    Moon Knight

    Character » Moon Knight appears in 1414 issues.

    Moon Knight, Marc Spector, Steven Grant, and Jake Lockley: four different aspects of the same man who was resurrected by Khonshu (the Egyptian Lunar-God of Vengeance and Justice) to serve as his "avatar." Those unjust mortals who prey upon the innocents traveling at night, with powers that come from the moon, beware the Vengeance of the Moon Knight!

    What's in a name?

    Something just occurred to me today: With Khonshu no longer a part of Marc Spector's life, the name "Moon Knight" has become meaningless. The whole reason he used that moniker was that he was the Moon's knight, literally dealing vengeance in its name. Without that association, the name no longer has any relevance.

    Yeah. That's what I thought.

    Khonshu will be back to haunt Marc and the name will retain its relevance! In Bendis we trust...

    He could call himself Spi-Wolver-Cap-Man instead.

    He still uses the Moon as a symbol or logo so the name is fine. Makes just as much sense for him to go by Moon Knight as it is for Batman to go by Batman.

    It also still mentions him on the inside of the cover in each issue. "Marc Spector believes himself to have been resurrected by the ancient deity Khonshu..... Spector dons the mantle of Khonshu...."

    Sounds like the punchline to an 80's sitcom: "That's our Bendis" *crowd laughs* :)

    Because this is the first time he's ever denied Khonshu.

    I'm totally happy Marlene is off the grid. I couldn't stand her in the Shadowland: Shadowknight arc. I would much rather Jake (or are we calling him Marc now?) date Echo.

    I think it's pretty safe to say that everyone hated Shadowland in general, but I honestly miss Marlene, Frenchie, and Crawley. I hope they at least make an appearance in this new series and aren't forgotten competely :(
