Appears in Super Mario Kodansha manga (Super Mario Kart 3) (1993)

Cannon Boy z is the secret identity Toad takes in Super Mario Kart 3 of the Super Mario Kodansha manga as Cannon Ball Z's disguise during the Super Mario Cart Rally. Cannon Boy z's costume is the same as Cannon Ball Z, differing only in the writings: on the helmet is written "Cannon Boy", while a lowercase cursive "Z" is printed on his chest. Compared to his chief, he only properly appears in the last chapter.

As soon as the Mushroom King realizes Princess Peach has snuck her way into the race, him and Toad come up with these superhero personas and enter the race disguised as Mototin and Henshū on a kart that is also disguised depending on which character they are playing.

After poisoning Luigi and forcing the Mario Team to go back, Bowser takes the lead, but Cannon Ball Z and Cannon Boy z, dropping their Mototin and Henshū disguises, ram their kart into his, blowing them up. Knocked out by the explosion, the two masked pilots' identities are revealed and Bowser decides to carry his "future fater-in-law" on his back to the finish line while Dr. Mario Nakamatsu (previously captured by the Koopa king) carries Toad.
