Yesterday marked the 75th birthday of the late Kamen Rider creator Shotaro Ishinomori! Ishinomori worked on a number of titles, ranging from Cyborg 009 to the likes of Zelda! Sure we know him from his work on the Rider genre of Tokusatsu, but did you also know he held a Guinness World Record? More from Comics Alliance:
After working with Tezuka, Ishinomori branched out on his own to create a body of work that would eventually be given the Guinness World Record for the most pages published by a single author, clocking in at a pretty staggering 128,000 pages
Not too shabby for Osamu Tezuka’s former assistant!
