About this deal

Marvel’s most mind-bending adventure begins as Moon Knight sleuths his way to the rotten core of New York’s most bizarre mysteries! many pages are images alone or with few words, which is an original and refreshing approach to a superhero comic, where people (and celebrated authors, like Morrison, Moore, Ellis) can't seem to shut up and understand less is more. He time travels to 2940 BC to rescue the Avengers, where he gains replacement weapons designed by fellow Avenger Hawkeye. I was very impressed by the psychedelic vistas of the dream world that Moon Knight found himself trapped in.

Afterward, the Avengers confront Moon Knight about his abuse of his team reservist status to confront Doctor Doom. This is a crazy premise that is also supposed to be the attraction to the series: a rich man in a white moon suit, supported by (? Khonshu then reveals he intends to use Marc as a host body, fully dominating his personality, but Marc refuses.Moon Knight: From The Dead feels like an invitation for new readers to discover one of Marvel’s most eccentric characters. This set me on a journey to find more of the comics, and ultimately ended up making this one of my favorite Marvel heroes of all time. Along with giving Moon Knight new Egyptian-themed weaponry, this mini-series reveals that Marc Spector's strength now increases in accordance to the phases of the moon. If that last statement seems confusing, you’d have to read the previous issues to know that hearts are a valuable commodity in the City of the Dead. There’s nothing wrong with an epilogue to address loose sends, but it feels like Pepose ran out of story to tell, so the last third of the comic is just filler.

With the help of Declan Shalveys amazing interiors, this became one of my favourite marvel books in the last year or so. He claims Khonshu wants him to be the "moon's knight", the left " Fist of Khonshu", redeeming his life of violence by now protecting and avenging the innocent. After deciding two candidates chosen by his "legacy quest" program are not suitable, Spector tries to recruit photojournalist Peter Parker, not realizing the young man is also Spider-Man. For reasons unexplained, Moon Knight abandons his belief that his role includes understanding his enemies and offering redemption and now acts with greate David Pepose’s take on the Fist of Khonshu, which seeks to merge the comic version of Moon Knight with the Disney Plus version of Moon Knight, brings Marc’s conflict with his brother to a close with a power upgrade (that we may or may not ever see again), an end to Jackal Knight’s revenge quest, and a generally happy ending.Peter Alraune, an archeologist whose team (which includes his daughter Marlene Alraune) recently unearthed a hidden tomb.

You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. So like the recent Hawkeye volume I read, this is yet another series that was praised to no end, and it lived beyond my expectations!

After capturing the werewolf, Moon Knight later frees him and together they halt the Committee's plans. An excellent volume with great, colorful visuals that has made me want to see more of this version of Moon Knight. Warren Girard Ellis (born 16 February 1968) is an English author of comics, novels, and television, who is well known for sociocultural commentary, both through his online presence and through his writing, which covers transhumanist themes (most notably nanotechnology , cryonics , mind transfer , and human enhancement ). But overall this was an awesome read, and I think Moon Knight will be a character I will be reading a lot more of in the future! There were some stories which could be good but they ended too early before they could make any impact on reader.
