the Terminator Cockroach"

Last week's Friday Fun entry was among the most popular ever!
So, if you want roaches, I'll give you roaches!

This never-reprinted featurette from NOW Comics' Speed Racer #18 (1989) by creator/writer/artist Marc Hansen was a promo for a new Ralph Snart Adventures series (after a previous series from the same publisher ended).
You can read about this rather...unique...character (whose adventures are still being published) by visiting Marc Hansen's website HERE!
BTW: The "Terminator" reference (even though the roach isn't a robot from the future) is appropriate, since NOW was publishing The Terminator movie tie-in comics!
