First off, I didn't realise that The Lone Ranger and The Green Hornet were related. Turns out they are.
When I picked up this title I was imagining some sort of time travel storyline. I didn't expect the Lone Ranger to be an old man. However there was enough flashbacks to get a sense of him in his prime.
I enjoyed the artwork and the action sequences. The storyline while simplistic seemed to reflect a lot of what is happening in politics today. In fact TLR makes a comment about 'jews, people of colour and homosexuals being persecuted', and while I agree with the sentiment it it's unlikely to be something that would have been said in 1936/7, what with homosexuality being against the law. (Had there been an indication of a more intimate relationship between one of the partnerships I'd have even let this slide)  Apart from this slip the history seemed to be pretty much on the money.
Where the story fell down for me is that it seems to get bogged down under its own backstory and on occasion took itself too seriously.
Overall an interesting title.

The main character is a cockmuppet and Kato just let's Britt Reid walk all over him.   There were a couple points where I fantasized this scene:

Britt says something assholish to Kato, like he'll ask for his opinion when he wants it or some shit. 

Kato: COCKPUNCH!   *then punches Britt in the cock, pumps his fists, and runs the fuck away, never to return*

That would have made me much happier.   Add to this a lack of Black Beauty, and I just wanted it to end a lot of the time.   Because Britt is such a bastard, but he's supposed to be the hero, and a lot of this literally revolves around him.   I hated him.   

This is a lot of fun.   And it's easy to see where this is headed: this is going to be a new Green Hornet, although most of issue number one sets up this story by telling the origin of the original Green Hornet.   

And that's okay by me.   Green Hornet is just plain fun.   And not only that, there's the Black Beauty.   

Mmmm.   The Black Beauty is just a gorgeous machine.   I envy Britt for having her at his beck and call, although I envy Kato more for being her driver.   She's fully equipped, weaponized, and just plain sexy.   

I have posted my review of this excellent adventure tale with some fun historical figure appearances on my blog, The Itinerant Librarian. Click the link to check it out and learn more. Fans of these pulp-era heroes will very likely enjoy this one.
