 iFMagazine.com Reviews - Comic Book Review: MOON KNIGHT #1
Created by Doug Moench, Moon Knight straddled the line between conventional super hero mixed with horrific interludes and a protagonist who literally had a split personality (replete with three different alter egos).
Nonetheless, the storytelling is in the spirit of the best of Moon Knight stories – right down to the twist ending that sets up where Marc Spector should be at the beginning of his new series – at the bottom, destroyed, humiliated and in need of finding himself again (hey, sounds familiar).
MOON KNIGHT really is a truly phenomenal Marvel character, now it’s up to Huston to prove to the rest of the world who thinks he’s nothing more than a second-rate Batman that we were right all along.

Moon Knight is kind of like the poor man’s Batman.

Instead, they’re about ideas and concepts, like Moon Knight’s powers waning during a full lunar eclipse, a bioterrorism attack on the Chicago water supply that turns people mad or a trip to St. Lucien where the locals are disappearing and turned into zombies.
