Did you know that the Lone Ranger and the Green Hornet are connected?

Both characters were developed by Fran Strker for a Detroit radio station in the 1930s

no, but makes sense, seem similar hero characters. some people have a her o complex with the talent and access to turn it into real life. I admire people with such skills, like to read that book... not that I'd want to go near hollywood.
