New National Kid

A stylish French homage to classic manga and tokusatsu heroes, New National Kid (2014–present) is a single-issue revival from Le Lézard Noir that reimagines the iconic 1960s Japanese superhero for a modern audience. While the series has only one issue to date, it captures the retro-futuristic spirit of its source material with bold, dynamic art and a sense of nostalgic adventure. The project is most closely associated with its creators, who blend vintage design with contemporary comic sensibilities. Its significance lies in bridging Franco-Belgian and Japanese pop culture traditions, offering a unique, cross-cultural take on a beloved character.
