Howard the Duck #3

Howard the Duck lays waste to a pair of hapless thugs — one sent sprawling with a dropped revolver, another reeling in a white suit — while a stern, robed master watches imperiously from his throne in the background, all rendered with dynamic energy by cover penciler Rich Buckler and inker Steve Leialoha. The cover's tagline says it all: "Martial-Arts Mayhem as you've never seen it before — when Howard becomes Master of Quack Fu!" Steve Gerber's "Four Feathers of Death!" promises the sardonic humor and offbeat action that made this series such a singular corner of the 1976 Marvel Universe.
