Master of Kung Fu #74

This March 1979 issue throws Shang-Chi and Shockwave straight into the thick of it, as the cover — penciled by Mike Zeck and inked by Terry Austin — captures the two fighters surrounded and pressing hard against a swarm of bizarre, mechanized minions belonging to the villain Mordillo. The dynamic composition puts Shang-Chi in his red uniform at center, fists flying alongside the yellow-suited Shockwave, while the robotic hordes close in from every angle with their odd, insectoid machinery. With the bold banner "Brynocki Triumphant!" teasing what's at stake, this is a vivid snapshot of the globe-trotting, kung fu action that made Master of Kung Fu one of Marvel's most distinctive titles of the era.
