The Green Hornet is an American radio and television masked crusader and crime fighter created by George W. Trendle and Fran Striker. Since its radio debut in the 1930s, The Green Hornet has appeared in numerous serialised dramas in a wide variety of manners. The character appeared in films in the 1940s, and ABC network television series in the 1960s, multiple comic book series from the 1940s and a Hollywood feature film in January 2011. Though various incarnations sometimes change, in most versions The Green Hornet is the later ego of Britt Reid, a wealthy young publisher of the "Daily Sentinel" newspaper by day, who at night goes out to fight crime as the masked "Green Hornet". Reid is always accompanied by his loyal and similarly masked partner, Kato, who drives their technologically advanced car, the "Black Beauty".
