Moon Knight #11

moon-knight-11-coverStill reeling from the death of Echo, Moon Knight contacts Maria Hill for helping tracking down Madame Masque who has stolen the head of Ultron for her father Count Nefaria. Despite her concerns, Hill agrees to help locate Masque and allow Moon Knight to take her down.

The majority of the comic features the battle between Moon Knight and Madame Masque who appear to be equally matched. And it appears that Echo may not be gone completely as she emerges as another aspect of Marc Spector’s increasingly crowded personality.

I’m going to be sad to see this series go away. Writer Brian Michael Bendis turns in another strong issue that still finds a way to incorporate the comic’s trademark quirky nature even with the dark turn the title has undertaken the past couple of months.

This issue gets most of the storylines wrapped up with what’s sure to be a can’t miss final issue next month as Moon Knight goes out Nefaria one more time. Worth a look.

Avengers vs. X-Men #0

avengers-vs-x-men-0-coverAvengers vs. X-Men, Marvel Comics’ big 2012 summer event begins here. With a Zero issue. Really? A Zero issue? Apparently Marvel didn’t learn from DC’s mightily bungled New 52 that things which happened in the 1990’s should stay in the 1990’s.

The comic is broken into two stories. The first (written by Brian Michael Bendis) is the reemergence of the Scarlet Witch who, with the help of Ms. Marvel and Spider-Woman, helps save a United Nations ambassador from M.O.D.O.K. and A.I.M. Despite her concerns the pair convince her to return to the Avengers mansion where she receives a chilly reception.

The second story (by Jason Aaron) focuses on Hope‘s growing violent outbursts as she waits for the Phoenix to arrive to either embrace her or destroy her. The story begins with Hope’s altercation with Cyclops over his overprotective nature and ends with her nearly beating the Serpent Society to death before looking longingly into the sky for something just beyond the horizon.
