Review: Green Hornet: Dark Tomorrow #2

Green Hornet: Dark Tomorrow #2

There will be people in your lives that only come into it but for a moment. You’ll question the reason behind it for days, months, and even years. You will remember how they made you feel, made you laugh, or how they infuriated you. That’s the crazy thing about crossing paths, it can be for a day or it can be for a lifetime.

Your strongest bonds tend to be an accident, at least in my experience. In the show A Million Little Things, a group of friends bond over the one day they got stuck in an elevator. That’s why when long-standing bonds break, more often than not, people grow apart. In the second issue of Green Hornet: Dark Tomorrow, we find our titular hero fighting a one-time confidant.

We catch up with the Green Hornet as he fights Kato. It’s a tense fight where we find out exactly who these two are to each other, and it’s not what you think. Meanwhile, the Steel Syndicate looks to finally end the Green Hornet once and for all by setting a trap. Fortunately, Kato riding a flying Black Beauty comes to the rescue. It all leads to daring action and pulp adventure.

Overall, a story that only causes the series to get darker. The story by Clint McElroy is action-packed. The art by the creative team of Dave Simmons and Jeff Butler is gorgeous. Altogether, an issue that elevates the story.
