Marc Spector: Moon Knight - Scarlet Redemption
by J.M. DeMatteis
Holy shit was this good.
It's amazing because the first 25 issues of this Omnibus, Marc Spector, is mostly run of the mill superhero stuff. Nothing special, kind of the same old you expect from Chuck Dixon, but then in comes Dematteis and he decides to give the vibe of the 80's Moon Knight and bring back the tone of Doug's run, and it's so damn good.
Scarlet has returned and Moon Knight is connected to her on a spiritual level. They are even inside each others head. But soon into the book we can see Scarlet is trying to draw out the monster within Moon Knight despite Moon Knight trying to reign back in that darker side of him. The accumlation of this entire 5 part series and epilogue, makes for a haunting tale of superheroism and wanting to do what's right. A bitter end to characters, and a classic Moon Knight story IMO.
Overall, excellent stuff.
