Rider System - A Kamen Rider Zine

“If you have the motivation, I don't think anything in this world is impossible. First, you have to start moving. If you move, something will start.”

 - Kamen Rider Diend

Rider System is a collaborative community zine, bringing together 25 illustrators and 9 writers to express a shared love of Kamen Rider. 

Originally released in 1971, Kamen Rider has evolved over its 54 years of life, creating new Riders to steward every generation. With every page, every line, and every word, this zine is dedicated to those heroes. Rider System is an ode to the heroes who are strong enough to be kind, the heroes who protect human life above all else, the heroes who smile beneath their masks, and the heroes who find hope even in despair. 

While those who have contributed to the zine may not carry belts or transformation trinkets, each and every work we have made expresses our desires to create and to bring about a better world with our own hands. 

Please enjoy our creations and our dreams, all our myriad views and heroes, and our love for Kamen Rider.
