I’m not usually a comic reader but I watched the show and my friend this one. I have to say i really liked it! It was very confusing because you never knew what was real and what wasn’t but that’s exactly the point isn’t it? Definitely will look into reading more MK

I loved this comic, the art was great, the story was great, and the characters were fascinating. It kept you guessing what was real and what was just in Marc’s head. Marc coming to terms with his disorder and his other identities was well done. The flashbacks to Marc’s childhood and origin as moon knight were a great insight into his mental illness. I thought the changes in art style when a different personality was in control made the comic easier to read and understand.

Man, man, man. This book confuses me and amazes me in equal measure. I love the art style and hanging out with Marc, Jake, and Steven. It's not the most confused I've been while reading a graphic novel (that award is still held by Umbrella Academy: Dallas) but it's a close second.
I totally get why the show chose to use this run as a majority of their baseline.

Lemire had a great run on Moon Knight, and the art throughout was fantastic, especially the use of different artists to accentuate the different personalities. The story ran a little bit longer than it needed to, but this was definitely a worthwhile read. Lemire really nailed Marc's struggles with his mental health, and it was really interesting to read a story in which the protagonist and antagonist are the same person.

The journey we went through in this comic is weird, crazy and epic!
I absolutely loved the story and how the writer represents and deals with Mark Spencer's mental health issues. The art is amazing and switching between unique styles was brilliant!

Easily one of my all time favorite runs in Marvel. The constant questioning of reality and the intercuts between the personas of the main character (complete with their own unique art styles) makes for such a thrilling read from start to finish. It really feels like something you can jump into without any knowledge of the character or universe whatsoever. If you're at all interested in something contained in the Marvel comic pantheon, I'd highly recommend starting here.
