Gatts posted:Cap has an adopted son? When Cap spent some time in Dimension Z he rescued a baby from Zola and raised him as a son. Because time moves differently there the kid is all grown up and was running around that place being a hero as Nomad. The whole thing is kind of bizarre though seeing as its been less than 10 years since the last time there was a new Captain America.

Eagerly awaiting the reveal that Cap's adopted son has brain swapped with Zemo or Zola or Red Skull and will be the new SUPERIOR ARYAN Captain America!

They've already shown the cover of Avengers which has the lineup of like 9 months into the future, and the guy holding the shield is Falcon.

I thought Ian was Cap's biological lab-grown son, not his adopted son.

You realize the reason they don't mention Truth or Isaiah Bradley is because of rights negotiations with the late Robert Morales, right? It's not weird institutionalized racism.

I have enjoyed Moon Knight but for a book designed to 'revamp' Moon Knight or whatever, I feel like 99% of it (ESPECIALLY this issue) could have been literally any character with roughly the same skillset. Which makes for entertaining enough (and gorgeously drawn/colored) comic, but how do you sell this as MOON KNIGHT IS COOL/MARKETABLE AGAIN, GUYS? What about this (or 99% of the run) couldn't be done as a story featuring Batman, Punisher, Daredevil, Captain America, Winter Soldier, Black Widow, Hawkeye, Mockingbird, Robin/Nightwing/Red Robin/Batgirl/etc., Punisher, Jack Bauer, or really almost literally street level character who is against injustice and crime? They're good comics, but it just seems kinda pointless to toss off five one-shots that do nothing to establish a hook/character and then dump it on Brian Wood to get canceled by issue 10.

What about the issue where he has to dress in the Khonshu armor to fight ghosts? That's much more distinctly Moon Knight and wouldn't be done with any of those other characters.

I don't think it could've been just anyone. A lot of it plays on how he's a crazy guy in a bright white suit being a vigilante of the night. And not everyone has the resources he has. I like how Ellis is playing up the, "They see me coming" thing which is very unlike most street level Marvel heroes. Speaking of Moon Knight again, are other MK runs as good as this one? I've never really read the character. I've seen him around my whole life, but people always wrote him off as the Batman ripoff so I never paid him much mind.

I like how Ellis is playing up the, "They see me coming" thing which is very unlike most street level Marvel heroes. That's a big part of it. Batman and Daredevil, the biggest heroes most similar to Moon Knight in terms of ability, style, and gear, would have stealthily picked the mob enforcers off one by one, if not just snatching the girl away under their noses outright. I also can't see either one doing the dream issue. Maybe Batman, but it still fit the supernaturally inclined Moon Knight better, as did ghost punching and the mystic armor. Batman also might have done the first issue, but he would be short with the police and not talked to the killer, losing all the flavor.

It really emphasizes MK's instability. WickedHate fucked around with this message at 21:24 on Jul 4, 2014 |

I do like that Moon Knight is acting as the protector of those who travel at night. It's like, oddly comforting to have a hero specifically for that.

Skwirl posted:Yeah a good 80 to 90 percent of the last issue could have been those heroes (meaning I can see a well drawn book that is mostly one of them tearing apart 5 stories of gangsters being pretty awesome) but the part at the end where he tells the girl not to be scared, it's just a mask, and then she says it's his real face is totally a Moon Knight thing (maybe Batman, but definitely not Captain America, or Daredevil or any of the rest of the Bat family). It's also a Rorschach thing. Actually, gear and limo aside, Rorschach would also fit that issue really well. Someone get him an ink blot shaped drone to squash people with.

That was Khonsu's deal, really; he was a lunar deity, and so was associated with the night time and with travel (because of the moon's 'travel' across the sky at night). He was, quite literally, the god of 'the light in the darkness.' That it's taken this long for someone to make that explicit with Marvel Khonshu is the surprising part, really.

WickedHate posted:It's also a Rorschach thing. Rorschach doing such extravagant martial art stuff instead of just being a competent and horribly dirty fighter would be such a disservice to the character. While it's true that a lot of these issues is universal and not unique to Moon Knight, I think the odd behavior and to-the-point brutality is pretty unique to him, as well as the visual motifs. I mean sure, last issue was mostly just The Raid with a mask on, but there were still key moments that define him as a character.

Before Watchmen: Rorschach should've just been 6 issues of Rorschach storming a building and beating the christ out of random goons. One issue per floor.
