Written by Bill Woolfolk and illustrated by Mike Sekowsky and Chic Stone, the story unfolds with a quiet intensity, tracing how a young man’s misplaced loyalty to Western friends led to a dangerous web of betrayal—unraveling a pirate plot that threatened his family’s legacy. The cover by Syd Shores and Vince Alascia captures the moment with classic flair, a 10-cent glimpse into a world where honor and identity are tested.
In "The Pirates of the China Sea!", Namor and Namora reunite with Sun Yat and his son Li Po, reflecting on a past mission that brought them together two years prior. When Li Po, torn between his Western friends and his heritage, unknowingly aided the pirate White Flower in sabotaging his father’s silk trade, the heroes stepped in to expose the betrayal. Now, as Sun Yat calls his son to meet them once more, it’s clear that Li Po has found his way back home—though the shadow of the past still lingers.
