Also, I think War Machine may be the more likely death of the two of them considering his series was just cancelled.

: I'm not saying I definitively believe Marc is
: dying. I'm just making wild leaps of the
: imagination.
:
: The way I see it, Marvel has given Moon
: Knight a few years and multiple titles to
: become a breakout star in their universe.
: For whatever reasons, that hasn't really
: happened. True, he's been making a lot of
: good cameos in other books, but I think
: that's more a byproduct of Marvel pushing
: the character to increase recognition than
: it is a result of popularity. I hope I'm
: wrong about that.
:
: Anyway, it isn't entirely out of the
: question that Moon Knight's little run with
: Ultron is really just a prelude to Bendis'
: upcoming Age of Ultron or the Secret
: Avengers upcoming story arc involving
: Adaptoids and other robotic threats. If
: that's the case, Moon Knight could be killed
: as a way to both end Marvel's MK pitch and
: usher in the new storylines. Once again,
: this is nothing I'm absolutely convinced is
: happening. They're just thoughts bouncing
: around in my brain. For instance, I've a
: thought that Echo might temporarily fill in
: for Marc if he dies or gets injured. She's
: got the ability to mimic his fighting styles
: and it wouldn't be the first time she's worn
: tights. I don't really see that happening
: either, but it's a thought.
:
: As to whether or not Marc would come back
: from being dead, I'm aware that's kind of
: his schtick. However, I'm concerned that if
: he does die, it will end the series. Marvel
: might revive the character, but that doesn't
: mean they'll revive the book.
:
: Whatever happens, it's nice to have a
: conversation about it with people who seem
: to really like the character.

: I don't think Moon Knight is going to be
: killed off in issue #9.
:
: Don't read too much into the missing picture
: from the cover of an upcoming Secret
: Avengers comic. The Secret Avengers have
: been been shown as guest stars in other
: books (Avengers titles, Hulk, Fear Itself).
: Sometimes Moon Knight is shown on the cover
: of the issue and sometimes he isn't. On a
: couple of occasions, Moon Knight has been
: shown with the other Secret Avengers on the
: cover of a comic and then not even appeared
: in the comic itself. The Secret Avengers are
: a dynamic team. The character appearances
: are selected based on the mission, and not
: every member is needed for every situation.
:
: If you look at that cover again, War Machine
: is not on the cover either. And I wouldn't
: draw the conclusion that War Machine would
: be dead or off the team either.

: Bendis and Bagely have a new book out
: BRILLIANT doubt he will be putting much
: effort into MK now! Now that bendis has
: taken MK in a direction with avengers as his
: alter egos I think its to late for someone
: to bring MK back to where he belongs with
: Jake-Mac-Steven without another reboot. In
: essence he has pretty much cut off any
: different direction for another writer to
: go.Only conclusion is to take him out with a
: bang!Hope I'm wrong.

: (sorry - that was not super-clear. It could
: be Marc who dies in the MK series and maybe
: someone else will take up the mantle. But
: taking MK out of SA may or may not be
: significant because they're not doing too
: much with him. In fact, his appearance in
: Dark Wolverine was cooler, in my view, than
: almost anything he's done in SA)

: Well, who could die? Buck, Marlene, Echo or
: Marc. I don't think there's another
: character in there who matters unless it's
: one of Marc's voices. It could be Marc, but
: if we're honest they're not using him well
: at all in Secret Avengers, so his
: disappearance won't matter much. In fact,
: apart from Steve, none of them matter. It
: also crossed my mind that maybe someone else
: will take up the mantle if Marc dies.
:
: I think this series is really growing and
: I'm just hoping it picks up some new readers
: so that it gets some longevity.

: I sincerely hope not... I just read issue #7
: and (overall) it was decidedly quite
: enjoyable. Please don't cancel the series...
: It's just starting to grow on me!
:
: I haven't been reading Secret Avengers
: really anyway since the conclusion of the
: first arc. It didn't feature MK enough, and
: I am a poor college student and can't afford
: the luxury of reading a series simply for
: cameo appearances.

: A proposed cover to Secret Avengers #23
: featuring new members Venom, Hawkeye and
: Giant Man with no sign of Moon Knight.
: Marvel's press release for the issue also
: mentions a death in the team. Considering a
: death is scheduled for MK #9, is this
: foretelling of Moon Knight's demise?
