   Back Design:  All the backs show what seems to be a comic book hero in the middle of the menko.  In the upper left corner are military themed words.  A 1/3 of the way up the menko on the right is a Gu-Choki-Pa mark with a 9 or 11 digit Fighting Number along the bottom.  Menko backs are printed in a blue-green ink.
