I am really disappointed with this series. Seeing people rate it so high makes me sick. Don't get fooled just because this is written by a good writer. Warren Ellis really did not his best here. Why is this Issue so bad? Half of the comic is set up for the bad guy... we get dialog from people who are not relevant to the overall plot[because there is none, every issue was pretty self contained] and die half way through this book. One or two pages would be enough for that but no, half of the comic is just set up. Also there is a lot and i mean a lot of blank space. There even is one page that has only one image, the rest is entirely blank. I'm not kidding, you pay 4 bucks for this. The other half of the book doesn't have much dialog. We get a decent action scene with Moon Knight and the Sniper, who killed the people. That's it. 4 bucks for this. This is unacceptable. We don't learn anything about Moon Knight and since this Issue is self contained you don't even need to read it. Not every series has to work in arcs but if you have self contained one issue stories make them interesting by themself and ad something to the series overall. Moon Knight #2 doesn't do that. It's filler... that is all that it is. A filler issue. I could get over this if this wasn't ISSUE 2. Such a lame filler issue basically at the start of a series is just unacceptable. I was really hyped for this series, because i heard good things about Warren Ellis and Moon Knight seemed quite interesting, but it stops here for me. I'm not going to pay 4 dollars for something like this and neither should you.
I had to drop the score from 2 to 1 because it just pissed me off. This issue is offensive. It is just a waste of time. There is no real Moon Knight in this Issue, you could put anybody in there and the only thing that would change is the brief fight scene. Hell you could put Batman in this Issue instead and it would play out the same. The worst issue i have ever read.
