Random thought today. I think Moon Knight has the potential to be a great character...if Marvel would give him enough attention. So that got me wondering...DOES MOON KNIGHT NEED MORE ATTENTION IN THE MARVEL U?
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!
Does he need more attention?
@CATPANEXE:
To my knowledge, he is only appearing in his own title and Secret Avengers. Am I wrong on that? I just feel like he's under rated and could be a lot more popular.
I actually missed the Shadowland mini. Never picked up heroes for hire in my life, so I never knew he was in that, either.
You and I seem to be in the same boat.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure Marvel are doing their best to promote him. Giving him to their #1 writer (despite what I think of the series) just proves it.
I'm lost as to how the current amount of attention given to the character isn't enough?agrred
Moon Knight has always flown slightly under the radar(or completely off it depending on who you talk to) and that is how I like it. He is given the perfect amount of attention. I don't want him to have more attention, simply because I don't want to have to chase him through a trillion different issues like fans of Wolverine or Deadpool. I think MK is one of the most aptly rated characters in the Marvel Universe.

@primepower53: he's a relative unknown to the public at large, outside of people like us, yet, he has his own title (which keeps re-appearing despite low sales leading to cancellations), is in a team book, and appears in many other prolific titles and events. That and he has merchandizing and appeared as a main character in a video game to an audience who for the most part likely wouldn't recognize him. To me, it seems their doing all they can and then some. I don't believe Marvel is ignoring Moon Knight.
I completely agree with this.
