[Commentary]
The special effects hero drama ``Moonlight Mask'', which was broadcast in 1958, achieved the highest audience rating of 68% and was widely supported as a national drama. Its popularity can be seen from the hit comic and movie adaptations, including by Jiro Kuwata.

In 1972, the TV anime ``The Lover of Justice: Moonlight Mask'' was broadcast. This work, which was based on a drama, also gained great popularity.

This work was serialized in "Shonen King'' at the same time as the anime broadcast, and is a comic version of the first part of the anime, "Satan's Claws''. The powerful touch of Minetake, who was in charge of the illustrations, gives the paper a sense of realism and the presence of the characters that is comparable to that seen on TV.
