You just can't a good old fashion hero down too long. Now, over twenty-years since I penned my last Green Hornet comic adventure, the green clad hero and his martial-arts side-kick Kato, are returning to the front and in more ways then one. First Dynamite ranted and raved about the new comic series, with Kevin Smith and Alex Ross on board...and featuring
another female Kato. Too cool. Then along comes Moonstone and announces a series of prose anthologies. Which is where I came back into the picture, having been asked to write a new story for that first anthology. It's called THE EYES OF THE MADONNA and pits GH & Kato against both mobsters and Soviet spies. Remember, these are the 1960s, amigos. Writing the tale and getting reacquainted with characters that were so much a part of my burgeoning career as a comic writer was a real trip down memory lane. As most of you have seen by this week's Moonstone Press Release, the marketing has begun. Volume One of the Green Hornet Chronicles will be out in June. I don't know about you, but me, I can't wait. BZZZZZZZZ! |

As I've not found a suitable topic to post here for a few days, I thought I'd just mop around and state the obvious. Still no call from Dynamite Comics
In the meanwhile, looking to the end of 2009 and hoping 2010 is going to be a whole lot better. Still writing the new sci-fi webstrip and have started writing the new comic top-secret comic strip I'm doing with Chris Metzer for Wild Wolf Entertainment. Only done a few pages, but that's been enough to revitalize the old creative juices. This is a story I've been wanting to do for a long time. Well...at least since 2003. There's a clue in there regarding the theme, but I won't say any more now. Put on your Sherlock Holmes caps and see if you can figure it what Ron's new comic series is all about. |

Sounds like you have way more rewarding stuff going on than waiting around for some third party to get a clue. You've already made an indelible imprint on the history of the Green Hornet...that's never going to fade away.
