Crawley was actually in the show, he was the street performer pretending to be a statue that Steven Grant would talk to.I loved Moon Knight. I loved it so much it got me into reading comics. There is so much they can pull from for a season 2. I guess Marlene is out, but we could see Frenchie, Gena, and Crawley. I'd love if they referenced Moon Knight's first appearance when he fought Werewolf By Night. Or the more recent run where Khonshu abandons Marc for someone else.
This story is basically what they mined for the show's plot. The false asylum that exists in Marc/Steven's headspace, the two minions of Harrow were named Billy and Bobbi (after the orderlies from this story, and they appear as orderlies in his headspace), Arthur Harrow's psychiatrist version in Marc's headspace is basically Dr. Emmet, this story is why Ammit is the villain in the show at all (and her design is based on Emmet's "true" form), and the jackal monsters that Harrow summons in the first two episodes are based on Billy and Bobby's "true" forms.
It's complicated. The concept that Marc and Steven have different costumes/superhero identities is actually an invention of the show. Mr. Knight is a much later creation in the comics than Steven Grant is. Moon Knight/Mr. Knight are sometimes totally different personalities in the comics from Marc/Steven/Jake so there is no equivalent "third" identity so the MCU would have to invent one for Jake. For what it is worth, one of the concept artists for the show said that, if he were to design Jake's suit right now he would probably use Moon Knight's black suit variation he has worn sometimes in the comics as a starting point.Does the third personality hinted at throughout the show have his own unique costume too the way Moon Knight and Mr Knight do? I didn't even know there was a third guy before watching the show, I've only ever seen the classic suit and the Mr Knight versions
Finally someone who appreciates Hawkeye <3
Ohhh, interesting! I love hearing about how the MCU switches up things from the comics. And that black suit is sick as hell, I hope we do get more Moon Knight in the future (season 2, movie cameo, team up in another show, whatever) and they adapt it for live action!

It took FOREVER to get my girlfriend to finally agree to watch it, and we binged it in like two days. It's super fun! Kate is fantastic, I'd love to get another season.
Yeah the tactical suit for Jake makes too much senseCrawley was actually in the show, he was the street performer pretending to be a statue that Steven Grant would talk to.
But I think Frenchie has a pretty good chance of showing up in a hypothetical second season, he was referenced in Marc/Steven's phone list as a person who had tried to call him. I could see a second season introducing Frenchie as another one of Moon Knight's allies alongside Layla and bringing in Bushman as the villain.

In fact the entire series' plot seems to have come from the idea of "what if the Ammut/Ammit from the Welcome to New Egypt story was real?".

Wow, it's obvious to me now how much they pulled from that story for the show.Crawley was actually in the show, he was the street performer pretending to be a statue that Steven Grant would talk to.
