Just in case you needed slightly more evidence that Moon Knight is well and truly off the deep end, Moon Knight #6 brings you the fight that proved to the vigilante that he was out of order, starring one of the most gruesome unmaskings of all time, where he 'unmasks' Bushmaster by ripping his face off.

It's exactly as brutal and awful as the description suggests, and made worse by the fact that, halfway through, Moon Knight appears to realise how wrong what he's doing is, but still carries through until the nightmarish deed is done.

The event serves to mess Spector's psyche up even further, with him hallucinating the skinless Bushmaster as his continual companion. The imaginary gore-fest friend, while unnerving, does send the vigilante a healthy reminder that he might be going too far though, so at least there's some form of silver lining to the gruesome event.

I like my comics like I like my coffee - in huge, unquestionably unhealthy doses.
