Moon Knight

And most importantly how were they changed?

Of the few Marvel series I've seen so far, Moon Knight is by far my favorite. Not only is the lore amazing, but effects are just great to watch.

Part of what draws me to Moon Knight is the connection to Egyptian mythology. One of my biggest fandoms happens to include the Riordanverse, and I loved reading the Kane Chronicles trilogy. It's interesting to see a different interpretation of how these ancient gods would interact with the mortal world.

Another thing that I liked was how well they pulled off Marc's and Steven's split personalities. I mean, it's an awesome idea, having a DID guy (or would it be guys?) try to be a superhero and stuff.

Plus, I suppose, the familar face. I not all the knowledgeable when it comes to actors/celebrities, but I do happen to know a few. Particularly Star Wars and Marvel actors, which Oscar Issac's been in both (he's like one of 4 actors to appear in both Star Wars and the MCU, lol).

Also, anyone know if we're ever going to get a follow-up on that 3rd personality thing that's going on? Like, a Season 2 or something?

Will Moon Knight return (no in What if...?) and if he return how?

Tell in comments.

I know that it has announced that it won't exist Moon Knight Season 2 but what will happend with Moon Knight? The series make some questions: Is Moon Knight real? , We will see again Mark Spector and Steven Grant? , who is Jacke Lockley? and others. I don't think that Avengers: 5/6 will analyze this because the movies are about Avengers. So, there has to be a second season.

These are some ideas for how to continue Marc Spector's character arc in the MCU.

Episode 1 - 3

After seeing crime rates increase in their streets, Marc and Steven contemplate on the idea of continuing the mission of Moon Knight without the influence of Khonshu for the sake of helping people and protect the travelers of the night without using the moon god’s brutal vengeance.

At first, Marc hesitates because of his history with Khonshu, but Steven convinces him that Moon Knight can be his second chance at redeeming his life, to atone for his sins by making Moon Knight a protector. A hero rather than what Khonshu wanted Moon Knight to be.

Marc agrees to the idea and they start (or really, restart) the mission. Using the leftover money from his mercenary days, Marc construct a new, white, makeshift and comic accurate suit.

With a new suit and mission in mind, Marc and Steven embark on their journey to protect the travelers of the night. At first, they are rough in their methods, Marc is a good combatant but without Khonshu’s powers, he gets hit quite a bit and when Steven eventually surfaces, he feels the repercussions of the beatings. It's a mess. No coordination and no flow but after a while, they start to get the hang of it. Their skills improve and they start to gain public attention. They start to make headlines in news stations like Daily Bugle. Getting compared to other street level heroes/vigilantes like Daredevil, Spider-Man, and Punisher.

On a personal level, Marc and Steven start to bond more. They start to notice betterment in their lives and their mission. Because of better coordination, they start noticing a good decrease in the crime rate. Moon Knight starts gaining fans and he becomes a symbol of redemption, as he was supposed to be.

Episode 4 - 6

As their mission grows and things start to look positive, a new threat strikes the city — a new Moon Knight appears. An imposter. A new Moon Knight who uses harsh, brutal ways to bring about justice. Using Khonshu’s methods to rain the wrath of the moon.

At first, Marc and Steven try to ignore this new Moon Knight because he also targets criminals but then witnesses start to show up, claiming that this new Moon Knight is taking lives. He is killing criminals and putting even innocent people in danger. But the public doesn’t know it’s a different Moon Knight, so The Bugle turns on Moon Knight and starts to paint him as the villain like Spider-Man. Moon Knight’s heroic reputation plummets down.

Marc and Steven plan to investigate this imposter and capture him to stop the brutal murders. To figure out his identity and way of operation. This is when Mr. Knight, finally, gets a detective status.

While Moon Knight is being seen as a threat, Mr Knight helps Detective Flint, the only cop who trusts Marc and Steven to investigate this new imposter.

Marc and Steven decide to go into the streets to meet the witnesses themselves. This is where we explore the essential side characters like Crawley, Gena and her kids, etc. From their interrogations, they discover that this imposter has a very similar way of operation to theirs. The imposter patrols the same areas they do. They have similar voices and even fighting styles. Though the imposter is much more brutal.

Doubts begin to surface as Steven reminds Marc of their last fight with Harrow. They recall the unsettling pattern of experiencing blackouts during their fights, only to return and discover their opponents lying dead before them.

Episode 7 - 9

We dedicate significant time to Marc and Steven as they delve deeper into their investigation of this figure, steadily progressing towards validating Steven’s skepticism until it finally comes true.

The new Moon Knight is revealed to be Jake Lockley, their third alter still loyal to Khonshu. Marc and Steven are heartbroken at the truth, the murderer they’ve been trying to stop lives in them.

Marc and Steven confront Jake in their inner world, forcing him to reveal why he’s still with Khonshu. Why he’s brutalizing criminals and hurting innocents in the process.

After a prolonged and intense interrogation, Jake discloses that he struck a pact with Khonshu, a pact designed to prevent Khonshu from inhabiting a stronger avatar capable of killing the system and everyone that knows them. Jake’s harsh tactics served as his method of shielding Marc and Steven from Khonshu’s plan.

The theme of redemption returns in the last few episodes. Marc and Steven convince Jake of leaving Khonshu, making him realize that they are stronger together, that Khonshu can’t hurt them.

We get flashbacks to Marc’s childhood and Jake’s birth. We see how Jake has been living in the shadows, behind the scenes all this time, in the guilt that his revelation might hurt the other two alters but in the moments he comes out, his sole purpose is to protect them however he can.

Jake summons Khonshu in their inner world, after a long back-and-forth argument between Jake and Khonshu, he finally decides to leave the moon god. Khonshu tries to retaliate but without an avatar and in their inner world, he gets overpowered — all three alters come together and banish him from their lives.

Becoming strong enough to protect themselves and others around them, the alters finally embrace Moon Knight as the hero they all are.

I've heard rumors of a second season of Moon Knight. Are they true?

So last October the special presentation Werewolf by Night appeared on D+ and I really enjoyed it for being different and unique. And I don't really know what other people's opinions are, but I really enjoyed Jack Russell aka Werewolf by Night and I was thinking about the possible appearances of him in the future. Now I am assuming he will appear in other projects because he was in the Avengers Campus concept art, also if he didn't it would be such a waste of a character. Also, I'm just gonna be calling him Werewolf because I don't feel like typing Werewolf by Night multiple times.

Werewolf by Night 2 - Gotta start off with the obvious one which is a Werewolf by Night sequel, but I don't really think this is gonna happen. If they do decide to make any more Halloween specials it would probably be for a different character.

Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars - Now they introduced a lot of new characters in phase 4, plus they are still introducing more so they probably won't have every new character, and if they do they probably won't have a big role. If that is the case then Werewolf will probably be cut, but hey there is always a chance.

Moon Knight Season 2 - This is probably the most likely one considering a season 2 has been hinted at by the cast, and has been reported multiple times, plus Moon Knight and Werewolf are pretty connected in the comics.

Blade - The only reason this is on here is because of a connection through a possible Midnight Sons team.

Midnight Sons - Now it has been rumored that this is happening, but I really only put this on here because I really want this to happen, and if it does Werewolf is a possible candidate for the team. The only problem is that there are A LOT of other candidates for the team. Here are the people I think have a chance of being on the team. Blade, Moon Knight, Werewolf, Man-Thing, Ghost Rider (any works), Deadpool, Doctor Strange, Clea, Daimon and Ana Helstrom, Iron Fist, Elsa Bloodstone, and Black Knight. Now that's 14 characters not even considering that there could be multiple Ghost Riders so obviously they are not all gonna be on the team, at least at first so there is a chance that Werewolf could be on the team, but he could also not.

Anyway, that's my list, there are probably other things that I missed so if there is anything you think he could appear in just tell me.

Not sure about everyone else but I really enjoyed Moon Knight and am hoping for a second season but I really hope we get to see him before hand. I was wondering when you guys thought he might pop up next or even just get mentioned because so far all the ties I've noticed are a GRC poster in the background of one of the episodes and Isis making a small cameo in Thor: Love and Thunder.

I would have added Wanda to this list but decided not to. You can also add Doctor Strange if you so please.

What y’all think?

Sadly, Randall drowned in an accident, which turned their mom, Wendy, against Marc. She became depressed, avoided birthdays and constantly abused Marc, blaming the young boy for his little brother's death. In time, she'd physically whip him too. That scene made me lose my temper!

This is outrageous! It's unfair!

I am sick of this mother. Why does she do that?

Just because your son died doesn't mean that you would blame your other son for his death.

It's not Marc Spector's fault!

Now I want to start by saying two things: I’m Mexican and I’m not a sociologist or anything of that matter. Therefore I’m not academically qualified, but I do have enough of a cultural background to at least share my opinion. In this (hopefully short) essay, I’d like to discuss how Phase Four in particular modified characters so that they’d be of a different cultural background or change how their cultural background affects their story. The characters in question are the Eternals, America Chavez, Moon Knight and Namor.

I want to start with what I think is the best of them all, and that is Namor. Not just because I’ve been a fan of his for a while, but because he’s the best example of changing a character but not losing the identity. Because in all essence, his character hasn't changed. He is still the underwater king, he has chicken sized wings on his ankles, resents the surface world, and wants to attack it whenever he wants. What this version does add is some cultural significance to his plight, and a real feeling of resentment that many indigenous and Mexican people still have to this day towards the Spanish. His skin color and cultural change isn’t just theming, but it makes it richer.

Speaking of Latin American heroes, we have Moon Knight. What I like about him is surprisingly the opposite of Namor. While Namor showcases his culture, Marc/Steven are not. They don’t speak Spanish, or do anything stereotypically Latin American. That is until we learn the source of Marc’s condition, and that is without a doubt something any Latin American child has been threatened with or felt in their lifetime. And with Marc also being an US American, the distance shown between him and his father is also very reflective of how migrant children lose the family connection Latinos have in their home country. As for the Jewish part, I’m not touching that, but I’d love to know the thoughts of the people within that community down below.

Next up, America Chavez. Here’s what’s funny about Xochitl Gomez’s performance. Other than when she speaks in Spanish,and the Day of the Dead skull on her jacket, there is nothing uniquely Mexican in her performance. However, Doctor Strange 2 isn’t her movie, so I get why she didn’t get her time to shine, but I hope in future installments, she will. These thought also apply to Gael Garcia Bernal’s Werewolf by Night, because there really was no need in making him Mexican, but it was cool to see it.

And now we go to the difficult stuff, and that’s Salma Hayek as Ajak. Here’s the deal, I get the idea that Chloe Zhao wanted a multicultural group of “Gods”, and I think that is a great idea (just ask Neil Gaiman) , but it is kind of uncomfortable calling it proper representation. Because 1) she’s the sacrificial lamb of the story and 2) other than being the stereotypical single mother of many and the accent , what other traits does she have that are linked to the color of her skin? And that’s without even addressing the inaction in Tenochtitlan. Not to compare with the comics, but at least there the Eternals were enhanced humans, so the representation could be a bit more valid, but well, that isn’t the case here.

While I do have some thoughts on Shang-Chi’s and Ms. Marvel’s changes, I’d rather know what you guys think of those changes and if you guys liked them or not and why. Anyways, thanks for reading this, and hope you have a great day!

I was wondering how would the events of Moon Knight & She-Hulk if Marc took Jennifer's place and Jennifer took Marc's place during Moon Knight? Like how would Moon Knight deal with Titania, as well as all of Jennifer's other enemies during the events of She-Hulk, while how would Jennifer deal with Arthur Harrow during the events of Moon Knight how would these swaps affect the stories of both shows?

For me I want to see 2 things:

1- The sequel to this year's Werewolf By Night: People loved this year's special and can't wait to see more of the characters, and see them interact with characters from the larger MCU like Moon Knight, or maybe even Spider-Man! The plot could be like: One year after his escape from the Bloodstone family, Jack Russell/Werewolf By Night infiltrated society and lives a life like any other. But when his blood-thirsty alter ego awakens at night, Jack has to go on the run for the government, meeting new allies and facing new threats, while he searches for his old friend: Man-Thing. There could be some difficulties, but I'm sure if they put Michael Giacchino back on the job, it could be something epic!

2- Tomb of Dracula: Time for another classic! They could do the same plot as in the 1972 comic: Frank Drake, the descendant of Count Dracula, has inherited the Count's castle. With a plan to turn the castle into a tourist hot-spot, Frank sets out for Transylvania. But something dark lurks in the bowels of Castle Dracula! Just the same style as Werewolf By Night, but again, something different!
