When Marla Drake and Britt Reid meet, sparks fly and it's not just because of the bullets ricocheting around them!
As their alter egos Miss Fury and The Green Hornet, the two vigilantes have very different styles of crimefighting. But when they both turn up to investigate the murder of beloved professor Javier Mercado, they soon discover that they have more in common than they realized: Mercado was a mentor to both of them at different times, back when he too led a double life as the Silver Shrike.
With each having a personal stake in finding Mercado's killer, Drake and Reid must learn how to work together to solve the case if they do more
OverallA solid opening issue that shows promise. The initial meeting between Hornet and Miss Fury is enjoyable, especially with Miss Fury's sarcastic edge contrasting Green Hornet's more straight-laced approach. It will be interesting to see how their working relationship develops over the next few issues, as they're currently in that stage where they're still figuring each other out. Read Full Review
The characters are awesome and I love the whole tone and theme of the issue. It feels nostalgic with a new fresh story. The issue as a whole does lag a little in the pacing department. The gala wants to give more depth to some characters and the setting, but ultimately bogs down the story a touch. Beautiful artwork adorns each panel. Small details, lighting, and action sequences make for an engaging experience. Read Full Review
Though its not exactly aspiring to a whole lot of depth, it IS cool to see the two Golden Age heroes pair-up in a story that is rendered for the page with contemporary visual and narrative aesthetics. As often as its happened in recent years, its honestly still a little weird seeing Green Hornet and Miss Fury in an issue that doesnt move with a 1940s style underneath dialogue and narration that might have been printed on pulp and placed on a magazine rack. They two characters DO manage to feel appealing enough to maintain their appeal, though. This ISNT Batman and Catwoman. Its better. Read Full Review
GREEN HORNET/MISS FURY #1 has the right idea by teaming up with two of the most recognizable pulp heroes to stop a vigilante hunter. Alex Segura and Henry Barajas dream up an idea with gobs of potential and room for other pulp heroes, and Federico Sorressa's artwork is pretty darn solid. That said, the story's strong concept can't overcome jarringly awkward execution. Read Full Review
Best comic by alex segura I’ve ever read
This is fine but will really be for fans of these characters more so than the casual comic reader.
