Dynamite Entertainment has announced a thrilling new series bringing two of the most historic pulp superhero figures together for the first time ever. The Green Hornet / Miss Fury starts its tales this November, through the stylings of writers Alex Segura and Henry Barajas, alongside rising star artist Federico Sorressa.
When Marla Drake and Britt Reid meet, sparks fly — and it’s not just because of the bullets ricocheting around them! Their alter egos of Miss Fury and The Green Hornet are two vigilantes with very different styles of crimefighting set on a collision course. When the two vigilantes discover they not only shared a mentor – the mysterious crime-fighter known as the Silver Shrike – and that the man that helped shape them into the heroes they are today is dead, the Hornet and Fury must put aside their differences to solve the mystery. But as the unlikely partners dig deeper into their beloved mentor’s death, they uncover a deeper conspiracy that looms as a threat over all “masks” – and one that could be gunning for them, too! The Green Hornet, by the book and willing to throw punches wherever a crime happens, bristles at Miss Fury’s more precise approach – a strategy driven by her desire to “cut off the head” of organized crime, instead of allowing it to keep festering. Can the duo – along with Green Hornet’s ever-loyal partner, Kato, get to the truth before they’re consumed by a threat they have yet to discover? Only time will tell.
Dynamite, Segura, Barajas, Sorressa, and the whole team invite readers to solve the mystery of who killed the Silver Shrike!
Not an origin story or reimagining, The Green Hornet / Miss Fury is set in the middle of the swinging sixties, blending the charm of the Hornet’s TV era with an added coat of neo-noir wonder. Both characters date back to the 1930s and 40s, with multiple subsequent eras of their adventures. The Green Hornet has featured across radio, films, television, and countless comics, including an acclaimed legacy through Dynamite for nearly 15 years. Miss Fury made her mark as the first female superhero created by a woman, the trailblazing June Tarpé Mills.
The series will feature a set of hard-boiled covers from the likes of Francesco Francavilla, Jae Lee, Jonathan Case, and Jacob Edgar.
