Is there any more of that type of sci-fi in MK? I got the impression that, when it did go fantasy, it was more along the lines of Egyptian legends and that stuff. Was he a street hero like Batman, "villain"-fighter like Batman or supernatural like Doc Strange?
: I think that the

: Moench's m.o. with MK. For me the story was
: atypical because it was a little more heavy
: on the sci-fi than usual (very X-files), and
: it was also kind of crammed into 4 books
: when it may have been better off
: decompressed into 8 or 10.
