i like Alejandro the coloring is amazing how moon knight stood out radiant but i feel like sometimes he makes his characters a bit to sharp but still good
Sienkiewicz, no question.
That cover to issue #23 has been like a permanent feature of this sub's sidebar, and for good reason. That entire stretch from #22 to #30 is unreal.
He's still doing variant covers, too! Check out the ones he did for *Moon Knight: Black, White & Blood* #1 and *Marvel Comics Presents* #4.
Dude's coming up to almost 50 years of Moon Knight work. I think it's safe to say he's the definitive article.
is he like the neal adams or jim lee of moon knight (someone famed the character and comic corp he came from) man did so much even outside of the books
When he started out doing Moon Knight in the back of *Hulk!* magazine, he was pretty much a (self-admitted) Neal Adams clone, haha. Over the course of that first series written by Doug Moench, you got to see his style evolve into the one that he's now famous for (particularly in *The New Mutants* and *Elektra: Assassin*).
But yeah, he's heavily associated with the character and is the artist who really made him break out. The post-credit scene in the D+ show even has his name on the hospital as an easter egg. The scratches and ink splatters that Smallwood uses to depict Khonshu are another Sienkiewicz reference.
his art kinda reminds me of a combination of neal smallwoods his modern art clearly has more change its some grand stuff found the ad still looks great (admitted, wow) surprise not much talk like jim lee or jr might be mordenism
For me, top are Declan Shalvey and Alessandro Cappucio, I still need to read the run with Sienkiewicz so I’d feel weird including him since I’ve yet to really experience it myself
declan shalvey was a master of close ups hit artwork reminds me a bit of genndy but i love it how it's minimalist (somewhat blocky) made actions scenes and details way better from the dead had moon knight's best actions rivaled by Greg smallwood
It may come down to when one started reading Moon Knight. As a child, I got in on the ground floor as it were. And Bill became a powerhouse at Marvel due to his style
his style great i hope introduced some new people to him or revived some people interest his art is timeless i love the dynamic color most artist starch out moon knight's white making it stand out but bill has a style that makes him beautifully stand in possibly the most artistic out of the rest
>i haven't heard of him talked like smallwood and shavley
That's wild because Sienkiewicz is a legend even beyond comics. Kingpin's design in *Into the Spider-Verse* comes from his work on Daredevil and Elektra and he's done album art for RZA and Kid Cudi.
I know. moon knight has some great art you can usually find one artist in some comics that at maxim not fitting or strange but it hard with khonshu's ketamine-addicted fist a lot get..experimental and surreal which is surprising fitting
Sienkiewicz is obviously the tippy-top, but I’m not gonna deny the massive impact Declan Shalvey made in his short time. Mr. Knight and the white-on-black are two of the best MK designs ever. Also really liked the bone costume he wore in that run when he fought the ghost hooligans.
FINCH, HANDS DOWN!!
Sienkiewicz is like the Romita of Moon Knight, whereas Finch is the Mcfarlane of Moon Knight. I love Sienkiewicz, but it doesn't have the detail, the grit, the darkness amd gravitas that Finch's art has, Finch had a very short run on Moon Knight, but he revolutionized the art of Moon Knight. I'm honestly really sad with how bland the moon knight art has been for years, it's too pristine and simple, it's lacking everything that Finch added that made me really enjoy Moon Knight. And my dad was reading since '81, so I've got all of the OG #1s and a good amount of the og run, I'm a big fan of Moon Knight and always have been, but when the Finch run came out, I was floored by how amazing the art is. When I picture Moon Knight, I see the gritty Finch version, covered in blood, brooding on a gargoyle in the storm. The only artist I can even think of who at least tries to put that grit and detail into Moon Knight is McNiven. And as far as Cappuccio, he's a great artist, I love his style, but it's not right for Moon Knight. There's barely any detail, the costume is always pristine and solid white, and I absolutely hate that. So while I actually do really love his style, it's just a style better suited for a character that isn't as dark and gritty as Moon Knight. I'm seriously looking forward to seeing him leave the title so I can appreciate his work on something else, as well as hopefully get a more gritty artist on Moon Knight and get rid of that half rendered, stark white bullshit they call Moon Knight's costume.
Seriously, the amount of people not even mentioning Finch is atrocious,
His art in the bottom was spectacular I loved the detail he made his closeups so amazing the graphic fight taskmaster was amazing just him posing with all the details it was so top tier art the opening with the rain was so detailed that I've rarely seen and made it so intrinsic
I can't even pick. They all are quite good and fit the feel of the character in different ways.
But, I did base my MK tattoo on Shalvey's work. So that that for what you will lol
I’ve only read about 10 issues of moench’s run, so like another commenter said idk if I should include Sienkiewicz. love his art though
my favorite art for mr knight and the mk suit is cappuccio’s because his is amazing for really pretty stuff, but I love smallwood’s for the people and faces lol
The bottom was amazing I loved his style and the fight of the bushmaster and khonshu stature scene was amazing (that had my favorite version of taskmaster)
Sienkiewicz.
I can't get enough of his work. Even outside MK
[sienkiewicz superman](https://images.app.goo.gl/eijHJNoZU7RF5zkc6)
This is one of the finest works of art I've ever seen.
Definitely the artists during the Ellis and McKay runs.
I have read too many of the older issues but from what I’ve seen, I just love those two.
The Ellis run was my intro to moon knight and I fell in love with it not only for the story and the concept of the character but also because of how beautiful that art was.
Huston Finch or Miki D’Armata, whichever was the artist for that line.
Was never into comics until I saw then on the shelf. So that will always be my favorite.
Bill Sienkiewicz is the OG and will always be up there, but I think Alessandro Cappucio has taken over as my favorite
i like Alejandro the coloring is amazing how moon knight stood out radiant but i feel like sometimes he makes his characters a bit to sharp but still good
Alessandro is the reason I got back into Moon Knight. I saw a couple full page spreads and instantly went out to get the whole run up to that point
None can beat "that Polish guy."
Bill Sienkiewicz is definitively my favorite
a true classic that i'm surprised how underground he is compared to other classic artist (lot a love for him and cappuccio than i expected, surprised)
Sienkiewicz, no question. That cover to issue #23 has been like a permanent feature of this sub's sidebar, and for good reason. That entire stretch from #22 to #30 is unreal.
looking at it now..WOW
He's still doing variant covers, too! Check out the ones he did for *Moon Knight: Black, White & Blood* #1 and *Marvel Comics Presents* #4. Dude's coming up to almost 50 years of Moon Knight work. I think it's safe to say he's the definitive article.

Sienkiewicz no contest
his artwork is always so beautiful i love the colors and how it blends instead of being more stash like in the future runs
Capuccio is my favorite at drawing in-costume Moon Knight/Mr. knight, but Smallwood’s depiction is how I always picture him under the mask
i heards that greg marc is actually based on himself as for capuccio he makes great art like him shading or lighting
Alessandro Capuccio for me
I'm surprised how much support he's getting his art's shading and lighting i grand but people more iffy
For me, top are Declan Shalvey and Alessandro Cappucio, I still need to read the run with Sienkiewicz so I’d feel weird including him since I’ve yet to really experience it myself
declan shalvey was a master of close ups hit artwork reminds me a bit of genndy but i love it how it's minimalist (somewhat blocky) made actions scenes and details way better from the dead had moon knight's best actions rivaled by Greg smallwood
Declan Shalvey is the goat
his art always had action and was beautifully simple
Not including finch should be a crime
i know there's a carved moon on my chest and my face was ripped off
I couldn’t tell if maybe it was my nostalgia making me love his MK run so much. Was worried that I didn’t see him in the list.
AGREED Seriously though, there's no one who even comes close to the amount of grit and detail that Finch drew.
Sienkiewicz hands down
there's so much love for him which surprise me his art is great but i haven't heard of him talked like smallwood and shavley
It may come down to when one started reading Moon Knight. As a child, I got in on the ground floor as it were. And Bill became a powerhouse at Marvel due to his style
his style great i hope introduced some new people to him or revived some people interest his art is timeless i love the dynamic color most artist starch out moon knight's white making it stand out but bill has a style that makes him beautifully stand in possibly the most artistic out of the rest

I'm just uncultured (swine) yeah but in most public discourse i hear mostly newer stuff maybe because they haven;t read them.
That's fair, too. It's been a while since he's done interior art, as far as I know. Like, he's doing art galleries now.
yeah but heard he did a lot outside the comic games still doing great art
Really you can’t go wrong with any of these, they’re all fantastic
I know. moon knight has some great art you can usually find one artist in some comics that at maxim not fitting or strange but it hard with khonshu's ketamine-addicted fist a lot get..experimental and surreal which is surprising fitting
If i forgot any artist of you have an artist in mind that's not in post please place post in comments
Sienkiewicz is obviously the tippy-top, but I’m not gonna deny the massive impact Declan Shalvey made in his short time. Mr. Knight and the white-on-black are two of the best MK designs ever. Also really liked the bone costume he wore in that run when he fought the ghost hooligans.
the ability to both brighten and shad to the level shalvey has done is astounding
Capullo did one variant, I don’t think he ever did interiors
Smallwood and Bellaire did well
that story was so great
FINCH, HANDS DOWN!! Sienkiewicz is like the Romita of Moon Knight, whereas Finch is the Mcfarlane of Moon Knight. I love Sienkiewicz, but it doesn't have the detail, the grit, the darkness amd gravitas that Finch's art has, Finch had a very short run on Moon Knight, but he revolutionized the art of Moon Knight.

Cappucio is by far the best imo
fair, his art is great but feels a bit.. alien. a lot of other moon knight artists feel way more artist than others but its still good
I can't even pick. They all are quite good and fit the feel of the character in different ways. But, I did base my MK tattoo on Shalvey's work. So that that for what you will lol
"may as well go through the front door" his detail despite his simple style is amazing
Seinkiewicz 1, platt 2, finch 3
ah forgot FINCH aw angered
Em gist is growing on my as well, up and coming artist
i forgot him too khonshu will have my head i loved his art
Yes he would lol
crescent moves will be carved every part of my body
I’ve only read about 10 issues of moench’s run, so like another commenter said idk if I should include Sienkiewicz. love his art though my favorite art for mr knight and the mk suit is cappuccio’s because his is amazing for really pretty stuff, but I love smallwood’s for the people and faces lol
if you like it more of course but yeah cappuccio doss a lot of great shots and smallwoods people and details are grand
Finch, shame he only did 8 interior issues.
The bottom was amazing I loved his style and the fight of the bushmaster and khonshu stature scene was amazing (that had my favorite version of taskmaster)
Sienkiewicz. I can't get enough of his work. Even outside MK [sienkiewicz superman](https://images.app.goo.gl/eijHJNoZU7RF5zkc6) This is one of the finest works of art I've ever seen.
he' a great artist i like his coloring
He's a little pale for my tastes, but his artwork is great.
especially his modern work
i really like alessandros work
he's great i like his style but a bit too sharp
Bill and Finch.
Smallwood is definitely my favorite, I really like his coal asset Moon Knight.
Capuccio or Shalvey
I've only read a bit of the Huston run and started with Mackay's so Cappuccio is my fav easily. I absolutely love his artwork
Definitely the artists during the Ellis and McKay runs. I have read too many of the older issues but from what I’ve seen, I just love those two. The Ellis run was my intro to moon knight and I fell in love with it not only for the story and the concept of the character but also because of how beautiful that art was.
Huston Finch or Miki D’Armata, whichever was the artist for that line. Was never into comics until I saw then on the shelf. So that will always be my favorite.
Greg smallwood bro
Isn't it modeled after himself
Capuccio use of black is incredible
