I'm very excited for this. I love Moon Knight and he always seems to get the shaft. This is like his 3rd series in five years.

glad to see the batman like armor gone! Moon Knight has so much potential, he just needs the right creative team. Like Byrne+Claremont, Frank+Miller!!

@ bixby


lol, i was just about to say that. This is the third Moon Knight #1 in 5 years, lol. Marvel sure does know how to whore out the #1 issues for money. They could have just as easily continued on with a new creative team.

they did the same thing with all their titles after Siege, its totally uncalled for.

IDK but this is one character I just can't get into.

@corndogburgler,Yeah, Marvel seems to be doing that a lot lately. I'm kind of pissed that Thor is being re-named Journey into Mystery and another series, The Mighty Thor is gonna start up. also very unhappy with Black Panther-man without fear to only be changed back to Daredevil this summer.

@DrFate, I agree I prefer this costume over the Vengeance of Moon Knight series.

I understand that he can be hard to get into. It doesn't help that they keep canceling his series and also changing writers often.

@marvel agreed. i like finch artwork unlike this maleev guy. i also agree with everyone else about this whole #1 thing that marvel keeps doing ,its hard to keep up with whats going on with them constantly rebooting the books.

I enjoyed the Charlie Huston run. Moon Knight just needs a better rogues gallery in my opinion. They also need to utilize that multiple personality disorder schtick better.

I MISS THE ORIGINAL SERIES...BILL SIENKIWICZ WAS THE MAN... AND MOON KNIGHT WAS THE CHARACTER TO READ BACK IN THE EARLY 80'S! THIS SERIES I'M NOT FEELING.

!? I'm actually a little upset. Maleev's art is usually a lot better than this.

I wonder how many issue number of MoonKnight will they have to do to get the character popular or in the top 10? Then again why do they still need to renumber the series again and again? Bet you guys 100 dollars this series will get cancelled in 12 months
