Xtinction Agenda

Xtinction Agenda isn"t for everyone. It"s a book club and a movie club and a place for people to talk TV and comic books. But nothing too new. It"s a rough place where tired old dads tackle pop culture artifacts of the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s (mostly). Not a lot of hand-holding as a consequence. These are not introductions to pop culture but discussions about it. As such, we expect the audience to have some degree of experience. Basically then, if you"re a hotdog and you"re looking for a mustache

Doug Moench - Moon Knight #24-25 (1982)

Xtinction Agenda ·

2021/07/10

Chris and James get back to what is important: Doug Moench. It's been a while, so we thought that we'd dip into one of Doug's signature works: Moon Knight. We find the usual mix of hilarious disappointment. What makes this time different, however, is the righteous art of Bill Sienkiewicz. That ain't bad. That ain't bad at aaall. "Over fifty bucks in his wallet and he wanted more?!"
