The Greatest Manga of All Time

These scans are from a manga called The Great Battle III, based on the 1993 Super Famicom beat ‘em up of the same name.

The game is part of The Compati Hero Series: a decades-long video game franchise with Gundam, Ultraman, and Kamen Rider! But it gets better…

Godzilla and his pals appear in two Compati Hero games: Battle Baseball and Battle Dodgeball. This manga opens with a game of baseball… featuring the Toho monsters!

As far as I know, this is the only manga adaption of a game from the Compati Hero series, and the only licensed manga to have characters from Godzilla, Gundam, Ultraman, and Kamen Rider!

(Another fun fact: The biggest character on the manga cover is Fighter Roar, an original character by Banpresto. His mask is the Banpresto logo!)

Super Sentai designs by Japanese artist, Katsushi Murakami. I think these are all from the book, “All About Katsushi Murakami: Super Hero Industrial Design Art Collection”.

A few more later on.
