![]() ![]() One of Shotaro’s earlier and longest-running manga was Cyborg 009, which told the story of an international group of cyborg spies who turned against their criminal masters to fight the forces of evil. Simply put, without Shotaro Ishinomori, there would be no Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. A former protégé of the legendary Osama Tetsuka, Shotaro was the creator of such seminal shows as Kamen Rider and Super Sentai, which popularised the entire concept of the transforming (or henshin) superhero television series in Japan. The name Shotaro Ishinomori may not sound too familiar, but his work almost certainly will be, particularly if you have an interest in manga and anime.
