Marvel Fanfare # 38


Marvel Fanfare (1982-1992) #38

In this Fanfare, the various identities of Moon Knight must prevent a boy band’s throng of groupies from losing their souls. In a twist on 'Portrait of Dorian Gray', an Aztec totem is the key behind the seemingly endless fountain of youth that surrounds this mysterious band. It’s a great tale, but hard to keep straight. I know Moon Knight has like 10 other personas and I couldn’t tell if he’s having a sort of Tyler Durdan moment where he’s talking with folks who aren’t really there or is he?
The follow-up story involved Rogue and Dazzler enjoying a night on the town, only to have it ruined by a group of hostage takers. This story was pretty simple, straight-forward, and guilty pleasure fun. The art was very late 80s glamour deco and it read a little like a Scorsesse movie in sequential art form.

Worth Consuming.

Rating: 8 out of 10 stars.
