Exactly, when I look at scores I ignore the 10s and 1s if there is no context. Just review bombing.

Mar 08, 2023You know an issue has your attention when you arrive at the end and it feels as if no time has passed. That's what happened with Moon Knight #21, made even more impressive by the fact that Moon Knight isn't even in the majority of the story. Read Full Review

Comic Watch - Dustin Gebel
Mar 08, 2023Moon Knight #21 is a perfect reminder of what makes the series such a fun and compelling read every month, thanks to its combination of long-game characterization and established aesthetics. MacKay moves out of the Moon Knight perspective and puts a focus on Reese, giving the book a refreshing heat that extends into the coloring and lettering choices of the issue. Cappuccios art captures that balance as it plays on the anatomy and physicality of both characters while working with Rosenbergs colors to play on the strengths of the series. Even 20 issues in, this book is proof that extended runs are not a diminishing return, and make the case for allowing a run to breathe and develop. Read Full Review

Mar 08, 2023Cappuccio delivers some beautifully detailed and memorable art throughout the issue. I love the use of shadow in certain moments of the story and how it enhances the tone of the story. Read Full Review

Weird Science Marvel Comics - mrgabehernandez
Mar 08, 2023Moon Knight #21 continues the attacks from a mysterious new villain with a weapon that could destroy entire crowds of people with the flick of a switch. The mystery surrounding the villain is intriguing, and the art is stellar, but the story lacks a hook to give it emotional weight and importance. Read Full Review

What more can I say about this run. Already a classic Moon Knight series, 21 issues run. It feels fresh, the development of characters, especially Reese, has been awesome to see. I'm not going to go in depth but if you're reading this review debating to read this Moon Knight, start with issue 1 and you won't regret it.

I fail to understand how people could rate this and other issues of this run a 1 out of 10...the lowest possible score! That would have to mean that the issue has absolutely NO redeeming qualities in it whatsoever. None. Not a solitary panel of artwork, not a single line of dialogue, nothing. People are allowed to dislike a comic, that's the whole point of posting ratings and reviews, but the obvious and consistent review-bombing by a couple childish people is frustrating as hell. Anyway, rant over. This issue was absolutely incredible, as this whole series has been.

The review bombing in this book and in Zdarsky's Daredevil is something I dont comprehend at all.

MacKay & Cappuccio triumph month after month, and I think this issue really illustrates a big reason why: because their supporting cast can be as compelling as the protagonist and all have their own parallel journeys alongside him, a thing we don't see enough of these days when everything has to be about the big headline. Moon Knight is barely in this issue, and the quality doesn't dip even a little bit!

This volume has been consistently great and it continues with this issue. I can't wait to see where we go from here.

Pretty good issue in an awesome run. Quickly speaking about the art, Cappuccio is just outstanding. I'm absolutely in love with his art and I hope he stays on this book forever. Onto the story, I enjoyed a little more focus on Reese and Soldier here, as MacKay does a good job of making the reader care more about them. I think their interactions were very well-done in this issue. Plus, I enjoyed seeing Reese struggling with becoming a vampire, along with Reese's commentary about Soldier as a person. Finally, I'm intrigued to see what develops with the hooded figure at the end of the issue. I'm definitely interested in the story they have going on here, and the ending panel was super ominous; I love it.

The art really made this issue. Plot wise it's good enough, but it really gets elevated by the visuals.

This is a stylish little chapter, and some time spent in Reese's point of view is much appreciated--even if it doesn't dive particularly deep. The art is dynamic and polished, but it really seems to be testing the absolute minimum amount of detail required for good comics art. This title is still a dependably satisfying read, but the current arc seems prone to wandering into the tall grass and letting the strategic plot stall out.
