Since we finished up looking at Moon Knight (at least for now) - We've expanded our sights and are now voyaging out into the larger Marvel Cinematic Universe with all the characters that covers - both heroes and villains. We are doing this over at our new podcast called Comics Over Time which started the beginning of July. We think we have things ready for you at this poin, and we'd love to have you come over and join us!

Please look for Comics Over Time in your podcast player of choice and subscribe so you can get each new episode when it releases every Wednesday morning. For updates on the show or to interact with us on social media, you can find us on Twitter: @comics over time. You can send us a longer message via email. That address is comments@comicsovertime.com. 

This week we wrap it all up, as we reflect on Moon Knight’s forty-five year history and let you know who our favorite creators were, what the most memorable storylines were, and which villains we most loved to hate.  We also will take a bit of time to talk about the joys and sorrows of starting a podcast, and will let you in on what we are planning to talk about now that our Moon Knight review is complete!

Music Intro and Outro created by Lesfm.

Welcome to a special edition of the Phases of the Moon Knight podcast.  We have covered almost 300 Moon Knight comics since the start of the year, and have searched out and discussed dozens of spoilers, trailers, articles and rumors about the TV show.  

So today we will talk about all six episodes.  Moon Knight really has been everything that I could have asked for.  It has characters we care about, interesting locations, drama, laughs and spectacle.  More than that through this entire series has featured a weirdness, a vertigo-inducing sense that something just isn’t entirely right.  There’s a lot to unpack here. 

This week we discuss, in no particular order: Review what’s made - not what we expected, Listener emails, violence as story and plot, Was this REALLY Moon Knight? And the Adventures of the Scarlett Scarab. 

SPOILER WARNING: this episode is pretty much nothing but spoilers, so we recommend waiting to listen until you have watched Moon Knight episode six!

While we wait just 1 more day for the final episode of the TV Show, Dan and I dive into the Avengers and story that sets Khonshu and Moon Knight at odds with the Avengers. We’ll also take a look at an annual story that sends Moon Knight through time to recover some artifacts that will stop Kang the Conqueror. We will also talk about the passing of a comic book legend.
