Marc Guggenheim Writes Moon Knight Like Memento
Marc Guggenheim has written about an upcoming Moon Knight story of his his Substack. He posted;
This past week also saw the announcement of a ten-page story for a new Moon Knight anthology series called MOON KNIGHT: BLACK, WHITE & BLOOD. Artist Jorge Fornés and I will have a 10-page story in the inaugural issue. Jorge has done a brilliant job with this story with art that gives me major David Mazzucchelli vibes. He (Jorge, not David) teased a panel on Twitter.
And I have to tell you that Jorge has the patience of a saint, because I didn't write just any story. The entire thing unfolds backwards à la MEMENTO. Quite frankly, it's a miracle Jorge didn't print out my script, roll it up, and beat me to death with it. To the contrary, his wonderful enthusiasm has been infectious. I'm really looking forward to you getting to check it out.
Moon Knight like Memento? The nice thing about a comic book is that you can read it in any order you wish. It's another reason why comics are better than film. Marc Guggenheim continued;
And the icing on the cake? The one and only Bill Sienkiewicz — seminal Moon Knight artist and industry legend — drew the cover for Issue One:
