Zorro

Back in the 90’s when I was seriously getting into writing, I also rediscovered a childhood favorite. That was the show, Zorro, and it was on the Disney Channel at the time. Zorro was the brainchild of a pulp magazine writer named Johnston McCulley back in 1919 when he published “The Curse of Capistrano.” The next year it was made into a silent movie with Douglas Fairbanks in the title role. McCulley cranked out many more Zorro stories until his death. There were more movies (like the stellar Tyrone Power film of the 1940’s) and numerous serials as well.
