R to L (Japanese Style). Since Kid Muscle's not a bad enough dude to save his friend Meat, the Army of Idols--a gang of former villains--has vowed to fight the evil Demon Seeds on their own evil turf. That's all well and good when the Idols in question are Mars, the Fire Challenge phenom, or Kevin Mask, champion of the Superhuman Olympics. But can Barrierfreeman, the half-young, half-old wrestler who spends more time groping girls than grappling opponents, really hold his own in battle? Especially when his dirty-old-man half insists on doing most of the fighting? The Muscle League finds out the hard way when Barrierfreeman faces the Tattooman at historic Goryôkaku Fortress. In one corner: a wall of tattooed muscle with a bag of ingenious Edo-themed tricks--and a giant gun in his arm if the subtle approach doesn't work. In the other corner: 90 pounds of fury in an adult diaper. Meat's chances don't look good. Heck, even Kid Muscle beat Barrierfreeman... What do you do when a team of evil superpowered wrestlers from another planet threatens the health and safety of the Earth? Organize a team of GOOD superpowered wrestlers, of course! Kid Muscle, the son of legendary wrestler King Muscle, rockets to Earth and finds an evil wrestling gang called the DMP tearing the place apart. The punks on the DMP are the weirdest, nastiest, most outlandishly powerful musclebound freaks the galaxy has ever known. Kid Muscle's only hope: form a team that's even wilder. Lazy and cowardly, the Kid sure doesn't look like the universe's last great hope, but when something upsets him -like, say, EVIL - he busts out in muscles just like his old man! The only possible result is earthshaking, bodyslamming, ultimate-powered action that sends our entire planet sailing over the top rope!

About the Author
Yudetamago is the pen name of artists Yoshinori Nakai and Takashi Shimada, who created the original hit KINNIKUMAN (MUSCLE MAN). KINNIKUMAN, which debuted in 1979, quickly grew into a massive slapstick wrestling epic and one of the most popular features in Japan's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine. ULTIMATE MUSCLE (known in Japan as KINNIKUMAN II SEI) is Yudetamago's most recent creation.
