Publisher profile coming soon
The direct market matures. Dark Knight Returns, Watchmen redefine the medium. Speculator boom begins.
High print runs mean condition is the key differentiator. 9.8 census numbers matter more than total prints.
The recovery of third-party encapsulation and grading expenditures when an asset is acquired at a discount below the physical cost of replacement grading fees, shipping, and insurance.
Another symbolic splash page. 1936 [according to sequence 2, below]: Despite the agreed upon compromise, Ikano works for Britt I as a manservant, much to the latter's displeasure. Daniel Reid "retires" and makes his son the Publisher of the Sentinel. One of his first decisions is to set up a sting operation against the protection racket, by having two reporters, under phony names, open a newsstand, and they are indeed soon approached. That very night, Britt and Ikano discuss the special car Kato has designed and built secretly in a warehouse near, but seemingly separate from, their townhouse.

2023: Paul Reid wants to know how Britt I dealt with having to kill a man early in his Green Hornet career (as detailed in the previous issue), but the man's journals hold no discussion of the aftermath. However, Ikano Kato's do. 1936: Britt's college roommate, Charles Binford, has written to the Daily Sentinel, asking for an investigation into strange happenings near his home in the Canadian hinterlands. Britt takes advantage of the opportunity to get away from the pressures of the paper, the city, and his double life, with Kato deciding to go along to keep an eye on his troubled friend. However, on the first morning, Nazi soldiers break into the cabin and capture the three men, marching them to a nearby location where they are to be slave labor, building a secret airstrip. During the following night, they are freed from their captivity by shape-shifting Native Americans, the very mystery Binford wanted investigated. In the natives' cave, they inform Britt that they know he is like them, a warrior "who wears another shape." They and the Green Hornet rout the Germans and put an end to the threat of the airstrip.
