    I could just include a link, but I am too nice :D Ign gets the cred for it and looks like we will be seeing Marlene soon! Is it just me or does that detective in the preview seems similar to Detective Flint, but without the sure, sure?

    Moon Knight vs... an ex-girlfriend?!

    With Marc Spector's new status quo as the entrepreneur of a television show based on his superhero identity, one can imagine that an ex-girlfriend might not be comfortable with the show including them as well. In issue #8, it looks like that's exactly what's happening with Marc's old flame Marlene.

    Moon Knight #8 by Brian Bendis and Alex Maleev is out on Wednesday.

    So he's just replaced Frenchie with Buck, Marlene with Echo, and Flint with this guy. You, Bendis, are a creative freakin' genius.

    But his art style fits perfectly with the character.

    Also, the recap is wrong. Unless I'm not remembering correctly, Marc himself crawled into Khonshu's tomb... he wasn't carried there by Egyptians.

    Then there's the fact that he replaced the brilliant move of making Khonshu Marc's inner voice... with the f**king highest selling Avenger characters....

    @spiderbat87: @InnerVenom123: the recap was just a tv show episode, and he did say it was based on his life, so it is possible that they changed stuff for the show

    as for the marriage, from what i heard the plans the previous creator had were put off because of shadowland

    as for khonshu's voice, thats anyone's opinion, honestly, its just good to see moonie again

    Oh god I forgot he makes TV programs now. So he went from boxer to marine to CIA agent to mercenary to full time vigilante to a TV exec? That's like Deathstroke becoming a judge on Americas got talent.

    So what if it was on his TV show? His TV show isn't his actual origin.

    They were still married, however badly it was handled.

    I'd like to actually see Moon Knight, not Avenger-Man.

    Still, the recap makes it sound like he DIDN'T crawl through seven miles of desert under a pregnant Moon. Kinda ruins his first big insanely awesome feat.

    @InnerVenom123 True. Despite what he said when the new series was announced, I really don't think Bendis is a Moon Knight fan. He doesn't have enough respect for his past for that to be the case.

    Bendis will leave the book soon enough by killing Moon Knight off or just making him tough to salvage for other writers, please see Sentry and Spider-Woman as examples.

    I think it's just a error by the writers, the excavation they were at was in Sudan but the tomb is in Egypt, however it was near the border.
