Moon Knight: Reincarnations Review



Finished reading Moon Knight: Reincarnations, continuing writer Jeff Lemire's run on character as Moon Knight finds each of his personalities at odds with one another due to each personally's perception to the world. The book opens with the production of Moon Knight the newest film that is being produced by Steven Grant, meanwhile Jake Lockley is on the city streets trying to come to terms with what has previously happen in the series only to find himself caught in the middle of a murder case. This is also juxtapose by Marc Spector finding himself fighting alien werewolves how have invaded Earth and the human race lass line of defence is their base on the moon. The second story within the book is a classic Moon Knight story where he finds himself investigating a series of murders of the homeless by a killer who has been named the Slasher. Overall this was a great as Jeff Lemire tells a mind bending story that gives Moon Knight's multiple personalities their own spotlight as each of the situations the personalities find themselves become intertwined and lead to a intriguing direction. The art throughout is amazing as each art team is able to bring each aspect of Moon Knight's psyche to life thanks to the way the different art styles and colour palettes work with one another, while also feeling very cohesive thanks to how well the book transitions between each art team. 8.5/10.
