What a silly thing to say.<BR/><BR/>It's really interesting how defensive Moon Knight fans are, though. I mean, I never understand why anyone is defensive about the comics they like. Does it hide something deeper, like they're ashamed of liking it? I don't care if you don't like Moon Knight, because I do. And you're smart enough to like the original run.

I actually have the idea for a revamp mapped out fairly well. Of course, the best thing would be if Grant Morrison could write it. How good would Moon Knight be as a companion book to Batman (I know, I know - MK's <I>not</I> just a rip-off)? What we need is more of those split personalities. Working together.

It's not a perfect issue, but I give Benson a lot of leeway and look at these as chapters of a whole, so it doesn't bother me too much.<BR/><BR/>As for Lockley ... even Moench, who created the multiple personality aspect, didn't do much with differentiating them. They had different jobs and acted a bit differently because of it, but they never had distinct voices. Ironically, Bendis in Ultimate Spider-Man might have done the best job with his personalities for the brief time Moon Knight appeared in that book.)<BR/><BR/>Go back to Cuba, why don't you?!?!?!?Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13481137891542684401noreply@blogger.com
