Ōgon Bat (Japanese: 黄金 バット, Hepburn: Ōgon Batto, lit. "Golden Bat") is a Japanese superhero created by Takeo Nagamatsu in 1931. Ōgon Bat is considered to be the first Japanese superhero. Originally debuting in kamishibai (paper theater), Ogon Bat is considered a precursor to later superhero characters such as the Japanese Kamishibai character Prince of Gamma (debuted early 1930s) and the American comic book characters Superman (debuted 1938) and Batman (debuted 1939).Synopsis
Professor Yamatone and his family visit present day Egypt, and discover an ancient tomb that apparently belonged to a "god of justice, (and) protector of the weak". When the Professor was later taken captive by "Gorgo", agent of the evil Dr. Erich Nazō (ナゾー) (also known as Dr Zero), the Professor's daughter Mari, pleaded for "the god of justice" to save her father. As she began to cry, her tears fell into the ancient tomb, reviving Ogon Bat, who came to her help. From then on, the little girl would always call on the Ogon Bat to fight against evil - usually in the form of Doctor Zero.
