It did not help that this story was the final arc of the book and ended with an abrupt death of Moon Knight himself in #60 (March, 1994), just as he was trying to get some answers. When he was mysteriously resurrected in 1998, he was unaware of what had happened to him and had seemingly forgotten the events leading to his death.

** A big reason for why the Max Bemis and Jacen Burrows run didn't succeed the way the last two runs did was in large part this. Even while they were RevisitingTheRoots and ignoring the popular SoftReboot runs Ellis and Lemire had written, there was a ''lot'' of changes from the older content. Notably, they changed Marc's split personalities' ''personalities''; beforehand, Marc Spector was explicitly the violent and self-destructive one, which made things difficult for Marc since that was his ''primary'' alter, while Jake Lockley was a working class rough-around-the-edges NiceGuy who, during a time where he was the primary alter, was depicted as a much more typical hero and TheAtoner for Marc's violence. Now for some reason, Jake was explicitly the AntiHero personality who had [[spoiler:forced Marlene into a loveless relationship after getting her pregnant and never telling Marc]], while Marc is written more like TheGenericGuy in comparison. It didn't help that the run also gave Marlene serious Chickification, retconning her into a DamselInDistress who Marc supposedly always had to save, rather than how she had previously been written as an ActionSurvivor CombatPragmatist who regularly pulled off DamselOutOfDistress, who was InLoveWithYourCarnage but aware of how self-destructive it was.

* NeverLiveItDown: Moon Knight has frequently interacted with other Avengers in relatively lighthearted adventures, and most of his stories are no more violent than any other Marvel superhero, yet the story where he carved off Bushman's face in self-defense is cited by some as the key reason that any adaptation of the character ''has'' to be R-rated in nature.

* GatewaySeries: The Ellis and Lemire runs for their own reasons. Ellis provided an anthology-like format for the series which allowed it to both be awesome and accessible to new readers without any continuity baggage besides the occasional lip service. Lemire, while embracing the continuity more, also worked to retell ([[{{Retcon}} and slightly reinvent]]) Marc's backstory which also allowed accessibility to new readers who don't know anything about the character.

*CompleteMonster: [[ArchEnemy Raoul Bushman]] is a thuggish terrorist, crime lord, rapist, and even dictator who roundly proves himself the worst enemy of the Moon Knight. Once the [[PsychoForHire head]] of a group of mercenaries Marc Spector was part of, Bushman personally murdered the head of an archaeological dig withholding valuable artifacts from him and promptly had the entire town he was in massacred to follow, leaving Spector for dead upon his revulsion. Dealing in many more crimes afterwards, Bushman returned to glory when he became [[TheGeneralissimo the dictator]] of his home country of Burunda in a cruel dictatorship that killed millions, systematically exterminating everyone with AIDS within; [[BadBoss killing his own men at the drop of a hat]]; taking advantage of his country's rich soil by having towns and villages wiped out--regardless if the populace can make it out--to build dope farms; and later slaughtering rebels with aplomb solely to get to Spector. Later trying to force Spector's friends to commit political assassinations to utterly humiliate and break Spector and aiding in an attempt to end the planet, Bushman was later brought back from his eventual death to lobotomize an entire asylum of patients to cause chaos all across the city, smugly admitting nothing matters to him more than seeing Spector broken before him.
