I've never read Moon Knight titles before, and was somewhat apprehensive about starting them due to Marvel's unfortunate history of severely misunderstanding the nature of mental illness. However I was pleasantly surprised to see that Marc's supposed dissociative identity disorder was explained to be a misdiagnosis, since one cannot simply 'catch' a disorder based upon childhood trauma.
I enjoyed many other aspects of the comic as well. The art was striking, and made use of vast color contrast along with creepy imagery to create pictures able to stick in one's memory. Moon Knight's power and confidence nearly radiated off the page.
My only significant criticism is that I would have liked for the volume to feel less episodic. Many of the issues were unsettlingly interesting and I believe they could have been expanded upon further in order to create more rewarding conclusions.
