toyster reviewed Moon Knight #1 Jul 22, 2021
5.0

This premier issue was just "ok". The story (Moon Knight,protector of the Moon Knight marked territory) didn't grab me and pull me in, unlike previous Moon Knight series. The artwork was good, not great. An average start for such a complex character.
