In the late 1960s, he published comic ssuch as 'Unbeatable Golden Dagger', 'Black and White Little Demon', 'Little Drunken God' and 'Little Bar Girl'. In 1972 he created his most popular comic, the kung fu manga 'Lee Siu-lung' ('Bruce Lee'), starring the famous Chinese kung fu fighter. Seung-gun Siu-bo soon built a manga empire that rivalled that of Wong Yuk-long, also publishing the penny papers Hei Bo and Ching Bo. In the 1980s Seung-gun even worked briefly for Wong's Jademan Comics, but in 1986 he founded his own Kwong's Publishing, which continued to publish 'Lee Siu-lung' and other kung fu manga.
