Shogun Warriors (Comic Book) | comment |
Shogun Warriors is a 1978 comic book series from Marvel Comics, written by Doug Moench and illustrated by Herb Trimpe.Although it's set in the shared Marvel Universe, the three Shogun Warriors were licensed from the eponymous Mattel toyline (and the three toys were, in turn, based on three unrelated anime series by Toei Animation, Leiji Matsumoto and Tohokushinsha). The Marvel series only uses the names and likenesses of the toys themselves, with no reference to any pre-existing plots or settings.The Shogun Warriors - Raydeen, Combatra and Dangard Ace - are giant mecha, created centuries ago by the alien Followers of Light. The Followers have kept watch over Earth for millennia, guarding against the eventual return of Maur-Kon, a servant of darkness who fought against them in the ancient Chaos Wars.In modern times, the eruption of a long-dormant volcano finally frees Maur-Kon, who immediately begins to create new monsters and plot world domination.To oppose his evil, the Followers of Light have already selected three normal humans who - based on their observations - should become the best possible pilots for the Shogun Warriors.Dangard Ace's pilot, Ilongo Savage, is an oceanographer working in Madagascar. Combatra's pilot Genji Odashu is a Japanese test pilot. Raydeen's pilot Richard Carson is an American stuntman. Between them, they must defeat Maur-Kon's creations and save the world.However, as pilots haven't been needed for centuries, those assessments were via entirely secret observations. Until they were unexpectedly teleported to the Followers' mountain sanctuary, Odashu, Carson and Savage knew nothing about Maur-Kon, the Followers of Light or the Shogun Warriors.Now they have twenty minutes to learn some basic piloting skills before facing their first Kaiju. Perhaps it will get easier from there.The first issue was released November 28 1978. The series ended with issue #20, released June 3, 1980.After the series ended, so did Marvel's licensing deal for the Shogun Warriors themselves. However, Moench wrote an epilogue in Fantastic Four a few months later, revisiting the three pilots and explaining the final fate of the robots. | |

That said, his first treacherous attempt at Ritual Magic accidentally creates a Magitek monster from the mech he's trying to melt down and sacrifice. | |

Creating Life Is Unforeseen | |
Shogun Warriors (Comic Book) / int_1ae4bc74 | comment |
Creating Life Is Unforeseen: Maur-Kon's Evil Luddite minion Lieutenant Magar is furious to see his lord relying on science rather than pure magic, so decides to steal the Mech-Monster and destroy it by Ritual Magic, offering it back to the Earth via a magical Lava Pit. Or at least that's the plan until he's interrupted, leading to an Imperfect Ritual and the Mech-Monster becoming a living Magitek creation. | |

Tampering with Food and Drink | |
Shogun Warriors (Comic Book) / int_2317bc85 | comment |
Tampering with Food and Drink: Ilongo and Genji are both subtly poisoned by the Yakuza agent who's impersonating Richard Carson. The nerve agent in their meal isn’t enough to sicken them, as that might give him away, but it’s intended to slow them down if they're trying to pilot their Warriors and fight him. | |

Shogun Warriors (Comic Book) / int_32da91b8 | comment |
Out of Focus: Dr. Tambura is the main spokesperson for the four Followers, so we see very little of Charn, and even less of Basque and Sherna. Following the same logic, he ends up in the role of Almost Dead Guy, whereas the other three are Killed Offscreen. Combatra is the only one of the three Shogun Warriors to take part in the final storyline, as all of the pilots travel to Manhattan in a single robot. | |

Shogun Warriors (Comic Book) / int_34bd7be2 | comment |
Super Drowning Skills: Not actually drowning, but alien robot Megatron doesn't fly and is far too heavy to swim or float. Dangard Ace and Raydeen can't directly beat it, but when it's standing atop a huge spaceship hovering over the ocean, they end the brawl with a Kneel, Push, Trip and send it over the side. It sinks like a stone and the next issue confirms it's destroyed. | |

Maker of Monsters: Doctor Demonicus has created some living Kaiju alongside his Humongous Mecha.

Shogun Warriors (Comic Book) / int_7e6c0522 | comment |
Off with His Head!: Raydeen ends the first battle with Rok-Korr by decapitating him with the Breaker Blade, revealing that his neck is mechanical, not flesh. Unfortunately, he then sheds his armor and robotic elements, reforming and rising up again in an even larger One-Winged Angel form. | |

Dishing Out Dirt: Rok-Korr's second form has a Breath Weapon that sends a barrage of rocks against his target. One of his third forms is an Elemental Embodiment earth giant with a wider range of earth powers (including a rock-filled Hand Blast, triggering avalanches and absorbing rock and earth to grow even larger). | |

Magitek: Maur-Kon is very enthusiastic about this approach, using it for Rok-Korr. His Evil Luddite subordinate Lt. Maran thinks it's heretical and they should just stick to purely magical horrors, but accidentally creates a magitek Mech-Monster when his sabotage of a purely robotic monster goes very wrong. | |

Animated Armor: A variation. The immense alien robot Gigantauron is piloted by the Primal One's spirit (or perhaps an energy form, it's never entirely clear what he is), not by any physical crew. From what Cymell says before it launches to attack New York, it would normally require an actual physical pilot. | |

No Endor Holocaust: Downplayed. Gigantauron is huge. Really huge. If it had proper ankles, the tallest buildings in Manhattan would just about reach them. It's big enough that when it topples into the harbor, it's still almost entirely above the waterline while lying prone. And yet the only impact of that collapse is a big wave lifting boats at the docks. When it's later lifted out by tractor beam, there seems to be no impact at all. | |

Shogun Warriors (Comic Book) / int_e6f18344 | comment |
Humongous Mecha: The titular Shogun Warriors. Some opponents, such as Cerberus, may also count, although it's rarely clear which ones are robots and which are piloted. The Nightwind's alien mecha Gigantauron is much, much bigger than the Shogun Warriors. No building in Manhattan is tall enough to reach its knees. | |

Great Bow | |
Shogun Warriors (Comic Book) / int_e7a3ace2 | comment |
Great Bow: Raydeen has a massive bow integrated as an Arm Cannon, although it doesn't look that big compared to Raydeen itself. It's normally folded away and can only be deployed when the arm is locked into position. | |

No Seat Belts | |
Shogun Warriors (Comic Book) / int_ede841fd | comment |
No Seat Belts: The pilots aren't strapped into their command chairs and occasionally go flying across the room when their robot takes a hit. Genji seems to get the worst of this - she's left unconscious on the floor after Combatra ends up Jumping on a Grenade, then gets catapulted through the windscreen when Delta-V One crashes. | |

The Starscream | |
Shogun Warriors (Comic Book) / int_eedee4d | comment |
The Starscream: Lieutenant Magar is a principled version. He's a loyal believer in the cause, but he's also an Evil Luddite and Maur-Kon's belief in science and Magitek offends him. Magar sincerely believes that evil magic should be their only weapon. That said, his first treacherous attempt at Ritual Magic accidentally creates a Magitek monster from the mech he's trying to melt down and sacrifice. His second attempt, which involves sacrificing Genji in a Summoning Ritual, calls up an animated lake of magma. When Genji escapes it seeks the nearest living sacrifice and turns on Magar instead - and when he flees it cascades through Maur-Kon's lair, destroying the entire island. | |

Great Offscreen War | |
Shogun Warriors (Comic Book) / int_f722f635 | comment |
Great Offscreen War: The Great Chaos Wars, in which the Followers of Light opposed Maur-Kon's ancestors. They lasted eons, we see one panel of spaceships in battle, and at the end of it Maur-Kon and his followers were entombed on earth. And that's all the detail we ever get. | |

One-Winged Angel | |
Shogun Warriors (Comic Book) / int_fc33ff16 | comment |
One-Winged Angel: Once Rok-Korr's tentacled cyborg form is defeated, his body melts and then reforms into a much larger humanoid form without the mechanical elements. For his third and final form, he divides into three different Elemental Embodiments - earth, fire and water. | |

Finger Firearms | |
Shogun Warriors (Comic Book) / int_ffba487b | comment |
Finger Firearms: Combatra fires bullet-missiles from its fingertips. Raydeen uses this less often, but can apparently do the same. As well as its individual fingertip blasters, when the 'alien force' mecha Megatron puts both hands together, palm to palm, the forefingers merge into a powerful gun which seems to have a longer range. | |
