This morning when I got up, I felt a great disturbance in the comic blogosphere, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.
As such, here is the solicit for “Moon Knight” #6:
MOON KNIGHT #6
Warren Ellis (W)
Declan Shalvey & JORDIE BELLAIRE (A/C)
• A threat from the first issue is back to cause problems for Moon Knight!
• This mysterious person is the new BLACK SPECTRE and it doesn’t mean anything good for the protector of night travelers.
• Don’t miss the conclusion of Warren Ellis, Declan Shalvey and Jordie Bellaire.
32 PGS./Rated T+ …$3.99
It’s a poorly worded solicit as it actually sounds like Ellis, Shalvey and Bellaire might be committing some kind of suicide pact, but it appears that in August their “Moon Knight” run is ending.
It’s actually not too big of a surprise as historically Ellis has launched a critically acclaimed new run on a series that has a great impact only to leave it after six issues. It would also explain why the cover we revealed for issue #6 is an inverse of issue #1. Never the less, it is a shame as “Moon Knight” is rather celebrated by many fans, and Shalvey and Bellaire working together on that book have literally made magic.
I can only hope that Ellis, Shalvey and Bellaire work together in some other capacity in the near future.
So. Who would you like to see take over “Moon Knight” in September?
