Love Zorro....not sure of the simliarities between him and Indy other than the great action and he wears a hat!
I always thought Zorro inspired Batman...the later comics gvie a nod to this (Dark Knight Return and Year One in particluar)
I never read any of the old pulps but I loved the old style action and stunts as well as the character....this probably influenced my love for Batman and Indy etc etc....
I guess my tastes evolved on a similar chronological line to the actual pulps and movies etc.
I have fond memories of watching old B&W Zorro movies and TV series as a Kid at my grandmothers.
I had a mask and sword....the sword had chalk at the end and I got in trouble for all the Z's on the walls!
I watched a lot of old movies and Tv shows in the 80's as I spent a lot of time at my grandparents house...people are surprised at how I have an affection and know about old films and songs that most people my age don't.
Back on track....Zorro was a bit of a trail blazer for me and probably a lot of others.
Other than Batman, I always found Tony Stark reminded me of a ultra modern Zorro. Mabe it's just the moustache and millionaire lifestyle?
I liked the recent film although didn't see the sequel.
I actually believe Zorro is a great character Hollywood should revisit instead of some of the other rebooted dross they are recently churning out.
