Secret Saga of THE GREEN HORNET "My Last Case" Part 2

We Have Already Seen...
Cover by Jim Steranko

...after years of work, newspaper publisher Britt Reid, pretending to be a criminal in his secret identity as The Green Hornet, has broken organized crime in his city.
With the major cartels gone, Reid feels he can finally retire his masked alter-ego, marry, and live a normal life.
But fate, in the form of the last of the ganglords, has other plans...
Next Week:
The Holocaust and The Hornet!
This segment incorporates the fact that The Green Hornet radio show changed Kato's ethnic background from Japanese to Filipino...but did so over a year before Pearl Harbor..and offers a logical in-universe explanation as to how it was accomplished!
Note: The two Universal movie serials, Green Hornet (1940) and Green Hornet Strikes Again (1941) stated Kato was Korean and that Britt had saved him from Japanese racists during a trip in Asia.
