Where it came from
The Deadly Hands of Kung Fu was launched by Marvel Comics in 1974 as a black-and-white magazine, capitalizing on the intense public interest in martial arts cinema during the 1970s. As part of Marvel’s Curtis Magazines line, this publication allowed for more mature storytelling and artistic freedom than the standard comic book format of the era, moving away from the Comics Code Authority restrictions.
Issue 20, published in 1976, serves as a quintessential example of the series' blend of pulp adventure and martial arts tropes. The magazine featured serialized stories starring characters such as Shang-Chi and the Sons of the Tiger. The cover art and interior illustrations were created by various artists who aimed to evoke the gritty aesthetic of contemporary kung fu films, helping the title become a cult staple of the Bronze Age of comics.
