sorry, I meant Tiger7. was one show a knock-off of the other? which was first? tigermask or Tiger7. tigermask was a human wrestler, is that correct. tiger7 was...robot? alien? mutant?
i dont think they had anything to do with one another i am pretty sure tiger mask came first, it was a cartoon/comic in the 60s. he was a human wrestler in a mask. tiger7 was a live action show... i think he was a human that transformed into the tiger headed, motorcycle riding hero
tiger mask (1969) was based on a manga of the same name. iron man tiger 7 is a show from 1973. ... he was a man with an artifical heart who could transform into a super warrior (tiger 7) with the help an ancient tiger faced necklace that his dad gave him.
super7 issue #9 has the real deal on tiger7. theres this like, ancient empire of monster jerks that wants to like, rule the world. earth's only hope is a dude with a lightning bolt body sock, some super-kick-ass glove, and a tiger head for a head. fuck yeah.
He answered a help wanted on craigslist, got the job "must save earth". His dad gave him the necklace to wear on casual Fridays. Steady gig, bennies. The mask seemed hot and sweaty to him at first, but hey - beats Walmart.
