YouTube Wednesday: THE GREEN HORNET "Deadline for Death"

Continuing our weekly feature "YouTube Wednesday"...
A series of robberies of wealthy homes has one thing in common...all the victims had recently been profiled by Daily Sentinel reporter Mike Axford!
Has he used his interviews to case the homes?
When Axford is arrested at the site of the latest break-in, The Green Hornet and Kato must uncover evidence to free the hapless newshound.
SideNotes:
The Green Hornet has his first solo fight scene...which he loses! (To be fair, it is against three guys.) When he and Kato catch up to the three crooks in the finale, guess who wins?
Seeking info, The Hornet questions a stolen-goods fence named Tubbs, indicating that he's been allowing the fence to continue operating as long as he served The Hornet when needed. A nice touch, adding credibility to the crimefighter's cover as a criminal.
Later, there's a scene at Reid's home where the duo, in costume, but without masks or hats, review evidence. This happens several times in the series. (You never saw Batman and Robin partially in costume)
More location shooting, this time at a small local airport and aircraft hanger also used in several Batman episodes.
Much more day-for-night photography.
Here's the 12th filmed and aired episode..."Deadline for Death".

Lost Heroes of the Golden Age of Comics vs HITLER!

Rottener than the Red Skull!
More lethal than Lex Luthor!
More menacing than Moriarity!
Deadlier than Doctor Doom!
He's the Ultimate Villain!
And, he was REAL!
Adolf Hitler tricked or forced millions into obeying his maniac desires, and plunged the Earth into the deadliest global conflict ever!
The Allied armed forces (including the US Army, Navy, and Marines) were the REAL heroes who defeated him.
But, on the home front, comic books provided Americans with inspirational imagery of superheroes clobbering, smashing, bashing, kicking, even SPANKING Der Fuerher!
Here are a dozen of the best of those classic images from the war years, digitally-remastered and restored directly from the actual comic books, on our newest 12-month calendar for 2011...Lost Heroes of the Golden Age of Comics versus Hitler!

Perfect birthday or holiday present for the WWII and/or comic book fan in your life, especially combined with  one of the books below or another of our Lost Heroes of the Golden Age of Comics™ collectibles to make a gift set!
And then go "...heil (razzberry), heil (razzberry), right in Der Fuehrer's Face!"
