WAY COOL poster, John!

Kind of like an Ultra Man kind of character?

DarvishJo · « **Reply #649 on:** May 26, 2019, 01:47:30 PM »

Well Jeff, they both defend the earth against alien invaders, but Infra-Man comes from the Shaw Brothers while Ultra Man is a Japanese cyborg. That little distinction would probably be lost on most of us.
