The Deadly Hands of Kung Fu #17

Neal Adams delivers a striking cover for this October 1975 issue of The Deadly Hands of Kung Fu, depicting a shirtless martial artist — clearly rendered as Bruce Lee — landing a powerful kick against a suited opponent while surrounded by a crowd of onlookers and combatants mid-brawl. The cover teases "In Search of Bruce Lee" alongside a special interview with Robert Clouse, director of Enter the Dragon, making this a particularly rich package for fans of both martial arts comics and cinema. Inside, writer Doug Moench and artist Rudy Nebres bring their talents to "The Key to the Dragon's Heart," rounding out an issue that captures the full spirit of the kung fu craze at its mid-'70s peak.
