That was definitely Marc who emerged from the toilets and stared at the camera, however – the clue was in the fringe. Sadly for him and his gift shop career, there was nothing concrete on tape showing the jackal pursuit and it looks very much as if Steven vandalised the property. We began with Steven chained to his bed, then saw him making his way to the British National Natural History Art Gallery and Albert Museum, and attempting to come clean about smashing up the toilets. Would Steven discover why he’s been moonlighting (sorry) as a crimefighting hero after dark? Would we ever establish which London museum he’s supposed to be working at? And will we forgive the accent now we know it’s essentially Marc Spector putting it on? One thing I have been thinking about since last week is who it might be on the end of the phone when Steven calls his mum and leaves voicemails. Moon Knight's crescent moon-shaped throwing blades and adamantium-laced bo staff are among two of his most iconic weapons.After the slightly muted but largely positive reaction to Moon Knight’s screen debut last week, we reach episode two: Summon the Suit. Another oddity is how the suit emerges and acts as a power boost for the superhero in the very first episode of the series, the white suit emerges from Marc Specter himself and instantly increases his powers by manifolds. Carbonadium, a flexible material considered as equivalent to Adamantium in terms of quality and endurance in MCU, is used to create the suit.

Surprisingly, Thor's hammer Mjolnir is composed of Uru, a metal ore that is said to be as ancient as the cosmos itself. The ability to physically manipulate moons and anything manufactured from moon-based materials is one of the talents Spector acquires (temporarily) from the moon god. He bestows Spector with a variety of superpowers that the vigilante has never had before, yet they are only a fraction of what Khonshu can achieve. In issue #33 of 'Avengers' moon god, Khonshu thinks it's time for his earthly incarnation to usher in the Age of Khonshu. Moon Material Manipulation Moon Knight in comics.
