JUNE 8 - 2013

CHILLICOTHE, Ill.--The creator of Zorro was honored on Saturday by the Chillicothe Historical Society.

Johnston McCulley who graduated from Chillicothe high school in 1901, was the creator of Zorro.

Saturday was the grand opening of an exhibit dedicated to everything this hometown hero accomplished.

Many of the items and memorabilia are duplicates of Zorro specialist and artist, Peter Poplaski's personal collection.

Poplaski says McCulley created the 'original’ super hero. He said, "All the kids that went to Zorro in the 20's... In the 30's they were creating their comic book characters. So they invented Superman based on Zorro and Douglas Fairbanks. Batman was an upgrade of Zorro from California in the old days to modern day New York to now Gotham City and it continues to this day."

Poplaski says he was happy to share his memorabilia with the historical society because the Zorro exhibit is a great hook for Chillicothe.
