Surprisingly the issue was on my pull-list. I found it a good read, with the decent Bendis-dialoque that also was in his earlier work (and possibly still in Ultimate Spidey). Although I found the cliffhanger not so grand, the direction of the series does have potential.

It'll probably be canceled within three months after Bendis/Maleev departure.

It could even get cancelled before then. Even Maleev and Bendis might not have the juice to make him successful.

Defiantly within the first story arc after they leave, though.

I flipped through it in the store but didn't grab it. I'll download it but that's it. I lost interest in the last Moon Knight series a few years back and will likely do the same here...

I can imagine Bendis and Maleev's issues reaching a sustainable mid-level sales. But, after their departure, if they are only set to do one arc, then the book will lose interest from readers. Probably because after an initial steady, repeat sales some crappy combination of writer and artist will be put on the book.
