BARE BONES (Written by Rey): 

Nonchalantly, Mr. Knight walks into the Bar with No Name, intent on finding our more about Zodiac – the villain who has been playing a cat and mouse game. Announcing his unpredictability to the bar full of villains, Moon Knight leaves with not much to gain for. It’s not until 8-Ball leaves the bar that Mr. Knight, Reese and Tigra corner him in an alleyway, pressing him for more information.

Moon Knight takes 8-Ball to an old car yard where a car shredder proves to be ample motivation to reveal at least one name for both Moon Knight and Soldier (an ally and friend of the hero). Manslaughter Marsdale is named by 8-Ball and he is then targeted by the White knight, in the hope of getting closer to Zodiac.

Unbeknownst to Moon Knight, Tigra keeps a mysterious caller up to date with events, and reveals that she is keeping an eye on Moon Knight…but for as yet unknown reasons.

Elsewhere, a fight breaks out between Moon Knight and Marsdale – Marsdale, not able to feel pain, proves to be a tough opponent to beat. Moon Knight goes for the head but it all proves fruitless…Marsdale would rather die than snitch on Zodiac, whom he owes his life to.

Moon Knight and Tigra then visit The Clown (another accomplice of Zodiac that 8-Ball had revealed)…but they are too late…Zodiac has beaten them to it, and taken the head of The Clown to boot.

It’s revealed that Tigra has been contacting Black Panther in regards to keeping watch over Moon Knight, and in a thrilling cliffhanger, Dr Sterman returns home, only to be accosted by the appearance of Zodiac, with the head of The Clown..eager to use her in order to bring Moon Knight ‘back on track’…
