History WebComic / RockManlyfist

Rock Manlyfist is a parodic martial arts comic written and drawn by Johan Wanloo. It's an AffectionateParody of all the 80's action tropes you can think of, [[Film/KungFury much like an other piece of Swedish Media]], only Rock Manlyfist did it first. The eponymous character is a {{Badass}} from the 80's who is awakened from his suspended animation by the US Government in order to combat North Koreans, Shaolin Satanists, Swedish Neo-Viking Terrorists, Laser Beavers, and more [[InstantAwesomeJustAddNinja Ninjas]] than you can throw a Shuriken at. How does he accomplish this? Well, Rock Manlyfist is a master of "Space Karate". An immensely powerful fighting style wich allows him to do literally anything as long as he screams "SPACE KARATEEEE!" at the top of his lungs while doing it. The catch? Well, [[ThePornomancer Rock needs to have sex every 24 hours]], or else his [[YourHeadAsplode head will explode.]] Bummer.

** It's sometimes implied that Space Karate is more of a metaphysical, divine power, like "the Force" in Franschise/StarWars, than it is a martial art.

* StoutStrenght: Rock has obvious love-handles sticking out over the side of his pants. Doesn't make him any less of a badass or less irresistible to the opposite sex, though.

* AlmightyJanitor: Agent Winterbottom used to be Rocks [[BashBrothers Bash Brother]] in their "ultra super secret black ops strikeforce" during the 80's, but nowadays he works as a White House janitor. He's also the man responsible for bringing Rock back from his meditation.

Originating as an English language WebComic (since taken down) back in 2010, new adventures with Rock Manlyfist can be read in the HermanHedning magazine every month ([[NoExportForYou if you're Swedish that is]].)

* FantasticFightingStyle: As said before, Space Karate allows Rock to do ANYTHING within and without the realm of the possible, if it can aid him in his current situation. For example, in addition to beating an army with his bare hands it can make him an expert at [[MundaneMadeAwesome operating a ball grill while drunk.]]
