"No matter who you are, we're all haunted in our own way." Still in the City of the Dead, Moon Knight meets his long-lost love, Layla Al-Faouly, now the Scarlet Scarab, protector of the city of the dead. Together they discover and rescue the other child victims of the Sons of the Jackal, but in the end, Marc must face his enemies alone. There was also a very sweet tribute to the late John Romita, Sr.

Creo que sí que hay un curioso potencial en plantear la tierra de los muertos egipcios como otra "ciudad del crimen" en la que Marc pueda desenvolverse con más potenciales sobrenaturales... Pero a no ser qué se descubra un plan más interesante del villano enmascarado (que en la última página se revela ante el héroe), esta no resulta una miniserie más interesante que dar salida al rol superheroíco de Layla de la serie de Disney+ (es que han CALCADO hasta a Tauret). Aunque a lo mejor en el próximo enlazan bien el hecho de tener a más villanos de tercera que buscan una revancha de ultratumba contra Moon Knight al tener en cuenta los métodos más extremos de este personaje que bastante de la comunidad heroica callejera de Marvel.

Me since last issue: This feels like a throwback and I don't know how to feel about that.
Me when they bring Randall back: .........this is definitely throwback....

The whole issue is great and I love the way the mystery is unravelling, but those last 5 pages especially made my jaw drop
