Golden Bat: Japan's First Superhero

Basically Japan's first superhero who even predated Superman, the character might have played an influence on Japanese Hero media from manga, anime and live action. There's was a live action Golden Bat movie made in the 50's that not only predates the 60's movie starring Sonny China but the "first" Japanese superhero movie Super Giant aka. Starman sadly that film is lost media as no copies are known to exist.

Youtuber Kenny Lauderdale uploaded a video where he delves into the character's history and influence on Japanese popular culture.
