    Avengers Assemble...in L.A.!

    Possible spoilers
    The moment we've all been waiting for since the start of the series- Moon Knight meets the Avengers! And boy is it a good moment when he does! Marc's reaction is priceless to me ("You're here. You're all really here.") Seeing all of the Avengers appear is good, but a small moment in the comic I liked is how the Avengers don't actually hate Marc for what he's been doing. Once he explains that his new personalities are (allegedly) to put the Kingpin off his game, they're all pretty cool with it, which I thought was good of them.
     
    We also finally get the Kingpin's identity revealed, and I'm glad to see that it's who I thought it was (it was kind of hinted in #2, but I wasn't entirely sure who it was at the time). It makes sense after it was hinted at in New Avengers Finale, and I'm glad that nod to continuity wasn't forgotten. It's also going to be good when Moon Knight and the Kingpin do fight; now that I know whom the Kingpin is, I'm excited for the fight! His entrance and introduction was done well, it's good to see him being such a magnificent bastard. (As he rightly should be).
     
    There's really not much that I can complain about for this issue. At one point early on Marc was misspelt as "Mark", and I wasn't sure whether it was a typo or whether someone didn't realise that his name ended with a C. The issue doesn't really have much action other than the Kingpin's appearance, but I don't think that the issue really suffers for it. Overall, I was pleased with this issue, and I'm hoping that the series will continue to be this good.

      Marc Specter comes face to face with the real Avengers in this latest great issue of Moon Knight by Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev. While it's not an issue heavy on the action, it is heavy on character as readers get further clues on just how crazy Moon Knight is and the Kingpin of L.A. starts getting his own hands dirty.It should be pointed out that this is slow paced issues of what is, overall, a slow paced series. People really should be aware of that before giving it a try, though I th...

      Review for Moon Knight #6.  The Story: Marc gets home, talks with Echo and then the Avengers come and talk with him.  The Good: Im finally starting to turn around on Bendis writing, he seems to have a good grasp on each of the characters and writes amusing banter with all of them. Also I really like Echo and her budding relationship with Marc, she seems smart enough to know to stay away far enough from him since he doesn't have all his marbles. The way Bendis portrays Marc insanity with him bein...
