Moon Knight’s nemesis from the smash hit Disney+ series makes her comics debut!

When a young runaway is attacked by a gang of death cultists, he is left barely alive outside Moon Knight’s HQ, the Midnight Mission. But Marc Spector made a vow long ago to defend the travelers of the dark as Moon Knight…and as long as a spark of life remains, his mission isn’t over yet. Follow Moon Knight on his most harrowing adventure yet, as he journeys far beyond the land of the living — and battles across the mind-bending underworld known as the City of the Dead! There, he must grapple with his past when he turns to an unlikely source for aid — Layla El-Fouly, A.K.A. the Scarlet Scarab! But when Marc is faced with a murderers’ row of dead super villains whom he helped put in the ground, can even the Fist of Khonshu defy the odds long enough to survive?
