YouTube Wednesday: THE GREEN HORNET "Fury of the Dragon"

As we mentioned in our YouTube Wednesday entry here, there were two Green Hornet tv episode compilation films produced after Bruce Lee's death.
This is the second one, which received very limited distribution in the US, but was very popular overseas.
As you can see from the ad art, the producers actually played down the connection to the Hornet tv series, playing up Lee with an illo based on stills from his other films!
Using the episodes "Trouble for Prince Charming",  "Bad Bet on a 459-Silent", "The Ray is for Killing", and "Secret of the Sally Bell" as the basis of the film, the editors also added unrelated fight footage from other episodes to pad the running time (as was done in the first film).
It's an interesting, and sad, note to the Green Hornet's career, at a point where he doesn't even appear on the poster for a film version of his own show!
Enjoy.

Dear Beatrice Fairfax...the ORIGINAL Miss LonelyHearts Columnist!

Comic books aren't just about spandex-clad heroes and heroines in battles of cosmic import!
They also tell intimate tales of heartbreak & joy, betrayal & redemption, and misery & true love.
God knows, we at Atomic Kommie Comics™ can relate...

Let her help you express your true feelings on the Most Important of Days--Valentines Day with greeting cards, teddy bears, mugs, and even "naughty" undies!

And, if she can't assist your love-life, perhaps something from one of our other sections at True Love Comics Tales™ including...
All You Need is Love...
