Karaté Kid

In the late 1970s, Editions Héritage brought the martial arts craze to Canadian newsstands with Karaté Kid (1977–1978), an 11-issue series starring the DC Comics hero. Most frequently illustrated by the dynamic Mike Grell, the title pitted the blind, superhumanly skilled fighter against a rogue's gallery of ninjas and assassins. The series stands as a distinctive, short-lived chapter in the Bronze Age, showcasing Grell's distinctive linework and a hero who relied on discipline over brute force.
