MK #30 Preview

"MOON KNIGHT #30! Hm. Things don't seem to be going very well, do they." -- Jed Mackay's Twitter

"Not going well" aka the story of Marc's life, really.

Obviously the preview doesn't really give away much of anything, other than a promise that Marc's going to be spending time crawling around on the floor, very bloody. A+ decision, Mackay and team. Give the people what they want!

(I ended up on Cappuccio's Insta and I was reminded just how many commissions he's had to MK + bloody. MK fandom is evidently united in really wanting to see Marc (specifically, apparently) a little bit filthy.)

Other thoughts: I do like the fact that over the years of the comics, Marc has very much been established as someone that's either spot-on with judging someone's character, or really, really shitty at it. It ties in so very nicely with his ability to make the absolute worst of decisions.

Kind of curious that, if Plesko's calling Marc a bloody-minded, unkillable creature (oooh, I wonder how that's going to tie in with Vengeance of the Moon Knight 2.0!), what Plesko would have made of Bushman. Obviously the inference is that Plesko never met or worked with Bushman, but potentially Plesko also found Marc more interesting in comparison because he does have more humanity and compassion to him than Bushman ever has — the same softness that Bushman commented (derogatory) on would, potentially to someone like Plesko, be more interesting to unravel in relation to the ability to commit awful atrocities than Raoul's relatively simple desire to be feared.

Asking for Input

Okay, so I have a little creative dilemma. I read through “Mother’s Little Helper” (7x07) and found that it’s completely incompatible with the direction Those ‘70s Comics has taken the characters. The episode is almost all filler, wrought with sexism, and portrays Red and Kitty in total opposition to how they’re depicted in S1-S4 and Those ‘70s Comics.

So do I skip the episode and move onto “Angie’ (7x08) because nothing story- or character-wise would be lost. (This is the easier option for me and probably better for the comics’ overall storytelling.)

Or do I attempt to take some elements from “Mother’s Little Helper” and write a totally new episode from essentially scratch (that, of course, continues the comics’ character-and-story development)?

I’ll ultimately make my own decision, but I’m basically asking, would you care if I skip “Mother’s Little Helper” in the comics? Or do you want me try to incorporate it into the series?

Supergirl searches for answers to Krypton’s mysteries in this exclusive

Following Brian Michael Bendis’ takeover of DC’s Superman line, the Supergirl ongoing series has been given a new direction courtesy of two of Bendis’ pals, writer Marc Andreyko and artist Kevin Maguire. New villain Rogol Zaar claims he is responsible for the destruction of Supergirl’s (and her cousin’s) home planet of Krypton, and Kara has taken to the stars to learn more about the mass murderer and why he would destroy an entire planet. Supergirl is on a cosmic mission of vengeance—a drastic shift from the previous run on this series, which brought Kara down to Earth to explore her relationship with humankind. Now Andreyko is giving readers Supergirl by way of Guardians Of The Galaxy, which becomes especially apparent when Kara meets a Star-Lord-esque new character in this week’s issue.
