Well said I couldn't agree more
The scars of Zodiac's attack linger with the faithful of the Midnight Mission, but that doesn't stop Moon Knight from picking an entirely new fight. A new arc begins as Moon Knight goes to war with the vampires of the Structure, but he finds it a battle on two fronts - one on the midnight streets, and the other within his own mind!
RATED T+
Moon Knight works best in concert with himself. Back in the early 1980s, he was actually doing such a good job that he thought he didnt have a mental disorder. Here things have gotten so bad that he needs to have an intervention with himself. Hes struggling with himself on so many levels that shine a spotlight on the most interesting aspect of the character: himself. The villains. The confusion. The relentless combat. None of that has ever been as interesting as the character himself. MacKay takes the opportunity to really explore him, and it works beautifully. Read Full Review
This has already been one of Moon Knight's all-time best runs, but it refuses to settle and instead continues to reach impressive new heights, and it seems to be only getting better from here. Read Full Review
Capuccio delivers some beautifully detailed art with a wonderful art style. The art brilliantly distinguishes the psychological elements of the story from the brutal action. Read Full Review
Moon Knight #14 is a great example of what a writer can achieve by playing the long game with established tropes and continuity. MacKays decision to split the issues focus between a villain battle and tensions with the personalities gives the script an uneven feeling but is made up for by powerful art and popping colors. If the future issues in the arc find their footing in the balance between internal and external, then this run of Moon Knight is shaping up to be one of the strongest yet. Read Full Review
The internal dialogue explains the agreement in place to give Marc control and cuts deep into Marc's fears of how others view his condition and that he's by far the least likable of Moon Knight's personalities. If he lets the others out, will anyone still love him? Although it takes him getting his ass handed to him by the assassins, it appears the words finally hit home. What now becomes of Moon Knight? Read Full Review
Moon Knight #14 is half a step above a breather issue with an interesting conversation between Moon Knight's multiple personalities as they debate the merits of their relationship and decide on a new way to live. There's almost no progress on the plot, but there's enough potential for a new status quo to feel like this issue is leading you somewhere. Read Full Review
This volume of moon knight has been great but without Steven, Jake and khonshu I felt even though it's been great it hasn't been everything it could be. Jed Mackay is a fantastic writer and I knew we'd get there and do so In a clever and we'll thought out way. The dialogue was fantastic! The inner struggle and denial then Marc's realization they are all three parts to a whole. This was one of if not my favorite issue so far and I am so excited to see where we go from here.
This was crazy good. My favorite issue of the series.
Jed MacKay keeps on delivering!
This issue captures the essence of Moon Knight and why I love this character so much.
It’s a deep introspection delving into Moon Knight’s psyche.
The constant shifts between Marc, Steven and Jake as they try to help Marc through his problems and realise his condition was never the problem and they need each other was beautiful.
The characterisation was perfect.
You could feel the emotion in every page. Also, anyone suffering with inner struggles not just D.I.D. could relate to Marc’s feelings.
Jed Mackay knocked it out of the park
alescappuccio’s art is amazing as always. The shading, facial expressions & body language was *chefs kiss* 👌

If you’ve read any of my previous reviews for this series, you should already know how glad I am to see Cappuccio back on the art duties after his break last issue. As for the story, it’s incredibly put together. The conversation between Marc, Steven, and Jake was already something I was looking forward to due to MacKay’s talents in writing, but he adds to it by having a battle with Nemean and Grand Mal occur at the same time. If that wasn’t enough, tying it into the internal discussion happening throughout the book was just great. I really like that Marc is accepting the help of others and I thought that him acknowledging Reese as the person he wants to be was a very nice touch.
Everything in this issue is good. Mackay's work is wonderful
The language and art are excellent here. But the creators take a bold gamble and I don't think it fully pays off. Author and artist collaborate on the conversation between Moon Knight's personalities, but the artist is left to tell the real-world fight story on his own. Mr. Cappuccio does a very good job with that. But the conversation side of the comic is *so* intensely great that it overshadows the fight.
Which is the long-winded explanation for why I'm rating this issue almost-but-not-quite great as a whole.
one of the best series out there. I like the character depth and the art.
I like it. I think it was a lot of talking but, it all meant something. Interesting take on the personalities of Moon Knight talking to each other.
