Ways Marvel Lied To You About Moon Knight – Looper

Nearly every aspect of Moon Knight's character fluctuates often and dramatically, so it's no surprise that the style and scale of his adventures fluctuate too. At his core, Moon Knight is a street-level hero, prowling the streets of New York City by night, battling crooks with martial arts and simple melee weapons. Even in the majority of his team-ups, Moon Knight remains grounded in smaller stakes (pun intended, given all the vampires he fights), mainly allying with fellow street-level heroes like Spider-Man, Punisher, Luke Cage, and the Black Cat.

But Moon Knight has another side. When he's more directly in Khonshu's control, or fighting alongside one of the Avengers teams, he enters a far different world many of them, in fact. He was one of the heroes to take part in the intergalactic events of 1992's "Infinity War" and 2018's "Infinity Wars." He has time-traveled on multiple occasions, like his trip to the ancient homeland of Conan the Barbarian in 2019's "Serpent War." During "Age of Khonshu," he even gained the powers of the Iron Fist, Doctor Strange, Ghost Rider, Thor, and the Phoenix Force, all in an effort to fight Marvel's literal Devil, Mephisto. The shift in setting and tone between Moon Knight stories can be intense, but can also lead to some top-tier moments.
