4. There’s another personality

Fans of Moon Knight from Marvel Comics were anticipating how each of Marc’s personalities would be portrayed. Marc is gritty and wants to get the job done. He’s also the protector that Khonshu needed (even if he wants Layla). Steven is a bit of a coward, but he’s slowly becoming a stronger person. Episode 3 just introduced the third.

As of now, we don’t know if the third is Jake Lockley. They could be named something else. Oscar Isaac could pull off whatever is asked of him. All we know is that this third personality is the one who killed people when Marc and Steven didn’t. This writer also thinks that “Jake” is the one who asked Steven’s coworker out on a date (episode 1). Will the next episode reveal him? Maybe he’ll have a different accent too. This writer guesses Boston or deep south accent.

3. Arthur enjoyed his time as Moon Knight

Arthur Harrow was once the avatar of Khonshu (we find this out in episode 2). Their relationship eventually ended, which led to Arthur becoming the avatar of Ammit instead. However, viewers just learned that Arthur actually liked being Khonshu’s fist for vengeance. He only stopped because Khonshu kept beating him down. The question now is if Arthur left or did Khonshu drop him for enjoying the job too much. This writer thinks the latter.
