In 1983, Buronson and Tetsuo Hara took the ninja manga tradition of an elite hero, brought it together with elements of the Bruce Lee kung fu and super powered psychics phenomenons, set in a Mad Max wasteland, and unleashed the seminal martial arts adventure Fist of the North Star. The 30th anniversary has been marked with an "Extreme Edition" collection of the manga, featuring a new chapter and an impressive Sega Lucky Kuji prize lottery.
