: Batman tribute/parody aside, this is a cool
: cover. The cape harkens back to old school
: Moon Knight.

: Kevin, where did you find this?

: Ok, so these saga freebies they put out are
: usually text summaries with a couple
: pictures of previous events to get new
: readers up to speed. The writing quality
: will be largely informative and very dense
: if the Daredevil Saga, Wolverine Saga, New
: Mutants Saga, and the Your Universe freebie
: are anything to go by. For example, the
: Wolverine floppy took me a couple days to
: trudge through because of its sheer density.
: This release isn't going to be something
: wildly entertaining, but I'll be sure to
: pick up a copy or two because it will be a
: great little summary to throw in the old MK
: collection. I'm going to go out on a limb
: and predict it will summarize volume 4,
: being the most recent continuity, though it
: might span the entire series as this is
: usually the forum they use to pick and
: choose what parts of the story gets to stay
: in the continuity. (See the wolverine saga:
: many parts of the complete
: "history" that are contradictory
: were removed and streamlined) Unless Marvel
: is coming out with some premier hardcovers,
: this definitely means something new is
: coming out. Color me excited, both of the
: series I regularly buy (MK and t-bolts) seem
: to be pulling themselves out of the gutter.
: I'd love to see Brubaker, Millar, or one of
: the big guns, because John Rhett Thomas is
: for sure not the new Moon Knight writer. (he
: writes Marvel Spotlight and Saga books)

: It is odd that it's free though, I wonder
: what's up their sleeve? Mayber he'll be an
: Avenger again. Ha!

: It is possible that this is only a mini
: series? Either way, I'm excited.

: Sweet! I hope they continue w/ 31!
: Since its a free issue, however, does that
: mean anything? like will the quality of the
: writing be lesser-than-usual?

: Looks like Moon Knight is getting a
: relaunch.

: MOON KNIGHT SAGA
: Written by JOHN RHETT THOMAS
: Cover by ALAN DAVIS
: Who is Moon Knight? He is many things to
: many people -- many things even to himself.
: One day, he is Marc Spector, a former Marine
: turned mercenary. The next, Steven Grant,
: millionaire businessman. Then perhaps Jake
: Lockley, street-smart cabbie. But uniting
: all these personalities is a single identity
: as the avenging son of the dreaded god
: Khonshu. He is the scourge of the criminal
: element, foe to a richly developed rogues
: gallery. His life has been filled with
: violence, tragedy and, sometimes,
: redemption. This is the saga of the Moon
: Knight.
: 32 PGS./Rated T+...FREE!
:
: With this solicitation, Marvel must be
: prepping for a relaunch for Moon Knight. I
: wonder if it will start with a new #1 or
: continue with #31? I guess we will have to
: wait until next month. With the convention
: season starting, they might be waiting to
: make some announcement then. I'm hoping it's
: Brubaker, especially since he left
: Daredevil.
