He doesn’t carve crescent moons on the guys foreheads? Wimp…
Why would Khonshu pick this guy when the current Moon Knight he considered to be too tame already? Either this guy is much more hardcore then what we see here or we’re looking at a new retcon.
I think the guy on panel is the current Moon Knight, and not the other one appearing for Shadowland.
I also happen to like the current Moon Knight without the ’90 hardcore touch.
“Bruce who?”
LOL, this is how “The return of Bruce Wayne” really ends, with Bruce saying: I knew I should have taken a right at Albuquerque…
At the same time, Spector ends up in Gotham thinking “Who the hell are all these kids in costumes?”
Every Gotham villain would be covered in crescent moon scars seen how efficient a prison Arkham Asylum is. On the plus sides he’d kill the Joker and wear his face for Halloween.
Insert Frenchy and Alfred jokes here.
I really like the cover art here, in fact I’ve liked most of the covers for Shadowland thus far. For anyone who really knows Moon Knight, what do the little round hole things do on his knuckles? The only issue of Moon Knight I have is really old Marc Spector: Moon Knight featuring Shang Chi or something like that. Even that one I have no clue what was going on.
