Once again, Marvel has sent us a Moon Knight preview, and once again, we aren’t reading Moon Knight so we have no idea what to say about it.
But here’s a question: What’s the deal with Moon Squire, that kid who’s going to be in Marvel’s New Champions?
Nevermind the fact that Marvel has decided that Gwenpool worked out so well, it’s decided to make an entire team of superheroes born from variant covers. But theoretically this Moon Boy has to fit into what Jed MacKay’s been doing with Moon Knight for years. Eventually Khonshu’s going to run out of fists. Can he be, like, the right big toe of Khonshu? Like he’s there for balance?
I look forward to getting a preview of that book some day and similarly not knowing what to write.
Check out our exclusive preview of Phases of the Moon Knight #2, out next week, and keep scrolling for the basic deets.
(W) Jed MacKay, Declan Shalvey (A) Jorge Fornes, Various (CA) Mateus Manhanini
The saga of the MOON KNIGHT spins on, as JED MACKAY, writer of the smash-hit MOON KNIGHT and VENGEANCE OF THE MOON KNIGHT series revisits vintage Marc Spector, with a period piece about peril and punching! THEN: DECLAN SHALVEY returns to the pages of MOON KNIGHT, only this time he’s set his sights on the future! Introducing an ALL-NEW Fist of Khonshu and a crime-ridden vision of a Marvel Universe, both older, grittier and worse for wear than any you’ve seen before!
