Tex Coming to Moon Knight!

Moon Knight has always been one of my favorite characters and is one of the few titles to which I faithfully subscribe (along with Daredevil, the Power Pack and 30 Days of Night minis, and a few others). Mark Texeria is one of my all-time favorite artists, even though I never dug Ghost Rider. Now, Tex is coming to Moon Knight and a whole new era is about to begin. I know - I hate that phrase now; they use it constantly for everything in comicdom. Anyway, this here's an official Marvel press release:

He’s defeated his greatest enemies. He’s survived Civil War and joined the Initiative. But now that he’s leaving piles of broken bodies in his wake, Moon Knight is about to become a marked man in Moon Knight #14! Award-winning television scribe Mike Benson (Punisher MAX Annual 2007, HBO’s Entourage) takes over the writing reins with co-plotter Charlie Huston and the fan favorite art team of Mark Texeira & Javier Saltares (Ghost Rider) to usher in a bold new era for everyone’s favorite dark avenger! Tony Stark, AKA Iron Man, created the Initiative to show what good super heroes can do when run by a governing body—so just what does he do with the poster child for super-powered irresponsibility? The shocking first chapter of “God & Country” sets Moon Knight down a path of no return—with hidden foes plotting his downfall!

“Marc Spector is a broken man,” explained Benson. “He's unpredictable. Nothing comes easy to him. He's an underdog and he's not afraid to fight dirty to get what he wants. I'm a fan of the character and I'm trying to write what I would like to see as a fan -- cool dialogue, hardcore fight sequences and good conflict. I have this wonderful opportunity to play in the Marvel Universe and I want to make the most of it.”

With the return of an old foe on the horizon—one sure to put a smile on the faces of Moon Knight fans—and an imminent confrontation with Tony Stark, this is your chance to get on board “God & Country,” a startling new direction for one of 2007’s most popular vigilantes in Moon Knight #14!
