Mark Waid Relaunches “Green Hornet” for Dynamite Comics in 2013!

That’s right folks…it looks like there’s a Green Hornet reboot on the schedule and it’s going to be written by multiple Eisner and Harvey Award-winning writer Mark Waid! He’ll be joined by his Daredevil cohort, Eisner and Harvey Award winning Daredevil artist, Paolo Rivera on covers! They haven’t announced who the regular artist is yet, but one can only hope that he or she will be an Eisner and Harvey Award winning artist or they’re going to feel left out! The title of the new series will be Green Hornet and Katoand the month it hits shelves hasn’t been announced yet, but this is what Waid had to say about it:

“It should come as little surprise that I have an affinity for all costumed crimefighters no matter if their adventures are ‘period pieces’ or not–heroism is heroism regardless of whatever year’s on the calendar. With this Green Hornet project, which I’ve been percolating on for more than ten years, I’m able to meld my love of the Hornet’s legacy with a little bit of Citizen Kane and a lot of Lawrence of Arabia to tell a story never before told–the dark years of the Hornet’s later career and the one mistake he makes that nearly costs him everything.”
