As a life long Moon Knight fan, I’ve been anticipating this new volume that’s about to hit store shelves in another two weeks. The first issue just recently went through it’s first FOC and I’ve been fed a little info on possible first appearance.
An apostate priest, Moon Knight has taken on Khonshu’s duty as his own. To the people he protects, this is a blessing. To Hunter’s Moon, this is sacrilege. It is no small thing, to betray a god and take on his role. And when the Fist of Khonshu offers shelter to vampires, the ancient enemies of the Moon God? The Moon Knight requires correction, and Hunter’s Moon will bring him back to the right path - whatever it might take.
Now I wasn’t give many details other than they appear in the first issue and that’s the character on the cover of the 3rd issue. We all know Marc Spector is not all there in the head with his Dissociative Identity Disorder, basically personality disorder so this will get interesting for him to battle what Screenrant dubbed as his “dark opposite”.
I think this new Hunters Moon could be a really cool character that compliments Moon Knight being that he’s the Fist of Khonshu and a likely opposite.
No word if he appears in Moon Knight #2 but we should probably keep it on our radar.
Outstanding! I love comics, but MK is my guy, and I am very excited to see a new evolution in the story. As much as I don’t think I cared for the Sun God, I wouldn’t mind seeing his return…or at least some help in doing something with Black Spectre.
For, “Opposites,” of Moon Knight I usually think of Black Spectre or the latest foe, Sun God. I’m intrigued by this new foe seeing as Spectre is dead to my knowledge (I know few characters ever stay dead) and I hated Bemis’ run with the Sun God.
My Black Spectre theory is only based on Egyptian resurrection, which would fit in the pantheon. I still think there is some interesting story in the doctor heretic that was following Sun God; she could be a great problem character for Spector to have to deal with.
Based on the spoilers, I’m definitely in the first full appearance camp. Let’s see how many people argue it’s a cameo since the print run will be so high.
