The evil mastermindand master of disguiseFu Manchu has long threatened to take over the world. In the past century, his dastardly plans have driven serialized novels, comic books, films, and TV. Yet this sinister Oriental character represents more than an invincible criminal in pop culture; Fu Manchu became the embodiment of the Yellow Peril.Serial Fu Manchu provides a savvy cultural, historical, and mediabased analysis that shows how Fu Manchus irrepressibility gives shape toand reinforcesthe persistent Yellow Peril myth.

She pays particular attention to the figures literary foundations, the impact of media changes on his dissemination, and his legacy.In the series Asian American History and Culture, edited by Sucheng Chan, David PalumboLiu, Michael Omi, K. Scott Wong, and Linda Trinh V
