The Green Hornet & Kato: Detroit Noir City Kickstarter Launching Soon!
Greetings Denizens of the Night:
It is with delight that I share the good news that we’re about 10 days out from the launch of the Kickstarter for The Green Hornet & Kato: Detroit Noir City, a new anthology from Moonstone, edited David Boop, featuring new stories with the heroes of print, comic books, radio, and television The Green Hornet & Kato, along with the usual cast of characters and some all new ones you’re sure to love.
I am so proud that my story, Blind Pig Shakedown, which centers the African American civil rights movement and takes place during the Long Hot Summer of 1967 against the backdrop of the 12th Street Riots, will appear alongside stories by Timothy Zahn & Kevin J. Anderson, Matthew Baugh, Keith R.A. DeCandido, Mary Fan, Michael Haspil, Megan Mackie, Kim May, James A. Moore, and Bill Willingham
The hard-hitting story takes place in the muggy days ramping up to the riot, and puts DA Frank Scanlon, the Green Hornet and Kato up front and center during the historic events and well-documented racial profiling and police corruption that fueled the riots.Above – along with the Green Hornet logo – are Creative Commons images from the 1967 Detroit Riots, which started out at a speakeasy known as a blind pig. Photo credits are US Federal Bureau of Investigation, Phil Cherner, and Sekai.
The Green Hornet & Kato: Detroit Noir City also features a stunning cover by Matt Wagner, a legendary artist in the world of comics. STAY TUNED FOR THE OFFICIAL COVER REVEAL!
