It's basically Astro Bay, but with more ass kicking.

I highly recommend the anime. It's only 13 episodes (and a 4 episode OVA spin-off that was packaged with it in the US). It even has a decent English dub. The original manga is also available on Comixology (along with Kamen Rider, Cyborg 009, Inazuman, and Skullman).

Just keep away from the 70's toku. It has an official US release, but the subbing is so bad it makes bootleg subs look good and the DVDs are insanely overpriced.

That is really an over simplification of both art style and character type. However it not wrong either.

Yes the Anime was an old late 90s early 2000s Bandai Anime and was what brought me back into toku. Mostly because I looked into Shotaro Ishinomori and found out he was the father of both Kamen Rider And Sentai. also I loved 009 that helped. As for the Comixology books get them they are awesome though the skull man is only the old one shot the second series that finishes the story was translated by Tokyo Pop (RIP) and hard to find the same goes with Kikaider Code 02 by Meimu
