Description

Here's "Kagaku ninja tai Gatchaman" from 1972-1974. Though I knew it first as "Battle of the Planets" from 1978 on... Jog your memory here --> [link]

Really loved this as a little kid. I even had two plastic Mark (Ken) boomerangs but my Mom threw them away because she thought they were too dangerous :(

I was lucky enough to see the original Japanese version 1st series (full uncut 105 episodes) on DVD in 2004. Got all the original Japanese character names down :). Sad ending! The Gatchaman OVA from late 1990s was only so-so I remember, though I enjoyed the new outfits.

Referenced using a Japanese Gatchaman episode compendium book (given by my bro [link] one Xmas, thanks :)) and a BotP Guidebook.

100% Photoshop (the original is 2x larger)

Nice. Only wish someone would draw the Imagi Studios styled Gatchaman.
