The Yellow Peril-A Host of Characters

Once again Dr. Fu-Manchu, the 'Yellow Peril' is up to his diabolical ways. The Return of Dr. Fu-Manchu is the second in the Sax Rohmer Dr. Fu-Manchu series. The series gives me fodder for my own pulp games and scenarios.

"Imagine a person tall, lean, and feline, high shouldered, with a brow like Shakespeare and a face like Satan, a close-shaven skull, and long magnetic eyes of the true cat green. Invest him with all the cruel cunning of an entire Eastern race accumulated in one giant intellect, with all the resources of science, past and present, and you have a mental picture of Dr. Fu-Manchu, the 'Yellow Peril' incarnate in one man."

"If that Satanic genius were not indeed destroyed, then the peace of the world, may be threatened anew at any moment!"
