Nothing is more feared in the City of the Dead than the ancient crocodile goddess known as AMMUT THE DEVOURER. Unfortunately for Marc Spector, he is currently being digested inside Ammut's belly, memory by memory. Can Moon Knight survive the weight of his own horrific past, or will the JACKAL KNIGHT rule triumphant across the realms of both the living and the dead? All hope may be lost... That is unless the SCARLET SCARAB has anything to say about it!
Rated T+
Alongside the thick, weighted linework, the book thrives in its fluid depiction of color, and how those palettes influence the emotion of the book. The previous issue may have stumbled, suffering a stumble when it crossed a threshold to quote Campbell. With this issue, the creative team has proved there is a chance for change and sets the stage for the next step in Moon Knights journey. Read Full Review
Ferreira delivers visual thrills throughout the issue. The art is inventive and engaging and perfectly captures the suspense and tension of the story. Read Full Review
There's quite a bit happening within the pages of Moon Knight: City of the Dead #4, but the book's North Star is strong enough to keep things on track and the reader from losing their way. Read Full Review
My frustrations aside with an all-too-common aspect of modern comics when it comes to the repeated history of the character being explored, this is a pretty solid issue. The action is good, the narrative holds everything together well with a cohesive flow to it, and it sets up for what's to come with the scale of what's happening. The gang that Randall has put together isn't the greatest but they don't get a lot of time here either as it feels like a group thing and threat more than anything else. Layla makes out well with some time highlighting her journey through this and that helps and you definitely feel for Khalil. The artwork continues to be great and it's a fun title overall even with what frustrates me. Read Full Review
Moon Knight: City Of The Dead #4 abandons the child trafficking plot to get back to a standard chase to save Khalil in a perfectly serviceable issue. Admittedly, Moon Knight gets a rare opportunity for character growth, but the overall quest has outlived its potential. Read Full Review
It's about the same as the other issues. It had some cool flashback type scenes, but everything else was pretty generic.
