Kid Impala is a fictional character, a comic book superhero published by DC Comics. He first appears in JLA: Classified #2 (February 2005), and was created by Grant Morrison and Ed McGuiness.

M'Bulaze (only name given) is a politically minded Zulu warrior from South Africa. He helped the Flash dismantle a bomb in South Africa. He later joined forces with other African heroes in the Crisis on Infinite Earths. He, along with other Global Guardians, were brainwashed by the Queen Bee of Bialya.

As part of a public perception ploy, the Guardians and the Justice League were tricked into battling a giant, alien robot. The robot was sent by the Queen Bee herself, who was not too concerned if it were to kill any of the Guardians. During the battle, Impala 'rescues' Power Girl, not understanding that she was one of the few most able to withstand the blows of the robot.

After coming to his senses and being rescued by Guardians and Justice League members, Impala takes some time off. While visiting Metropolis, he is attacked by the ancient being Fain Y'onia. The result of the battle is the loss of his powers. Before Fain is ultimately defeated, he causes the deaths of Impala's friends, Bushmaster and Thunderlord.
