: I don't think Moon Knight's continuity is
: cluttered at all. His origin is pretty
: simple and to the point. His Multiple
: Personality Disorder might be the reason for
: some clutter and that could be reworked with
: great results I think.
:
: I would love to see Marvel cut this back to
: $2.99 Bendis does not deserve $3.50 for this
: Avengers tie in vaguely masquerading as an
: MK. Thankfully, pre-ordering allows me to
: give Marvel the price they deserve for this
: book. If I didn't love the character as much
: as I do, I'd avoid this at all costs, but I
: don't want to give up on MK like I have
: Green Arrow and Wolverine.

: Call me crazy, but I sort of wish Marvel
: would
: do
: Something similar to what DC's done, along
: the
: lines of a relaunch. It could clear up a lot
: of
: Mk's cluttered continuity (and I'm sure
: other
: characters have it worse) and provide a nice
: jumping on point for moon knight. I at least
: wish
: they could lower the price down to 2.99

: One thing to keep in mind about sales
: figures
: right now is what DC has recently done in
: their company-wide relaunch.
:
: I think that almost all of DCs books are
: having a temporary surge in sales that
: normally would not be happening in any other
: year. This is pushing many of the non-X-Men
: and non-Avengers books down further on the
: list. Right now, there are 40 DC books
: ranked higher than Moon Knight, which I
: seriously doubt would happen under normal
: circumstances. Moon Knight came in at #83,
: but I would have expected a top 50 ranking
: in most other situations. If you look at all
: of the books - even Iron Man, X-Men, and
: Wolverine failed to crack the top 50. When
: was the last time that happened?
:
: My hope is that Marvel takes the DC relaunch
: into consideration with their titles sales
: figures and looks at how their books are
: selling amongst all the other Marvel books,
: not just the entire list right now.

: I've read some industry types say basing
: what
: gets canceled on Comic Sales Numbers is
: terrible for comics, and I'd have to agree.
: MK might not ever be in the Top 10, but it
: would really suck if they cancel what could
: be a consistent earner.
:
: I checked one Comic Sales chart (this one I
: think) that shows Moon Knight might not be
: selling huge numbers, but it's often selling
: more than some books I doubt they'll ever
: cancel (I'm looking at you, Deadpool, you
: twat.)
:
: Moon Knight could be a book that brings
: Marvel guaranteed sales if not big sales if
: they let it go for awhile and see where the
: numbers stabilize.
