What green hornet! It's the biggest of all game! Public enemies who try to destroy our America! With this faithful valid Cato, Britt Reid, daring young publisher, matches with the underworld, risking his life, the criminals and racketeers within the law may feel its weight by the sting of the green hornet.
Britt Reid, as he races toward another thrilling adventure, the green hornet strikes again. Can two men of mystery, two unknowns, continue to exist in the same city?
The big four gang, under world organization of ruthless rackets, is led by a man who has never seen, even by his gang, a voice known only as Mr. Big. In order to force the Daily Sentinel to stop its campaign against the rackets, Mr. Big 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. I'll have you change in a minute, Mr. King.
Late one night near closing time in a small neighborhood drugstore, the man behind the counter made change for a solitary customer. Three makes 40, 50, 75, $1. Thank you. OK, Tim. Was there something else?
No. Oh, well, it's late and so on. Yeah, it's late. So what? I'd like to close it. Yeah, maybe you will close up. So if there's nothing else you want, I'll let you. I guess you didn't hear me, pal.
