Rating: - Great Essentials book
This book is full of great writing by Moench, and great art from a couple of burgeoning artists. In MK Vol.2, we get to experience the beginning of Bill Sienkiewicz's career.

Rating: - Essential Moon Knight Volume 2
For fans of Moon Knight.... revel in the Lunar Crusader is at his best. For people who haven't heard of, or haven't read, Moon Knight before you should like it. It shows why Moon Knight is Marvel Comics' Batman. An excellent read and safe for children seven years old and up. Moon Knight has been one of my favorite characters since I was a child.

Rating: - Moon Knight is the Best

Rating: - Some of Moench and Sienkewicz's best work.
Although some of the stories in this volume have not aged all that well, the series really peaked with the last several of the Doug Moench/Bill Sienkewicz issues. When they were on a roll, it was one of the best titles Marvel was publishing at that time. Although the black-and-white reprints lose some of the magic these stories originally had in color, the Essential series is a cheap way to read them all in one volume.
- Some of Moench and Sienkewicz's best work.
