CBR Review: Vengeance of the Moon Knight #9

I recently reviewed Vengeance of the Moon Knight #9 for CBR and, in the process, wrote the following sentences: "As a fan of his work for Avatar Press, news of Juan Jose Ryp doing some work for Marvel, beginning with Vengeance of the Moon Knight #9, caught my attention and made me give the book a look to see how Ryp’s style translates over to Marvel. After all, his work for Avatar has often had extreme violence, horrific images, nudity, and pretty much anything else that you can’t stick in a Marvel superhero book, even one that bears a ‘parental advisory' label. He has demonstrated himself capable of superhero art on Black Summer and No Hero with Warren Ellis, but how does he fare with Moon Knight teaming up with Spider-Man to take down the Sandman?"

CBR Review: Vengeance of the Moon Knight #7

I recently reviewed Vengeance of the Moon Knight #7 for CBR and, in the process, wrote the following sentences: "Deadpool’s purpose in the story isn’t clear beyond him acting as a reminder of what Moon Knight used to be, but without ever really saying that. I’m not one to criticize subtle storytelling, but when more time is spent on the boring, clichéd backstory of the comatose criminal than the contrast between Deadpool and Moon Knight, maybe it’s time to be a tad more obvious about the point of the story. And, if the point isn’t to contrast the differences between these two similar characters, but just to have a wacky killer appear in a straight-laced Batman-esque comic, I’m left wondering why I should care, because the execution is mediocre and dull."
