Moon Knight #4

Perched atop an ornate rooftop gargoyle-like column against a vast, fiery orange sky, Moon Knight crouches in his dark tactical suit with the full moon blazing behind him — a striking image that captures the brooding, city-guardian energy Bendis and Maleev were channeling in their 2011 run. Alex Maleev's painterly cover work gives the scene an almost watercolor atmosphere, blending moody architectural detail with that warm, glowing lunar backdrop. Issue #4 arrives right in the heart of this creative team's collaboration, and covers like this one make a strong case for why their take on the character resonated so well.
