Wow, a lot happened this issue for a Bendis comic. Madame Masque is on the scene and a confirmation that Echo is in fact dead. I am surprised that Bendis killed her off to tell the truth. This issue, like most in this series, was good, not great however, but it was readable.

6 out of 10 from me.

So, I don't know if I missed something from the previous 9 issues or the every previous appearance of Moon Knight ever. The was not a new reader friendly comic. It read like a strange coke binge. It felt as if it was going to end every 8 pages or so but then it would start up again and try to hold interest but, it doesn't work. The opening page is beautiful but after that it all goes cock-eyed. Maleev does amazing looking work but it's so static that it doesn't actually flow from panel to panel and when you have no idea who characters are because they really have no discernable features the comic goes all to hell.

That sucks.

I hope you enjoy them when you get home.

Decent issue.

I was expecting a last minute save for Echo, and I have to say I'm kinda sad she ia dead, which is a testament to the quality of this book because I couldn't have cared leas about her prior to this series. Likewise, I've always found Moon Knight uninteresting before, and this run is the longest I've read featuring him.

Maleev's art is fantastic as usual.

Overall a nice transition to the final act of this series.

Story: 7
Art: 9
Subtotal: 8
Features The Great One: +1
Pisses off established Moon Knight Fans: +1
Overall: 10

This book answered the age old question "If a minority character is killed in a non-event book and no one is around to read it, will the bloggers still bitch about the double standard between male and female characters in comics?"

By the way, the answer is no.

I give it a 7.
