Moon Knight #6 - Marvel


I really like what Charlie Huston and David Finch are doing with this book. The sense I get, is basically they're tearing Moon Knight, or more specifically Marc Spector, down to nothing and then they're rebuilding him, in a sense. Taskmaster showed up at the end of last issue, but Marc was stronger than he thought he would be. Rather quickly, in this issue, it's Moon Knight that comes out victorious. With this matter taken care of, Marc gets himself cleaned up, literally, and tries to put the rest of the pieces of his life back in order. But, Marc is still being haunted. Now he's haunted by the evils of his past. I don't understand how the committee could arrange this, but this may be the final thing that sends him into a killing spree claiming to be the vengeance of Khonshu. He wants to be a hero, but his role may be a bit more complicated than that. We'll have to see where he goes from here. But overall, and excellent book.
