"Urutoraman"


Yesterday, I borrowed a book about "Urutoraman" from a near library. This is the first cover of it.

"Urutoraman" is a TV drama's character. It was broadcasted in the 1960s and several series that similar characters appeared in these programs followed.

Most of people in Japan know it as most American know "Superman".

"Urutoraman" came to the earth in an accident, then he stayed in the earth to fight against monsters that invade the earth.

You can learn more, here (in Spanish).

FYI, in English, he's known as Ultraman. I know of him, but I've never seen any of his stories. I'm sure that a quick trip to YouTube can rectify that, though.
