The Green Hornet #26

Synopsis

A tong declares war in The City, killing several crime bosses within two hours. The assassin of one, Harry Block, is killed by Glory with the racketeer's own gun, while another, targeting a fellow called Fast Eddie Washington, is foiled by the Green Hornet and his associate. The lucky hood tells the masked men that he "recognized their colors" as Black Dragons, giving our heroes a lead. The proprietor of a tattoo parlor in the "Little China" district is "convinced" to talk about the tong, revealing that not only is the Hornet correct in surmising that he himself is on the list, but so are most top police officials. They quickly inform Diana, who spreads the word. However, she cannot reach Commissioner Hamilton, and dispatches a SWAT team, the base of which is not close to his home. The Black Beauty is coincidentally in the immediate vicinity, so the masked men head there themselves. They arrive to find a tong assassin has already shot Ham, and is turning on his family. The wife and two youngsters are saved and told to call an ambulance for the commissioner, but a tong dart has poisoned Kato! To be continued....
