Marc Spector: Moon Knight #41
In "The Dark Doppelgangers Descend," Moon Knight finds himself in the middle of a chaotic clash at Four Freedoms Plaza when Daredevil's accusation against Mr. Fantastic ignites a superhero brawl. After the dust settles, Moon Knight and his Earthbound allies are ambushed by sinister doppelgangers sent by the Magus—leading to a harrowing confrontation where Moon Knight must face a twisted reflection of himself, one that begins absorbing other versions of Moon Knight across dimensions and evolving into the entity known as Moon Shade. Written by Terry Kavanagh and illustrated by Gary Kwapisz, with inks by Tom Palmer, colors by Mike Thomas, and letters by Ken Lopez, this 1992 issue features a cover by Kwapisz and Palmer that captures the eerie intensity of the moment.
