Kujou would normally be a middle school physical education instructor who would become quite a different person when wearing the mask of Maskman K. This show would have been quite like the late 1950s and early 1960s tokusatsu hero series rather than the henshin hero series as we know them today.
The design of the first Shocker cyborg monster, the Spider Man, was nearly identical to that actually used in Kamen Rider.
(Masked heroes were not new to tokusatsu; they date back as far as Moonlight Mask [1958].) The group, joined by Mainichi Housou and Toei staffers, came up with the key elements for the series-to-be: an SF drama for children.

 SENTAI 1975-1980
The first super sentai; further refines the fight-the-monster-in-two-sizes formula used in SPIDER-MAN; has the sentai battle robot (or robo).
The tokusatsu sentai; one of two created by the immortal Ishinomori Shoutarou; firmly establishes the genre.
Thank You for some of the sentai pictures.

 Hud's Blog-O-Rama: Damned Globalization!
I have some episodes of Toei's tokusatsu SPIDER-MAN series from 1978 (including the last one, Episode 41).
Plus, even under their colorful and "campy" look, some of these superhero shows were pretty dark and serious!
IMHO, 60s-80s Japanese superheroes (and some of today's superheroes) are very close, IMHO, to what American comic-book superheroes used to be like (or what they are)!
