Master of Kung Fu #20

In "Weapon of the Soul," Shang-Chi faces a deadly new threat when small-time criminal Demmy Marston hires Korain the samurai, a former ally of Fu Manchu, to capture him. The battle tests Shang-Chi’s skills and resolve as Korain’s body collapses under the strain of Fu Manchu’s elixir, and tragedy strikes when Marston’s girlfriend Diana is fatally wounded by Korain’s blade. Written by Gerry Conway and Doug Moench, with dynamic art by Paul Gulacy and inks by Al Milgrom, this 1974 issue delivers intense martial arts action and emotional weight, all framed by a striking cover by Gil Kane and John Romita, with inks by Frank Giacoia and John Romita.
