This caused me to wonder, what was the origin of the "Green Hornet"? Was it this bomber? Did this inspire the tv show with Bruce Lee?


 The Green Hornet was created in 1936 by George W. Trendle, Fran Striker, and radio director James Jewell for the radio station WXYZ in Detroit, Michigan.

 The character was inspired by the success of Trendle and Striker's previous radio hit, The Lone Ranger, and was intended to be a modern-day relative of the Lone Ranger.

He drove a 1937 Lincoln Zephyr in the "serial" motion pictures
