The Moon Knight you’ve been demanding by Jed MacKay and Alessandro Cappucio this July
Moon Knight is one of Marvel’s most enigmatic and compelling heroes. He is back in an all-new ongoing series. It will be written by Jed MacKay(Black Cat) and making his Marvel Comics debut, artist Alessandro Cappuccio (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers). Issue #1 will spin directly out of the recent “Age of Khonshu” arc in Jason Aaron’s Avengers run. It promises to be a worthy new adventure for this fascinating character.
The mysterious Mr. Knight has opened his Midnight Mission, his people petitioning for protection from the weird and horrible. That protection is offered by Moon Knight, who stalks the rooftops and alleys marked with his crescent moon tag. He brings violence to any who would harm his people. In whichever guise he dons, Marc Spector is back on the streets, a renegade priest of an unworthy god. But while Khonshu languishes in the prison that Moon Knight put him in, the white-cowled hero must still observe his duty: protecting those who travel at night. And let it be known – Moon Knight will keep the faith.
Since his first appearance in 1975’s Werewolf by Night #32 by comic book greats Doug Moench and Don Perlin, Moon Knight has stood out over the years thanks to his intriguing mythology and the psychological complexities of the character. Having enjoyed critically-acclaimed runs by Brian Michael Bendis, Warren Ellis, and Jeff Lemire, Mark Spector now makes his much-demanded return with a series that will give fans exactly what they’ve been asking for and serve as a perfect gateway for newcomers interested in this unique Marvel hero. Don’t miss the start of Moon Knight’s new era when Issue #1 hits stands on July 7th!
