KATO ORIGINS WAY OF THE NINJA #1 |
|
Dynamite debuts an all-new Kato series, set
during the earliest adventures of the Green Hornet and his faithful sidekick!
Early 1942, just months after Pearl Harbor, a police detective knocks on Britt
Reid's door. He's looking for Kato. There's been a murder in the small Korean
section of town. They want Kato's help with the locals. They find a murder crime
scene and their detective instincts kick in. They piece together the crime until
they find a single Japanese character written in blood. It reads "coward". So
begins the Dynamite tale, from writer Jai Nitz, artist Colton (THE COMPLETE
DRACULA) Worley and cover artists Worley and Francesco (ZORRO) Francavilla! |
