MOON KNIGHT: CITY OF THE DEAD #1 will also feature the comic debut of Layla El-Faouly. In an interview with CBR, writer David Pepose revealed some of the history between Marc and Layla: “Layla's past with Marc comes from being a fellow member of the mercenary team, the Karnak Cowboys. So she knows Marc in a way that very few people do, knowing Marc during a time that hasn't been explored as much in continuity.”

Success!

On art is newcomer Alessandro Cappuccio, whose dynamic poses and excellent use of shadows make Moon Knight a lovely looking book. It's nice to see Marvel taking a chance on a newer artist, and it's even nicer to see it paying off. Cappuccio: I'd like to introduce as many people as possible to the character of Moon Knight, I'd like him to take the space he deserves within the Marvel Universe. I hope this new series is the right opportunity to do justice to one of the most interesting characters around. What previous Moon Knight portrayals weigh on your interpretation? What kind of new touches are you bringing to the character? Tom, how did the process of assembling this creative team come together? What specific attributes do Jed, Alessandro, and the rest of the team possess that fit with your vision for Moon Knight?

The House of Shadows, introduced in Strange Tales #120 (by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko) was a visitor from a parallel dimension called the Shadow Realm. After holding a journalist captive, it was banished to its home world in a battle with Doctor Strange. It later reappeared as part of an apartment building and began disappearing residents. When Moon Knight found out about this, he entered the entity to free the captives. However, in a bizarre twist of events, during the psychological warfare that the house normally engages in, Spector was able to convince the entity to join his cause as the new base of operations for the Midnight Mission. Following his rejection of Khonshu, the vigilante Moon Knight opted to carry on with his former master's duty to protect night travelers. He claimed a territory in Manhattan and established a congregation called the Midnight Mission, whose doors were open for anybody to request his help. One of Moon Knight's earliest rescues were a group of neighbors forcibly turned into vampires by a vampiric pyramid scheme cult. After killing their "recruiters," one of the vampires, a woman named Reese, pled for mercy and was shown such as Moon Knight recognized them as victims. Reese then became the Midnight Mission receptionist and Moon Knight's right hand, the only job she could keep due to her imposed lifestyle change. [2] This new volume of adventures begins as what seems to be one and done stories, but there's a thread that lingers through them all that culminates in an explosive confrontation and a reveal that I never saw coming. This is helped out by the fact that there's a second villain waiting in the wings who initially seems more important, but might be more of a Ghost-Maker to Moon Knight than a Joker. The supporting cast are great fun too, especially once a familiar West Coast Avenger pops onto the scene. With Khonshu's help, Moon Knight was able to travel through the spirit realm to return to the mission faster than he otherwise could to defeat Zodiac. Unfortunately, Zodiac had already killed Soldier, by shooting through Reese, when Moon Knight bested him. Blood of the Fist I was pretty disappointed the other guys weren't in this tbh. Marc has a good grasp on his mind and his illness this time so obviously Steven and Jake don't even get to say hello, rip. But the scenes with his therapist went hard.Psionic Absorption: Seemingly torturing its occupants when really it craves interaction and feeds off the strong emotions-- such as fear. [4]
