The Green Hornet  is an American comic book series published by Dynamite Entertainment.

Kevin Smith's Green Hornet (2010-2013)

The first series published by Dynamite Entertainment premiered in 2010 and ran until 2013. The first 10-issue story arc of the series was written by writer/director Kevin Smith. The book's story is based on the unused script Smith had written for a Green Hornet feature film.

Production
The idea of a Green Hornet film written by writer/director Kevin Smith had been in the works since 2004 but never came to fruition. The script was acquired by Dynamite Entertainment and made into an ongoing Green Hornet comic book series. The first issue was published with a March 2010 cover date. Smith wrote the first ten issues.

Smith subsequently wrote another comic book, Batman '66 Meets the Green Hornet which featured the Adam West version of Batman teaming up with the Green Hornet. That series premiered in 2014, and lasted twelve issues.
