The series’ first arc comes to a close with Moon Knight setting a trap and exposing Count Nefaria as the Kingpin of Los Angeles. Although the issue is extremely light on the one relationship that has made the previous issues so good (Echo barely makes an appearance here) we get plenty of Moon Knight dealing with his multiple personalities before putting his insane plan into action.
Despite having questions about his sanity, and having already turned him into the Avengers, Buck agrees to help Moon Knight sell a fake Ultron head to lure our the Los Angeles kingpin. Their plan, thanks to decomissioned S.H.I.E.L.D. toxin to slow down mutants, is somewhat successful.
Moon Knight is able to capture Snapdragon, but the victory is somewhat hollow with the knowledge that Count Nefaria has escaped and Moon Knight just may have missed his one opportunity to take down a villain far outside his power level.
A good end to the series first story arc. It will be interesting to see where things go from here. Worth a look.

Bones – The Memories in the Shallow Grave Read More »
After growing apart in recent years Harold (John Cho) and Kumar (Kal Penn) are brought back together for one more magical night of crazed debauchery. Harold now has a wife (Paula Garcés), a job on Wall Street, and a host of in-laws led by his intimidating father-in-law (Danny Trejo). Kumar, on the other hand, is still spending his days getting high without a job, a girlfriend, or a care in the world.
A trip to Harold’s to drop off a Christmas package begins a night of miracles (okay, more like impossibly contrived sequences and funny bits). These involve the horny daughter (Jordan Hinson) of a gangster (Elias Koteas), a baby on drugs, a nifty robot that makes waffles, the search for the perfect Christmas tree, Santa Claus (Richard Riehle), and a reunion with their woman-obsessed pal Neil Patrick Harris.
The third entry to the franchise is more of the same with some elaborate raunch and quite a bit of pot smoking. Some of the jokes work, some don’t, and one especially (and homage to A Christmas Story) is sure to make you wince.
