These are the actual palms in JY novels, or "real" 18 Dragon Palms ?

I recognize some of the stances described in the book, but most of them were not named I had thought.

[Ian Liew]

I thought they all had the word "dragon" in them, but the only set I read were the ones in the Jademan Drunken Fist comics..

Fei Long Zai Tian, Shen Long Bai Wei and Jian Long Zai Tian are the only ones I recognise from the comics - the other palms from the comics e.g. 青龙出洞, 黑龙偷心, 双龙出海, were obviously made up by Tony Wong (or rather borrowed from other sources). Kang Long You Hui and Shen Long Bai Wei are the most famous in the novel, iirc.

Off the top of my head, I only remember 1,2,10,11,12 being mentioned.

I thought they all had the word "dragon" in them, but the only set I read were the ones in the Jademan Drunken Fist comics..

The thing they all have in common is that they are all expressions from the I Ching - the Book of Changes.
