A thrill-a minute ride set in the days of Spanish colonialism in
California, where thugs and greedy tyrants try to wrest every penny
from peasants . . . and the one hero who defends the common man is
the mysterious masked stranger who calls himself Zorro--The Fox The
first Zorro story appeared as a 5-part serial in All-Story Weekly,
a famous American pulp fiction magazine, starting in the August 9,
1919 issue. In a case of fortunate timing, Douglas Fairbanks, the
silent movie star, was in the process of trying to change his image
at the time, and he chose Zorro as his next starring role. In 1920,
when the romantic swashbuckler debuted, it set movie box office
records. Riot police had to disperse the huge crowds that showed up
at the New York opening. Zorro entered the public consciousness and
is now a part of popular culture, the same as such heroes as
Superman, Tarzan, and The Lone Ranger. The rest is history.
