Decent story but as a sequel to the excellent Mark Waid miniseries, this fell flat. This would've been fine as a stand-alone piece.Product details

Green Hornet Reign Of The Demon #4 eBook David Liss Kewber Baal Reviews
'Green Hornet Reign of the Demon' written by David Liss and with art by Kewber Baal finds the Green Hornet and Kato with some new competition for crimefighting in Central City.
There is a new masked criminal in Central City going by the name of Demone. Along with the new criminal, there is also a new chief of police and, coincidentally, a new crimefighter named Swashbuckler. At first, he is convinced that the Green Hornet and Kato are the bad guys that they lead everyone to believe. Can they keep Swashbuckler from getting in the way and stop Demone from his reign of terror?
The art is pretty good. So is the story. There are some twists and turns along the way. I've read a few Green Hornet graphic novels and I thought this was better than most.
I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Dynamite Entertainment, Diamond Book Distributors, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
There's a new criminal mastermind in town and he wears a mask, Demone. There also a new vigilante, Swashbuckler.
The Good I liked Swashbuckler and thought it was kind of cool that he was an immigrant. I also liked seeing Lenore learning the vigilante game. Green Hornet could definitely use more strong female characters.
The Bad Demone is set up as having this larger plan and further motives than making money but we never find out what those are. That's OK in an ongoing series, but not so in miniseries. All dangling plot lines should be tied up at the end of a miniseries.
The Ugly The coloring in this book was pretty atrocious. It's dark and muddy and obscures the art. I thought the art was nothing special until I got to the sketches in the back and they looked better than the actual book.
Received an advance copy from NetGalley and Dynamite in exchange for an honest review.
This is another Green Hornet comic book volume that I enjoyed. I liked that this one is “old school” in that it is situated in the past rather than the present. Putting the Green Hornet in our contemporary era seems to take away something from the story and I was disappointed when other Green Hornet graphic novels did that. So I’m glad that one of the latest Green Hornet from Dynamite Entertainment retain the 1930s-40s era of the Green Hornet. Note If you don’t want to read any spoiler skip the next paragraph and read what follows after that.
This story was different than other ones I read in that the Green Hornet not only had his partner Kato helping him but also a lady name Casey who is one of Britt Reid’s secretary who knows of Reid’s secret that he is the Green Hornet. In fact in thinking about Casey one sees an interesting theme in this book of those who want to help the Green Hornet even though the Green Hornet doesn’t want it or acknowledge it and others knowing the identity of the Green Hornet. Concerning the story’s interesting subplots about those helping the Green Hornet’s partner we see the example of Casey wanting to prove herself to the Green Hornet that she is useful and capable of taking on dangerous situations. Then there’s the introduction of another mysterious costume hero name the Swashbuckler who wants to help the Green Hornet and while readers get the sense of uncertainty of whether the Swashbuckler is a hero or a potential undercover villain that is part of the suspense of the story nevertheless the Swashbuckler has his moments of assisting the Green Hornet. Then there’s the second subplot of those who know more about the Green Hornet more than the Green Hornet realizes. Of course there’s Casey but the Swashbuckler also argues against the Green Hornet saying he knows the Green Hornet is not a villain but one of the good guys. Furthermore you also have a female journalist who wants to talk to Britt Reid about the Green Hornet who seem to know more than others do (see the conclusion!). I found the subplots just as interesting, if not even more interesting than the main plot of the Green Hornet going after his villains. Why is that? I think there’s no such thing as a “lone ranger,” and as the saying goes, even the Lone Ranger had “Tonto.” God has created as social beings; we also need others in a healthy way.
Overall a fun story-line. There’s the classic good guys versus bad guys and the duo of a hero with his sidekick(s) scenario. But the subplot mentioned above made it more interesting. I do recommend this graphic novel.

I have almost no knowledge of The Green Hornet or the mythology of the character but I had no problem following the story.
The Green Hornet and Kato have recently stamped out a Chicago crime lord and now a new figure has stepped up to fill the void - Demone, a mask wearing criminal mastermind with a sinister agenda. As The Hornet tries to get a handle on who this new villain is and what he's all about another larger-then-life character arrives on the scene. The Swashbuckler is a vigilante with a visual image that calls to mind a mix of Guy Fawkes and D'artagnan. Is he friend or foe? That's what The Green Hornet has to determine.
I have recently returned to the world of comics after a 25 year or so absence. I have no idea what is trendy, edgy, or state-of-the-art. I know what I like. I have an "old-school" type sensibility. I want a good story, some decent art, and to be entertained. Green Hornet Reign of the Demon fits the bill perfectly.
The art is first rate with a color scheme that seems to really accentuate the era (pre-World War II) being represented in the story. A splash of bright color here and there with darker colors filling out the scene without being bleak or overly dark. It sets a kind of noir tone that works well.
The story is good. A tiny bit cliched and maybe a tad corny at times but, again, it serves the overall tone by keeping with the era being represented.
I would recommend The Green Hornet Reign of The Demon to any fan of classic hero comics.
