Alex Ross Makes Love To The Green Hornet Comic

Yeah let’s be real here.  I’m in the dark when it comes to Green Hornet.  Don’t know much of anything.  I know that he has a side-kick, Kato.  I know that Bruce Lee rocked it (I think, right?).  And I know the dude likes the color green.  And maybe hornets too.  But I can’t even say that for certain.

But I can say unequivocally that I love me some Alex Ross.  So with the earlier news that Kevin Smith will see his 2004 Green Hornet screenplay envisioned with panel borders, we can couple that with word that Alex Ross will be redesigning said hero as well as providing covers for the series.

Now you might have noticed that young Kato over there has grown some additional equipment in the general chesty area.  We might also assume that he has lost a few jewels in the process, or maybe not, who knows till we read Kevin Smith’s comic.  I can’t wait for the first traditionalist to pipe up with something to say about that.  Seriously?  Taking a kung fu action character and adding a level of hotness?  In some kind of leather outfit?  What the hell is there to complain about here?

Look at that!  I don’t know if she’s going to kill me with those throwing star/hornet thingies but I cannot wait to find out.  Yowza!

As for Mr. Hornet himself, I dig the mask.  It’s a nice shape that improves upon the generic “cover up the eyes” mask that we’ve all known and seen a million times.  

So does this mean that I’ll be buying the series?  Quite possibly.  With some swank covers by Ross and some wity dialogue from Smith I can say that I am very very intrigued.
