What green hornet! He hunts the biggest of all game. Public enemies will try to destroy our America. With his faithful valet Cato, Britt Reid, daring young publisher, matters with the underworld, risking his life. The criminals and racketeers within the law may feel it's weight by the sting of the green hornet.

Green Hornet. Ride with Britt Reid as he races toward another thrilling adventure. The Green Hornet strikes again. Hurry, Kato! Here's where we smash a murder ring rocket. Just a minute, ladies.
