Because if not then I believe it's pretty broken, as it essentially a fee weapon that ignores physical resistance and immunity...
Does Martial Arts' bonus count as physical?
MA counts as neither Physical or Magical, making it a Colour Out of Space annihilator.
It took one more big box expansion to discover this, but the Color Out of Space's real weakness is kung fu.
It's a good skill, but its usefulness depends a lot on what monsters you have on the board and how many good weapons your group has. So I'd say it's pretty balanced on the whole, but clearly one of the better skills.
Thread hijack: The two best skill skills in my opinion are (don't know their names, sorry) the "Exhaust to get a success on a horror check" and "Exhaust instead of spending a clue token". Ah, that second one's Mythos Lore, I remember now.

Actually, all the exhaust-for-success skills are awesome, IMO. Jacking up your fight and still passing the horror check is great. Being able to take down monsters slightly stronger than you can handle is also great. Free-sneaking monsters to get to that crucial gate is very great!
Knowing 100% that you can pass that spell... is...
well it's pretty good, anyway. Shut up!
