Dargavs, Russia by Rogov
The village of Dargavs, or the City of the Dead, has an ancient cemetery where people that lived in the valley buried their loved ones along with their clothes and belongings. The valley stretches for 17 kilometers, and the cemetery contains almost 100 ancient stone crypts.

For 300 years the devil has hollowed over the city, made it his own, the people in it are his. Evil has triumphed over good here! Look at my church, I have no parish, no one worships here. His is the power.

I never actually finished the series I stopped at Maximum Ride Forever, should I give in and read hawk after all this damn time? Need a professional opinion
it's so great that even tho i don't even make maximum ride posts that much anymore i'm still considered a Professional™. my license hasn't expired yet apparently!
anyway, tbh Hawk was pretty mediocre and boring, although it had one or two fun flock moments. i don't think it's worth it *just* for that, but if you can tolerate grimdark edgy post-apocalypse stuff you might have an okay time. if you were annoyed by Forever you will probably be annoyed by Hawk.
city of the dead had a surprisingly coherent plot and, for that reason, was more exciting than Hawk. i wouldn't call it *good* but parts of it were interesting. i'm gonna credit the new co-author mindy mcginnis for that bc you KNOW james patterson wasn't the source of any of the good parts.
TLDR: might be worthwhile for nostalgia/"LMAO WTF IS THIS" reasons (due to all the random bullshit inserted in both of them), but otherwise i don't really recommend them. i don't think most of the fandom considers them canon/important anyway.

Hi! I haven't been keeping up to date with the Moon Knight comics recently (the romance with Tigra kind of put me off and i losing steam with the vamp arc) but I've been looking forward to city of the dead (big fan of the show) and your tags about it/the writer have me extremely nervous, what has he said about the title and system?
hi Anon! i'm cautiously looking forward to City of the Dead.
however, some things that the author, David Pepose, has said have given me a lot of pause.
in a recent interview, he made it clear that this was Marc's story. he's essentially ignoring that Moon Knight are a system. in fact, it seems that Steven and Jake will not appear, or if they do, their appearances will be brief.
Pepose describes that in his run, Marc will detach his soul from his body to travel to the City of the Dead to rescue a young boy. but Steven and Jake seem to be an afterthought to that, if they factor in at all. instead, the main focus seems to be showing Marc fighting a bunch of bad guys that he's killed in past runs.
even worse, it doesn't seem that Marc will confer with Steven and Jake before taking this drastic action, nor does it seem that Steven and Jake will have any role in this plan. (unfortunately, it's all too common for Marvel writers to treat Steven and Jake as an afterthought in their own comic.)
the thought of a headmate just … up and leaving like that is horrifying, but Pepose doesn't seem to have considered that. and what of Steven and Jake, who are (presumably) still in the earthly realm? Pepose hasn't considered that either, it seems.
Pepose describes that he's written Marc as having "questionable mental health" -- which in itself is uncomfortable language -- but there seems to be no acknowledgement of their DID.
this is a point of advocacy. if an author writes about a character who has been established as having DID, but then they ignore the fact that they're a system, and treat the system host as if they were a singlet … that's ableist -- at best, it's highly questionable.
if an author doesn't know how to write about a system, they need to do one of two things -- educate themselves on how to write about a system, or write about a different character. it's that simple.
all that said, i've still pre-ordered the first two issues of City of the Dead. i'm not buying it for Pepose's lackluster writing. i'm buying it because i want to support Layla El-Faouly becoming a character in Marvel comics canon. i want her to show up in other Marvel properties, and one of the best way to do that right now is to buy the comics issues she's in.

It's true that the Doctor was indeed aiming for 1844 Leeds, but he'd meant the city, not the tomb.
