New York, NY— July 22, 2024 — In the early ‘90s, rising star artist Stephen Platt burst on the scene in Marc Spector: Moon Knight #55. The acclaimed artist turned this fan favorite book into one of the hottest comics on stands and his brief but impactful work on the title is fondly remembered by Moon Knight fans. This October, Platt is back just in time for Marc Spector’s grand return in MOON KNIGHT: FIST OF KHONSHU #1. Gracing the issue with a stunning variant cover, Platt’s new piece blends classic and modern as he depicts Moon Knight’s all-new costume in his unmistakable and iconic style!
MOON KNIGHT: FIST OF KHONSHU is the latest evolution of Jed MacKay and Alessandro Cappuccio’s run of Moon Knight. Like Platt, MacKay and Cappuccio’s bold reinvention of the character and the Moon Knight mythology have made it one of Marvel’s consistently best-selling titles. The new launch picks up after Marc Spector’s surprise return in Blood Hunt. He’s died and come back to life on more than one occasion. To the ignorant, his fate beyond death’s grasp may seem idyllic, but being chosen as a Fist of Khonshu comes with a heavy cost! And, like bones in a street fight, Marc Spector, and the multitudes he contains, may be about to break!
Check out Platt’s cover and preorder MOON KNIGHT: FIST OF KHONSHU #1 at your local comic shop today! For more information, visit Marvel.com.
