Kinnikuman debuted in Weekly Shonen Jump in the late 70s and would go on to become the 4th best selling series in Jump of all time. Created by a high school duo calling themselves 'Yudetamago' (boiled egg), Kinnukuman would go on to earn millions as it spawned an anime series, movies, toys, and those small rubber figurines that were popular in America during the eighties. The Kinnukuman manga lasted from the late 70 to the mid 80s. The plot began as pure gag-style with the main character Kinnukuman (Muscleman), a weak and clumsy super hero, constantly getting into wacky situations. As the series progressed, the story began changing from comedy to action as Kinnukuman battles stronger and stronger foes in the wrestling ring. The series continually introduced new Super Human characters, known as Chyo-jins, who would challenge Kinnikuman and his friends for various purposes. The series contained many Sagas and is made up of 36 books.
