Um, what?

I mean forgive me but I was under the impression Moon Knight was like a Batman Level guy,. How the Heck did he just stop Mjolnir then fucking bury Thor in moons?

Moon Knight just beat up Thor?

What's next - Moon Knight beating up Squirrel Girl?

Normally, I'd cry "utter bullshit!" at the thought of Moon Knight being able to stand up to, and defeat, the characters he does here, but it's clear that he's being supercharged by Khonshu who's being supercharged by some sort of super-lunar event. So it's storytime handwavium bullshit, but then again, that's kinda Jason Aaron's wheelhouse.

So if that means sure, Full!Moon Knight can beat up Thor and telekinetically control Mjolnir... oh fine, let's go with it. Aaron also has a weirdly specific thing for his 1,000,000 BC Avengers and for playing mix-and-match with their power sets.

This is remarkably goofy, but I'm okay with it. I mean, what else do we have to look forward to at the moment? :)

You know, I would have guessed that Khonsu was the god of one moon in particular, rather than moons as a general concept, but Wikipedia does mention him of being a "God of light in the night," so I guess that tracks.

I do hope Moon Knight's planning to clean up those moons when he's done, and that he considerate enough not to grab any that inhabited worlds were depending on to stabilize their orbits/tides/rotations.

Sure, this is Jason Aaron's fun saturday morning cartoon avengers run, but I keep wondering what the point was of moon knight's 2014 reboot at all, given that no one outside wood did anything particularly useful with it.

Ive always liked The Moon-Bat version better than Dr. Moon Fate.
