Has Shang-Chi Met His Match With Sister Hammer?

Look inside 'Shang-Chi' #2 before its October 28 release!

The Master returned this week when writer Gene Luen Yang and artists Dike Ruan and Philip Tan's team-up, SHANG-CHI, hit comic shop shelves everywhere.

We discovered that an ancient and evil secret organization, The Five Weapons Society, has been in hiding since the death of their leader, Zheng Zhu.
