This book is truly going in the right direction. I really like what Charlie Huston and David Finch are trying to do here. Marc Spector is truly at his lowest point. His life right now, truly is the dumpster at the bottom. On top of that, it appears that we have some kind of group, govt. or otherwise, profiling him and trying to keep him right where he's at. And Bushman is part of, if not the leader of, this group. Marc is reaching out to DuChamp, although it seems to be a set up, as they both think the other called. There also seems as if there may be a new Moon Knight, a female, Marlene Alraune. Her father is the Dr. excavated the newly discovered chambers, of King Seti II, in the Valley of the Kings. So we just know that she's going to play in to this somehow. As the profiler states, "She's a killer too." and "Killer always end up being drawn together." So they decide they're going to come up with a plan to isolate Marc even more, so that he will pull himself even farther out of the world. However, someone in the group takes the initiative to initiate the plan prematurely. He has DuChamp beaten up, Marc delves out justice by carving the attacker up, and in doing so realizes how much he truly misses the life and will now do anything to get it back. The opposite of what the group was trying to do. The character development they've put into this series so far is astounding. We really get a feel for these characters, and are having feeling for them already. Like I said, I really like where they're going, and I can't wait to see what happens next.
