Moon Knight Poster Reveals Tokyo Ghoul Creator’s Take on MCU Show
Tokyo Ghoul creator Sui Ishida has shared his own take on Marvel's Moon Knight in a new piece of art inspired by the recently released Disney+ series. The latest Marvel series stars Oscar Isaac as the titular hero. Ishida's popular dark fantasy manga has received numerous adaptations, including multiple anime series and live-action films.
In Tokyo Ghoul, a near-fatal encounter with a carnivorous ghoul posing as his date completely upends Kaneki Ken's (Natsuki Hanae) life forever when the surgery used to save him results in him becoming a half-ghoul. Kaneki is forced to adjust and fit into this new, unfamiliar hidden world of ghouls, all while grappling with his newfound desire to consume human flesh. At the same time, hidden shadowy organizations threaten the fragile balance and co-existence between humanity and ghouls, leading to Kaneki being drawn into bloody, chaotic conflicts. While Ishida has often reinterpreted beloved anime characters in his distinctive style, the mangaka has now shared his own take on Marvel's complex hero of the shadows.
