Issue #24, written by guest writer Dan Abnett, and illustrated by guest artist Ian Churchhill, is an improvement from the narrative from #23 for sure, or I'm just still really sour about issue #23.

The Green Hornet, a Marvel super hero film that has not been recognize as much as Iron Man and Spider-Man. This movie can also be really controversial base on the casts, story plots, and its political theme that has embedded in content.
