Transcript

What green hornet! The biggest of all game! Public enemies who try to destroy our America! With this faithful valid Cato, Britt Reid, daring young publisher, matters with the underworld. Ricking his life, the criminals and blacketeers within the law may feel its weight by the sting of the green hornet.

Ride with Britt Reid as he races toward another thrilling adventure. The green hornet strikes again. Then two men of mystery, two unknowns, continue to exist in the same city. The big four gang, underworld organization of ruthless rackets, is led by a man who is never seen, even by his gang, a voice known only as Mr. Bigg.

In order to force the Daily Sentinel to stop its campaign against the rackets, Mr. Bigg attempted to kill Britt Reid. The attempt failed, but rather than subject his staff to danger, Britt Reid gave out the information that he was leaving on a secret vacation.

He did leave, only to return to the city as the green hornet. At the wheel of the black beauty, masked and mysterious, the tree smashed blow after blow at the big four, trying to uncover the head of the gang, Mr. Big.
