Here is the latest issue of Xenorama, Journal of Heroes and Monsters. It is about the genre called "kyodai" heroes, or giant heroes fighting giant monsters. We cover Spectreman, Mirrorman, Zone Fighter and more! It is all in full color, and you can order it through the link to the right! There are episode guides and just a look at the various cool shows we were denied over here in the States. It would have been a much more fun childhood seeing a few more shows like this over here. Or any, if you lived in Colorado.
These shows are far more mature than most US kid fare. Mirrorman is a great example, as it has a dark nature. It was far closed to Ultra Seven than Ultraman. Perhaps it would have made seeing Ultraman less special, but not to me, I am sure of that!
