Moon Knight #9

Moon Knight in white suit and cape takes a point-blank gunshot from a dark-cloaked figure on what appears to be a rooftop grid — Frank Miller's cover art captures that split second with clean, forceful linework and an ominous tagline: "One minute ago Moon Knight was destroyed. He doesn't know it yet." Paired with Doug Moench's writing and Bill Sienkiewicz's interior art, issue #9 from 1981 delivers the kind of brooding, street-level tension that made this series stand out from Marvel's superhero crowd. A genuinely compelling package for fans of hard-edged storytelling.
