It's Season 2, and we are entering our Super Hero Era!
It starts with Zorro.
The 19th Century didn't just have rapidly changing food, fashion, fighting and all new ways to do crime - with the rise of the novel as popular entertainment, the crime fighters also changed. And so did the adventure story.
Sure Zorro may have been created in the 20th century, and inspired a rash of 20th century urban heros (Hullooooooooo! Batman), but he rides through Spansih California, and gives us Americans a better peek into the land we took over and made the place we would make... Movies ABOUT Zorro.
So saddle up and come along for the first in our Zorro series - and what will likely be a multi-return visit to the earliest American Super Heroes - in their Cowboy Era.
Vamonos Tornado!
