Dr Master Publications

Posted by Terry On August - 18 - 2007

I find it hard to believe that with all the interest in Manga/Manhua/Manhwa that Dr Master books are not in UK shops -unless someone knows different?

Chinese Hero by Wing Shing Ma is a classic by now,first seeing print in English in the Jademan comics of the 1980s,not that we ever saw the series completed!

I’m going to just run down some of the titles available or being published in 2008 by Dr Master.  Check out their site at
