So you would rather bog down every issue with in depth explanations as to who everybody is and what they're relationships are? Wow. Personaly I didn't have a big problem figuring out who everybody was. Presumambly that's due to the fact that I have been following the series from the beginning. --Previous Message-- : : --Previous Message-- : Seriously, just lay off on some of the : supporting characters...there just isn't : enough pages. : : All we need is Moon Knight and his crazy. : : Good issue though, 8.5/10 : : : Thought it was less a hit and more of : miss... : : MK 17: : : http://www.marvel.com/news/comicstories.2958.Weekend_Preview~colon~_Moon_Knight_%2317 : : Some page by page reactions... : s : p : o : i : l : e : r : s : : Not a fan of zombie comics/art and that's : the vibe of the cover. : : Missed the fact of the matter revealed in : the PrevPage that Khonshu himself help MK : with his Registration - and am surprised by : this confirmation that contradicts the : current theme, repeated in the first : paragraph, keeping readers/MU guessing if : Khonshu IS real. Also missed the : intent(seduction?) of Carson to 'keep his : clean start clean'. These reflect how the : story for 'some reason' is... wanting. : : Obviously effort was made to name characters : in the story but NOT the ones that HAD to be : for me(and new readers). MOST especially: : Marlene, Frenchie, Frenchiesboyfriend , : Nonamepilot, and even connecting the name to : Black Spectre(gotten from Wiki-research for : my last review). Bushman is mentioned in the : PrevPage but doubt all new readers could : place the connection to Marlene's subtle : footnote or MK's sidekick curse. : : Presumably that's Frenchie and his boyfriend : watching MK on the news and presumably he : gets up disgusted by the MK news. : : Presumably that's Marlene watching MK on the : news in front of the Electronic Store (that : probably not that busy on a deserted street; : location location location!). : : LIKED the fact that Tony is shown exercising : but that detail was tainted by the lack of : detail in the poorly drawn bottom panel. : Presumably SHIELD cloaks the doorknobs... : no, that's too much... : : Presumably Dr Depford's death should be : assumed, by readers, to be NOT connected to : the Carson killing even though he appears in : segue. : : Presumably that's Carson killing the : weaponsmith, who BTW, lost all potential : intrigue upon his death. : : Presumably that's Marlene having a heated : discussion about topics that only long : invested readers can make out. And speaking : of make out, does her coat turn into a sexy : shirt with only ONE button... err what was I : talking about again... : : Presumably the MK images here are for : reader's benefit to plainly show it's MK : with these conflicting emotions which is : ironic in an issue where the readers are : expected to KNOW who's who. : : Presumably Buck and his gang are the SHIELD : agents that killed Depford and stole the : Stark-tech and Carson(with the scar in this : scene) was there for (un)intentional reasons : TO BE revealed. : : Pesumably MK fired two of Spector's unnamed : employees for... watching TV. : : Presumably Detective Flint and Agent Ryan : talking over another suspected MK villain : was intended and that THREE PAGES(?!) was a : dramatic necessity. : : Presumably a hooker(please say that's NOT : Marlene) is a lady MK would call while on : the run from police and SHIELD. : : Presumably the story is teasing readers with : Mr Nonamepilot(maybe Wiki will say it's : Frenchie's son?) as a possible next MK stand : in. Bushman is right about MK respecting the : guy deep down 'cuz he doesn't fire the guy : for doing worse stuff than watching TV. : : LIKED the fact that Tony shows up with : SHIELD. HEY! Capekillers actually locate a : superhuman fugitive. Good for them. : Presumably Tony is SO involved with a penny : ante murder suspect, as opposed to globabl : Mighty Avenger threats, because of his : kinship to a fellow Avenger. : : Even though this cliffhanger was exciting - : thought the same of 16's ending but that one : ended up going nowhere! Oh, Moon Knight : effectively/disappointly evaded the police : with OFF panel skill and sure, Mr. : Nonamepilot got brief weak chastisement : stuck in after the anticipation faded. Not : to mention the fact that this ending was : effectively the exact same as last issue! : : As in my last review, still WANT Moon Knight : to succeed as a title! However, there seemed : too much lack of clarity - on the other hand : my presumptions may be erroneous. Despite : the frustration of this story, will : presumably get next issue. : : : : : Comment on BATO #5: : : Enter a caption contest: : : : :
