Moon Knight, Volume 3 Review

Moon Knight, Volume 3: In the Night. Cullen Bunn and Ron Ackins. 2015. Marvel. 112 pages.

Rating: 3/5

Check out my review of Moon Knight volume 2.

I really like Moon Knight, but this volume didn't do him justice. This is more a collection of stand alone stories than a continuous arc. The creators on this one, which are different from each of the previous two volumes, do a good job portraying the character. I especially liked the art.

If there is any connecting factor to these stories, it is the heavy presence of Khonshu, the Egyptian god that turned Marc Spector into Moon Knight, and his followers. It fleshes out more of Moon Knight's world in that regard. The stories just ended up feeling more about that aspect than about Moon Knight himself.

A decent end to this series. Not as robust as previous Moon Knight books, but still worth a read for fans.
