I know people have differing opinions on whether they like when Moon Knight is sane or insane, so I figured I'd take official vote. For some reason I can't create a poll so just write your choice in. Personally I did like when he was killing people and carved Bushman's face off, but I like how now he can be viewed as a hero again and work with others like Steve Rogers and Spider-Man. If you've read the Shadowland Moon Knight issues though it seems like he might revert back to killing. That doesn't necessarily mean he'll become insane, that is unless Khonshu takes over his thoughts again.
Moon Knight
Character » Moon Knight appears in 1414 issues.
Moon Knight, Marc Spector, Steven Grant, and Jake Lockley: four different aspects of the same man who was resurrected by Khonshu (the Egyptian Lunar-God of Vengeance and Justice) to serve as his "avatar." Those unjust mortals who prey upon the innocents traveling at night, with powers that come from the moon, beware the Vengeance of the Moon Knight!
Do you like insane Moon Knight or sane Moon Knight?
I'm down with it all honestly. I like the fact that Moon Knight is an ever changing growing in mentality character
much like a real human being. also helps to keep things fresh. Maybe it was because I was introduced to him when
he first hit the scene so I see none of his recent exploits as " what is Moon Knight supposed to be " though, imo.

"I was introduced to him with the 2006 run and I really liked him, and then I got the Vengeance series as it came out and I also like how he changes just like a real human. Now I have a big collection of his earlier stuff too and I also like that. I buy every issue that he appears in and as long as the writing is good, I really don't care if he's sane or not.
I like them both equally. Sane Moon Knight had a far funnier interaction with khonshu.

Wait, just let me clear something up... by "insane" and "sane", are you meaning "psychotic" and "heroic"?
" I prefer him INsane, can't wait for Bendis to make this guy interesting again. I know he is a Secret Avenger now but the clean image does not suit him, if Charlie Huston ever did one thing right was writing that fantastic arc (The Bottom) about him going nuts. "if you're waiting for Bendis to make Moon Knight interesting...you'll be waiting forever.

Was that a diss on Bendis or a diss on Moon Knight? :p
" @InnerVenom123: Bendis. I think. o_O "
Knowing Vance that could be either way. Or.... both?
Was that a diss on Bendis or a diss on Moon Knight? :p "Bendis.He's not going to use Moon Knight well in Secret Avengers.He doesn't know how.He has no idea how to write a team comic.Secret Avengers is just like all his other books.3 characters will dominate as far as actually doing something notable in the book and everyone else will just be there.Since Moon Knight isn't the A-list character I doubt he's going to do anything pivotal in the book.I think Bendis may be writing a new Moon Knight solo book but I don't know how he's going to write Moon Knight.We know he can write street levelers because his Daredevil was fairly good.However I have absolutely no faith in his writing anymore.I feel he will either go the way of Loeb and have Moon Knight doing a bunch of ridiculous things and writing other characters out of character to make Moon Knight look good or he will write a mediocre book where Moon Knight stays within his range and nothing really happens.

You do realize Brubaker is writing Secret Avengers.... right? Or... wait... is Bendis getting hold of that book!?

Damn

"Brubaker writes like Bendis now...it's like everyone is writing like Bendis now.Brian Reed was writing like him in Dark Reign..that whole Moonstone replacing Ms.Marvel sh#t was the worst thing i've ever read.

Brian Reed wrote like a madman. I listened to an interview of him talking about 'Sinister Spider-man'. Apparently his editor did a double take after reading certain parts of the script.

Oh come on, give it more credit than that. At least Valkeryie wasn't screwing Ant-Man on the dining room table while Steve watched from a Security camera while being talked down to by Sharon.

"FEED ME--

" i like him sane as well, but my vote is for INSANE!! "I feel the same. He's getting a good name for being sane, but he was more interesting when he was crazy.
I liked him in the classics where he also had magical powers. This new Moon Knight is becoming too far fetched for me like the Punisher.
