Ultra-violent comix from Hong Kong

GAKK! My spleen!!

Brutally insane collection of ultra-violent hyper-gory comic book covers from Hong Kong from the late '60s to the present, from what I can surmise. The early ones are the best, if you dig the primitively surreal. Even Bruce Lee gets into the act. I don't know much about these comix, but apparently they're very popular. Found via the German blog The Crime in Your Coffee, who found it via another German blog, Scheinriese, who found it through a Chinese blog MegaroGolith2004 (with a sketchy but helpful translation from Google here). Whew!
