The Complete Series of Johnston McCulley Zorro Stories To Be Released
Zorro's Bold Venture!
Zorro rides again in new editions
from Bold Venture Press
In cooperation with Zorro Productions, Bold Venture Press will release
the complete adventures of Zorro, the iconic hero created by Johnston
McCulley. Some of these stories have remained out of print since their
initial appearance.
The masked swordsman debuted in The Curse of Capistrano, a five-part
novel published in All-Story Weekly. From 1919 until 1959, McCulley's
sixty Zorro short stories and novels were featured prominently in pulp
magazines of the day.
Bold Venture will publish the complete Zorro series in six volumes in 2016.

M7 Con 2015 Alex Kruz Appears As Zorro
The M7 Con western convention held October 23-25 in Los Angeles, California featured a segment on the history of Zorro in film and television. The presentation focused on the great Zorro actors including Douglas Fairbanks, Tyrone Power, Guy Williams, and Duncan Regehr. Though other Zorro actors and their productions were also discussed.
Near the end of the program the audience was treated to a special performance as Maestro Ramon Martinez and actor Alex Kruz gave a live demonstration of the Spanish style of fencing known as La Verdadera Destreza. The two dueled as Zorro and the Comandante much to the delight of the crowd. Those in attendance were thrilled to learn that Señor Martinez, the world's foremost expert on Destreza, and his fencing student Alex Kruz, a real life Zorro-like humanitarian, would be giving a full presentation and demonstration later that day.
For more than three centuries Destreza was the most feared fencing style in the world and as a Spaniard Zorro would have been well versed in this form of sword fighting. Unlike fencing today, which is linear, Destreza is rooted in geometry and employs the use of the circle to solve and overcome the efforts of opponents.
Circling his adversary Alex expertly displays how Zorro, the world's greatest fictional swashbuckler, employs Destreza to defeat his foe in a swordfight.
Here Zorro (Alex Kruz) uses his cape to cover his opponent thus blocking his ability to see and making him vulnerable to an attack.
Alex Kruz practices before the M7 Con western convention begins.
It was an honor to have Maestro Ramon Martinez and Zorro Alex Kruz participate in The history of Zorro presentation. Stay tuned... perhaps one day Alex will don the mask and cape in a television series or movie.

From Out Of The Night A Hero Must Rise - Zorro
When daggers are pointed at innocent hearts
And muskets are ready to fire
When tyrants ride high and govern with fear
As the forces of evil conspire
Then from out of the night a hero must rise
With courage that even a mask won't disguise
They turn to . . . the man called Zorro
One who's larger than life and defender of all
Is this man who the people acclaim
He's the one who strikes back for the poor and oppressed
A hero . . . whose name is Zorro
His name is Zorro
And muskets are ready to fire
When tyrants ride high and govern with fear
As the forces of evil conspire
Then from out of the night a hero must rise
With courage that even a mask won't disguise
They turn to . . . the man called Zorro
One who's larger than life and defender of all
Is this man who the people acclaim
He's the one who strikes back for the poor and oppressed
A hero . . . whose name is Zorro
His name is Zorro
Zorro starring Duncan Regehr, Henry Darrow, Patrice Martinez, John Hertzler, Michael Tylo, James Victor and Juan Diego Botto. Now available on DVD.

Zorro In Stereo - Listen up!
Zorro comes to life in full-cinematic surround sound in three full-cast audio drama presentations. For those who don't know what a full-cast audio drama is it's like an audiobook (book on tape/CD). You might call it audio theater, a radio play, a radio drama, or a movie for your mind. Each character is voiced or played by a separate actor. The performance is delivered similar to that of a theater play or movie. Since their is no picture, you, the listener create the scenes in you mind. Sound effects and music enhance the story as it plays out in your imagination. The crunch of footsteps on gravel as Zorro sneaks into the restricted area of the cuartel, horses hooves thundering past as soldiers give pursuit, muskets booming as they're fired and the clash of steel as swords collide bring excitement and realism to the story in full stereo sound. So LISTEN UP and let your imagination transport you back in time as you follow the exploits of that swashbuckling hero called ZORRO.
