Tokyo Comic Con Exclusive HAF Redman Dark Gallery

Posted on February 26, 2019 at 3:16 pm by Den-O under Conventions, General Tokusatsu News, Other Conventions, TokuNation, TokuNation Site Updates, TokuNation Spotlights, Ultraman

“Reddo Fight!”

A while back we reviewed the very first figure in Evolution Toy’s Hero Action Figure (HAF) line. HAF Redman was unfortunately a mixed bag of QC issues. In the time since that figure’s release, the first and now second volume’s of the amazing REDMAN comic from Phase 6 and Night Shining. Series writer & artist Matthew Frank has crafted and truly compelling reinvention of the Redman story and breathed new life into an otherwise obscure cult character. Thanks to Matt we also got our hands on the subject of today’s gallery.

Today we’re looking at the incredibly limited Tokyo Comic Con exclusive REDMAN Volume 2 Dark Channel Edition! Not only does this version of volume 2 feature an exclusive limited cover differing from the retail version, but the Dark Channel also came packed with the the even more limited (just 300 pieces!) HAF Redman Dark Version! Thankfully, Matt was kind enough to pick up a Dark Channel Edition for us while he was set up at the Tokyo con, and was also generous enough to sign inside my personal copy of Japanese volume 2. Redman Dark himself is a familiar figure if you’ve handled the original, but there’s something to be said for a sleek black color scheme and some truly incredible glow-in-the-dark eyes.

Check out our full 40 image gallery and review after the jump by clicking “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post. We’ll be back in a couple days with a gallery of S.H. Figuarts Shinkocchou Seihou Kamen Rider W Heat/Metal!

Go Go Power Rangers Nominated for Best Comic of 2018 at IGN

Posted on December 13, 2018 at 9:12 am by TokuChris under Power Rangers

Many fans of Power Rangers will agree that possibly the lone shining light during the franchise’s 25th anniversary was the success and enjoyment of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and Go Go Power Rangers comic book series by BOOM! Studios. It would appear that the more mainstream media now agrees as the Go Go Power Rangers comic, written by Ryan Parrott and illustrated (for the majority of 2018) by Dan Mora is up for IGN’s Best Comic of 2018 Award.

The competition Go Go Power Rangers faces is pretty stiff however so it will need every Power Rangers fans’ help in getting itself across the finish line. What an opportunity to show the comic book world that the Power Rangers are more than just a licensed TV show comic but instead are an in-depth look at the lore and the universe that makes up our beloved franchise.

The nominees are as follows:

– Batman
– Black Hammer: Age of Doom
– Black Panther
– East of West
– Go Go Power Rangers
– Kill or Be Killed
– The Mighty Thor
– Monstress
– Saga
– Transformers: Lost Light

To check out the full list, descriptions, and to vote – click here. Good luck Power Rangers! Regardless of the outcome, you’re one of our favorite comic books of 2018 and beyond!

Posted on November 30, 2018 at 11:31 am by TokuChris under Power Rangers

The penultimate story of Tommy Oliver and possibly his final Power Rangers story releases next month in the graphic novel Soul of the Dragon by BOOM! Studios. Following Tommy Oliver in his final Power Rangers story, he searches valiantly for his missing son, JJ, who is working with Space Patrol Delta (SPD).

Written by Kyle Higgins – the famed Power Rangers scribe responsible for the immensely popular and successful Shattered Grid story in the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers comic – and illustrated by Giuseppe Cafaro – this is a book that any fan of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, or the work of Kyle Higgins, do NOT want to miss.

Check out a number of preview pages for the graphic novel by clicking the title of the story. Thanks to Comic Frontline for the initial release of these images.

Posted on October 27, 2018 at 2:45 pm by Den-O under General Tokusatsu News, Ultraman

Redman The Kaiju Hunter has been received as one of the best tokusatsu to comic adaptations out there. As you could probably tell from our very own review of it back in September, we 100% love it. It’s an enthralling read with gorgeous art that doesn’t get bogged down by dialogue to tell it’s story.

Now, ahead of it’s November 30th release date, Phase 6 Publishing has revealed series creator & artist Matthew Frank’s cover for the hotly anticipated Redman Volume 2! Determined not to give away what will definitely be an epic story, this cover features Redman surround by another horde of Kaiju. Kaiju that will most certainly join the next Red Fight.

Redman Volume 2 arrives November 30th at Tokyo Comic-Con with it’s general sale in bookstores Mid-December. It’s English language release will come after this. We’ll keep you up to date as we know more.

TokuNation Reviews Redman: The Kaiju Hunter Volume 1

Posted on September 13, 2018 at 9:50 am by Den-O under General Tokusatsu News, TokuNation, TokuNation Spotlights, Ultraman

“Reddo Fight!”

In 1972, Tsuburaya Productions commissioned a new spin-off from their popular Ultra Series. Curious, quirky, and quite violent, Redman joined the Nippon TV Ohayo! Kodomo variety show.  Serialized in 138 5-minute episodes, Redman faced off against countless Kaiju from across the various Ultra series which had aired by this time. Mercilessly, Redman would dispatch these Kaiju with little to no context outside of what magazine text stories and interviews could provide.

Flash forward to 2018, the superstar creative team of Matt Frank & Goncalo Lopes have resurrected this red warrior for a brand new series of Graphic Novels. The first of which, Redman: The Kaiju Hunter Volume 1, was recently released in July. Taking this obscure but classic character and helping to re-imagine his backstory as so much more than it was previously, Frank & Lopes have crafted a modern classic.

Here at TokuNation we were fortunate enough to be provided a promotional copy of Volume 1 for review.  Click “Discuss on the TokuNation Forums” at the bottom of this post and you can read our full review of Redman: The Kaiju Hunter! Let us know what you think of the series if you’ve had a chance to read it as well!
