Recap:Moon Knight is one of the many B-list Marvel characters (or is it C-List) that is very hard to get right. A lot of writers have tried to make this character stand out but sales don't always favor this dark and confused character. The last solo series Marc Spector was spotlighted in was Vengeance of Moon Knight (2009) which lasted 10 issues. Now he is part of Steve Rogers' Secret Avengers as a repercussion of Siege.
The June solicitation for the second issue of this new series says the following:Moon Knight heads to Los Angeles as a one-man Avengers team to dissolve a criminal syndicate tearing the City of Angels apart. Except there will be no warm welcome, because once word gets out about Marc Spector’s arrival, the mastermind behind LA’s crime circuit will stop at nothing to make an example of any Avengers who cross him. Plagued by incurable schizophrenia, can Moon Knight hold it together to clear out a city riddled with villains. This May, two of comics’ biggest talents reunite to redraw, and redefine one of Marvel’s Big Shots , only in Moon Knight #1!
