Moon Knight: 4 characters needed for his Disney Plus show
By Mark Lynch
2. Raul Bushman
Every hero needs a nemesis. Someone who brings out the best or worst in them. Wolverine and Sabretooth, Xavier and Magneto, or Batman and Bane. In this case, Moon Knight has Raul Bushman.
At first, they were brothers in arms. It wasn’t until Raul tried to harm Marc and Marlene that things went south. The funny thing is Raul’s attack leads to Marc becoming Khonshu’s avatar. Instead of killing Marc, he created Moon Knight.
The two fought multiple times, and it eventually seemed like it would come to an end after Marc carved Raul’s face off and killed him. Unfortunately, no one ever stays dead.
Raul Bushman isn’t known by that many people, and this works in the creators’ favor, as they can play around with his character, and turn him into something that works with the show – just like it worked for Cottonmouth and Bushmaster in Luke Cage.
He should be portrayed as the biggest physical threat to Moon Knight; someone who is just as ruthless and cruel as him. Their fights could be the stuff of legend, and if it’s anything like we saw in Charlie Huston’s The Bottom, then this could be bloody.
He won’t be the only antagonist that Moon Knight and Marc Spector face but this next fight won’t be physical…
