    Comic Vine - Tony 'G-Man' Guerrero Nov 19, 2014

    This series makes me so incredibly happy. I've always felt Moon Knight was a great characters and it brings me joy to have see him with such a great series. Brian Wood and Greg Smallwood are doing wonders with this series. Any doubts readers had over the changing of the creative team should be long gone by now. Each issue gives you something different. Things go in a strange and bad direction (for Moon Knight) in this issue. As soon as I finish reading, I start counting the days until the next issue. Read Full Review

    Comic Booked - David Hinspeter Dec 13, 2014

    For the first time in years, Moon Knight seems to have a story of his own. In the previous runs of Moon Knight, his story has seemed mostly reactionary, dealing with the wages of the Dark Reign and Norman Osborne, and before that the infamous Committee. I look forward to seeing how this new development will effect the world of Moon Knight and Marvel as a whole. Read Full Review

    Artwork, coloring, and narrative act in a glorious unison and bring about a HUGE shift in the plotline, as the creative team really kicks things into gear. This might just be the best Moon Knight run yet and let’s hope the momentum isn’t lost anytime soon. Read Full Review

    Comic Book Resources - Doug Zawisza Nov 24, 2014

    "Moon Knight" #9 is a turnkey issue that Marvel Comics let slip into readers' hands and blow their minds. There is a development in the final pages of this issue that not only affects this comic book, but also has potentially long-lasting repercussions. Brian Wood demonstrates a fantastic grasp on the character and his setting by giving readers an entire issue that is, essentially, a conversational psychoanalysis. The end of the issue leaves readers wondering what happens next to Khonshu's servant thanks to tremendous synchronized efforts from Wood, Smallwood, Bellaire and Lanham. This has been a strong reboot of Moon Knight since issue #1, but this comic book serves up a great example of how to continue to build the world around Khonshu. Read Full Review

    All-Comic - Jeremy Matcho Nov 19, 2014

    Its odd to say, but Moon Knight has not dropped off in quality in any department since the new creative team has taken over. Everyone involved is doing great work and continues to make this an excellent book. Brian Wood is really impressive with his writing and the art and colors feel very natural with the story. Another great issue in what has to be considered one of Marvels most underrated books. Read Full Review
