A dark couple for stories. Well told and nicely drawn. A good way to immerse yourself in the Moon Knight mythos before it hits your TV screens.

I don't even know why I finished this comic, I literally had no idea what was going on.

There's zero explanation as to the multiple personalities of MK and no way to differentiate between them. The art style was so dark it's hard to discern anything and every single male character is drawn the same, so I didn't even know who half of the people were in the panels at any given time. The story makes very little sense. 

I wouldn't recommend this book to any comic fan, whether new or experienced. There are way better MK stories out there to pick up.

enjoyed this, but it was one of the worse mk runs tbh. also the art style kinda made everyone look alike to it was like a sport in trying to figure out who was who.

Some bits of good writing show though the thick layer of edgy angst.

Also, did anyone else's copy have an intense scent of ink? Gave me multiple headaches.
