The Mark of Zorro

California in the 1820s. No one suspects seemingly timid Don Diego Vega is anything more than an aristocrat, who would rather read poetry than defend his honor, and grows faint at even the mention of bloodshed. However, when trouble arises, he becomes the original masked crime-fighter, defending down-trodden citizens from oppressive government elements and criminals, with his keen wit and swift blade. Join America’s first superhero in his original thrill-a-minute adventure, which launched a franchise. Originally entitled “The Curse of Capistrano” and written in 1919.
