Vengeance of the Moon Knight #8 will mark the end of the current Moon Knight run, making way for the Moon Knight: Fist of Konshu series, billed by Marvel as the continuation of MacKay and Cappuccio's Moon Knight run, which began in 2021 and extends across multiple volumes and titles.
Moon Knight: Fist of Konshu's description reads, "FULL MOON RISING! As an avatar and agent of the Egyptian God of the Moon, Khonshu, former mercenary Marc Spector has died and comes back to life on more than one occasion. To the ignorant, his fate beyond death’s grasp may seem idyllic, but being chosen as a fist of Khonshu comes with a heavy cost! And, like bones in a street fight, Marc Spector, and the multitudes he contains, may be about to break!"
Marvel Comics unveils a special first-look preview of the upcoming Avengers #17, featuring the iconic mutant, Storm.

I'm excited to explore how he deals with all-new threats to his territory with fellow Midnight Missionaries Alessandro Cappuccio, Rachelle Rosenberg, and Devmalya Pramanik. Moon Knight: Fist of Konshu #1 marks the 40th issue of our time with Moon Knight- and we’ve got plenty more that we’re looking forward to sharing with you," MacKay added.
