Cover Date: Feb 81
Title: "A committee of 5"
Credits:

Klaus Janson - Inker

Review/plot:
"The Committee", the group that hired Moon Knight to go after Werewolf By Night in Moon Knight's first appearance, hires a crew of specialized assassins to get vengeance for Moon Knight's betrayal.

Moon Knight survives that attack and ends the threat of the Committee, thanks in part to the fact that he keeps endangering diner owner Gena Landers' under-aged kids.

The Neal Adams influence is strong with this one.

Moon Knight's origin is revised to show that Frenchie had infiltrated the Committee and convinced them to hire Moon Knight, and that's how they would up with his costume.
