About the series
During the mid-1970s, Marvel launched The Deadly Hands of Kung Fu, a magazine-sized showcase for the martial arts genre that ran for 33 issues. Under the steady hand of writers like Gerry Conway and Archie Goodwin, with dynamic art from Marshall Rogers and Rudy Nebres, the series pitted heroes such as Shang-Chi and Abe Brown against the shadowy Lotus Shinchuko and other threats. It stands as a key artifact of the kung fu craze, blending pulp action with Marvel's signature character-driven storytelling.
