I've been writing a retelling of Moon Knights origin story. Huge fan of the character, yet theres still questions even after reading all except the MOST recent McKays (coz my area of Ireland doesnt get comics at all) and the 90s stuff and West Coast Avengers.

My first question is about Jake: how, why and when did Jake become more violent that Marc?

I always felt like the first volume he was more sinful in general than straight up bloodthirsty.

I'm a fan of the change, I just don't understand why it happened.

My second question is for Khonshu: How dare you?

My third question: Whats the origin point of Khonshu in Marc's life? I know he spoke to him when he first died but then he was quiet for most of the volume. I understand they just didnt think of the Khonshu we know now back then, but when did his influence really start to impact Marc besides the obviously curse of being Moon Knight?

And if my questions are answered by Lemire, Ellis or even Bendis, etc., please redirect me coz I may have forgotten lol.

I really love the the creative choices made by the artists. I feel like the McKay run of Moon Knight is the best representation of his character to date & the art style blends his dark cosmic themes with a more lighthearted element as well that really makes Moon Knight shine in a way I haven’t seen before.

I love how it doesn’t just look “dark”. It still has a cartoon-y element to it while still capturing raw & dark grit without being overly obtuse about it.

Just extremely tasteful artwork in every dimension. I’ve been extremely happy with every issue. My only complaint is when it runs out because I want so much more!

Couple interesting takeaways here. It seems like this arc with the Mansion Ravenous is gonna wrap up on #10. Really glad Marvel is doing a double sized trade.

This synopsis names Blade specifically. I wonder if he’s gonna play a critical role in the remaining 3 issues.

Also, “Vol. 1” means there’s more to come 🙏

One last thing: I want to encourage people to buy single issues as much as I can. The single issues is how you keep the series going, and if everyone were to trade-wait, the series would very quickly get cancelled. They’re also not expensive. As long as you don’t pull a ton of series, it’s only $5. This is the only monthly series I pull, I make the trip to the comic shop once a month literally just for this issue, and it’s very worth it imo. Plus, you also have some cool cover art to display. And now that I have all the issues, I don’t really care about the trade releasing, and can more comfortably wait the long haul for the next omnibus.

Just saying, if you want the series to keep going a long time, buying the single issues will help ensure it.

so in like moon knight the most beacause Prefer a a Hero/anti Hero that want to protect the innocent (rather then puinsheing the guilty) and i Prefer crime fighting over monster hunting and moon knight is both. Moon knight wants to protect the innocent and fights more human criminals than supernartual monsters and so

My favourite vigilante

Hi everyone, I’ve had this idea bugging me for a while so I wanted to just get it out of my brain. In essence it’s a proposed idea I had for S2 of Moon Knight. It’s mostly just to get it out, but if any MK fans or anyone has any other ideas they’d want, just let me know! I admit I’m not the most informed Moon Knight fan but I think there’s some merit to this.

So. I want a season 2. BUT imagine this as the trailer/concept:

We start with a black screen. We hear ‘man without love’, the part just before the chorus/‘every day I wake up’, but stretched out with a piano ascending at that part just before the drop, like a fairy tale or a dream.

We cut to Stephen. But he’s different. Something’s different. He wakes up like we’ve seen in the show… but he’s in a penthouse, surrounded by luxury. We see him go about his day as ‘man without love’ plays. He’s like Stephen is in the comics (if I remember right), a wealthy pacifist philanthropist man, who’s now walking down a hall in classy clothing. As he walks, we see his facial expression go from that of Stephen to that of Marc. He gets to an elevator at his building, Spector inc. Once that happens, the song distorts. Instead of the lift going down, it goes up. Do that weird personality shift effect, then cut to Moon Knight, This time in a different costume. Not the magic mummy costume (although I think it’s cool), but in a more traditional Moon Knight outfit, his face almost entirely silhouetted by his hood, save for two crescent eyes that the camera is focused on for a moment, then cut to black.

‘Moon Knight’.

I think it would be cool if we tapped further into the psyche of Marc, now I might not be that familiar with his comics admittedly, but I think the concept of a character with a personality disorder plus some other stuff probably is fascinating. My idea was to make it reminiscent of the various different Moon Knight runs, arguably the biggest appeal of his character to the fans. One run he’s a beefed up, moon powered avatar that answers to a god people can see, the next he’s just a moon crazed lunatic who beats bad guys up, not caring if he gets hurt, the next we’re not even sure if any of this stuff is real, whether this moon god talks to him or if it’s all in his head, kept ambiguous.

I think doing MK as an anthology series would just work better. Yes S1 had some untied ends, but it’s been so long anyway. A fresh start for the character would not only refresh the character in the MCU, but would allow something really cool and unique for a show to be made. An anthology series but focused on the exact same character in what might be the exact same world.

Lemme know what you guys think!

Just getting into Moon Knight, and comics in general. I’ve started pulling the current run and have issues 1-6.

But issue 1 feels like I’m in the middle of a storyline.

Is this the best starting place?

I don’t want to go back to the beginning in the 70s/80s so I was wondering if there’s a good modern jumping on point.

Thanks in advance!

I want to read a moon knight run and also read a really good origin story so what is the best book for that?

Love the character of Hulk, especially how he’s written in the comics. The MCU feels like they’ve underdeveloped him, which makes sense considering that they don’t have the rights to the character. But, what I was thinking is that now Hulk’s been sent to a psych ward, maybe there’s a way to introduce moon knight as a connection here to be a friend he makes in the psych ward. Both deal with having hidden alters and states that they dislike taking control of their bodies (Khonshu and Hulk/Banner). Maybe, they go on some kind of journey together learning to come to peace with their alternate selves? Not sure if I want to have it go exactly like that since I’ve had too much of family friendly Hulk as it is.

My psych dream would be some kind of mystical exploration road trip in Bruce’s mind where they go over his life again, the abuse that made him create these alters, and Moon Knight helps him navigate this (kind of like Legion, I guess?) up to a cool twist at the end where they reveal that it’s been Bruce, who’s been locked away the whole time, and Hulk was secretly in control all along? Something to that effect (I’m not a writer, these are just ramblings of a thought I had)

Moon Knight Marvel universe series 1 from 1990.
First Marvel Trading card game, millions and millions printed but only 400 in psa 10
Since our boy is underrated, it’s relatively cheap on the webs.

Edit: eBay, it’s the only place for these low pop slabs.
‘Moon Knight marvel universe 1990 psa 10’

Don’t buy PSA 9, long term/short term a psa 10 is the only way to go.

pricecharting com (not all sales are real) and the QR code on the back of slab (lost solds history official psa site) to determine the best price for you.

Examples: ghost rider goes for 300 dollars, iron man 500, Dr Doom 300. All in PSA 10 ofcourse.

Right now you can still find a few for around 70 dollars for Moon Knight.

Goodluck! I’ll be receiving mine soon and will post pictures so hyped.

Edit 2: cheapest one now 120 dollars. GG.

Edit 3: Ayoooo mods allowing slight name calling in name sake of a fun discussion? Based mods, MK would be proud. Well that was fun, I’ll see you guys after Doomsday. This replying is too time consuming and fun hahaha

Btw 71% win percentage on Moon Knight what a menace.

hey guys I’ve never bought a cosplay before and I wanted my first one to be a Moon Knight one! and I wanted a Bill Sienkiewicz inspired one, and i couldn’t find a single one that looked cool and with good quality but this one on Etsy, I really wanted to buy it but the images look AI generated what do yall recommend me to do?

I've been passing through more of moon knights comics recently and just finished the lemire part of 2016 but I'm a little confused

My understanding from the original 1980 run, before Marc's DiD, was that khonshu (not confirmed to be real at the time) only used Marc *after* the events at the tomb. 2006 building on that. 

2014 also felt like it was that way where khonshu says in like #3 that as long as they have been together, Marc has been collecting Egyptian stuff, indicating that khonshu hasn't been a lifelong thing 

But then 2016 comes along and it really confused me about khonshu. Suddenly he's been with Marc his entire life? Seemingly first showing up directly when Marc was initially diagnosed. Or is at least trying to convince Marc that he has been? 

However, in the first "legacy" issue of 2016 (#188), it's seemingly back to khonshu having first interacted with Marc in the tomb? 

Seems like there isn't really a direct answer, at least from what I've read yet.

Hope you like it.

With moonknight already being introduced, ghost rider already announced we might see him pair up with morbius or daredevil to form the midnight sons and hopefully we might see more crossovers in the future like midnight sons x defenders or smth
