Description
English: Samson the Strong Man, a Willis Thorndike comic strip about the adventures of a man with super-strength, was published from February 10 to June 23 1905.

Here, Samson pays a Japanese-American man for martial arts lessons, and accidentally throws him into the shop of a Russian-American tailor; the tailor and the martial instructor then fight, re-enacting the Russo-Japanese War.
