Moon Knight’s First Adventures Collected in ‘Moon Knight: Bad Moon Rising’ Epic Collection

With Oscar Issac’s recent confirmation that he will be donning the white cowl and cape of Marvel’s Moon Knight for an upcoming Disney+ series, attention is once again on back issues of what was once one of Marvel’s cult comic heroes.

All the added attention and speculation has caused Moon Knight’s first appearances and the start of his first on-going series to skyrocket, so luckily Marvel is providing those who have always loved the psychologically complex Avenger and those who want to know more about him with a cost-effective way to enjoy his original comics.
