You know, I had never read Moon Knight in its previous
incarnations and I had no trouble following the new Huston
story. I'm really digging it. The backstory is deftly woven
in. Those very familiar with MK's past probably know much
more than I do, but I know just enough for the present
story's purpose. That's sometimes a tough order to fill, but
Huston and the artists do it damn well. My only caveat is
that individual issues are so short that a little story is
spread over several months. I would have been much happier to
read it in one collected format. Too late now, though, as I'm
too hooked to wait.
