Shadowland: Moon Knight (Shadowland: Moon Knight (2010)) Kindle & comiXology
Who is the Shadow Knight? Daredevil, the former defender of Hell's Kitchen turned leader of the ninja death cult known as the Hand, summons the villainous Profile to take Moon Knight out of the picture for good. To complete his objective, the Profile enlists the aid of a mysterious figure — a second avatar of Khonshu, the Shadow Knight! Displeased with Moon Knight's new, less deadly methods, has Khonshu finally decided to replace Moon Knight to get the blood he requires? With the Shadow Knight hunting him, Moon Knight must cling to his sanity if he hopes to save Daredevil and himself from the darkness of Shadowland! Plus: the classic first meeting of Moon Knight and Daredevil

The storyline attempts to wrap up a dangling plot thread from Hurwitz' Vengeance Of The Moon Knight, but the result only muddies Moon Knight's canon even further. Hurwitz not only foregoes any kind of subtlety in his writing, he also pretty much ignores much of our hero's past continuity. He also can't seem to keep up with the events of the main Shadowland series either, since there are a few glaring inconsistencies between both titles. These gaps make Shadowland: Moon Knight feel like even more of a forced tie-in than it already is; like Marvel was trying way too hard to include all of their street-level heroes in this event. Very few of them left much of an impact, and Moon Knight left almost none at all.
And there's a cheap MacGuffin subplot for good measure.
If you're looking for strong female characters in comics....well, keep on looking. Moon Knight's longtime plot device/girlfriend (or wife as he calls her at one point...dunno when that happened) reaches all new levels of worthlessness. She gets bitten by the Women In Refrigerators bug really badly.
The only reason Shadowland: Moon Knight gets another star is because of Bong Dazo's passable pencilwork and Jose Pimental's great inking. It gets a little too busy at times, but overall it works.
This book is strictly for Moon Knight and/or Shadowland completists. Everyone else interested in Moon Knight should check out the incredible Doug Moench/Don Perlin/Bill Sienkiewicz stories from the 70s and 80s, Bruce Jones' Divided We Fall special, and Charlie Huston's amazing take on the character from 2006. Those interested in the better Shadowland titles should stick with the Daredevil, Thunderbolts, and Blood On The Streets tie-ins.
Something something about Daredevil, something something about Shadow Knight something something about Moon Knight.
My first Moon Knight graphic novel. This may not have been the best way to go about it. However, comics are so convoluted it’s hard to know where to start with them all. Anyway, it’s a bit confusing, but I think I managed the gist of it. Except for why Daredevil was even in this. I wasn’t all that impressed. Not crazy about the artwork either. I was left feeling very meh at the end.

I really have to hand it to Gregg Hurwitz here for getting across everything that is brilliant about Moon Knight in just 2 issues while telling a completely new and immersive story and at no point does it feel rushed or forced. Along with this volume containg an origin story and the added bonus of Moon Knight 13: The Cream of the Jest, when Moon Knight and DareDevil first meet, i have to say this is a must buy whether you are a Moon Knight fan, new to the character or even new to comics!
