Moon Knight #8 Sienkiewicz CGC Copy On Auction At Heritage Auctions
Moon Knight is really starting to make a ton of noise in the back issue market, and as people are being priced out of the big ones like Werewolf By Night # 32 and his early solo series issues, collectors are starting to move on to key covers and such. One of those is Moon Knight #8 from 1981. This is the era that saw Bill Sienkiewicz on art and one of the more underrated runs in the character's history. Taking bids right now at Heritage Auctions is one of the highest-graded copies of that book, a 9.6. The census at CGC only has 13 copies graded higher. Currently sitting at only $62, you can bet this one is going to shoot up higher. There are several other issues from this Moon Knight series up for auction today as well. Check out the Moon Knight goodness below.
