Moon Knight #24

Moon Knight #24 brings a striking Arthur Suydam cover to this 2009 Marvel series, depicting two figures locked in a brutal close-quarters struggle as a cascade of aces and spades playing cards explodes between them — one figure in dark tactical gear, the other a hulking, grotesque opponent with glowing eyes and decaying features. The card-wielding confrontation gives the image a tense, almost surreal quality that fits perfectly with the "Death of Marc Spector" arc unfolding inside. With Mike Benson writing and Mark Texeira on interior art, this chapter promises the gritty, hard-edged storytelling that has defined this run.
