    I like it how Moon Knight's character has a split personality, and yet his comic has been rebooted so many times with his character being changed, sort of breaking that 4th wall.

    +Jonathan Luoto yeah you're right he's batman its just that he kills doesn't have as much technological gadgets has super powers is involved with some Egyptian god shit isn't really strong by himself isn't the same type of detective isn't smart has mental issues while batman really doesn't its just that his parents were killed and he fights crime so that it doesn't happen again and he is violent cuz he wants himself to be a symbol of fear unlike superman who is a symbol of hope also batman is less violent has A LOT of sideckicks and batman has a completely different colour scheme like the exact opposite but other than that they're the same since you know they both fight mainly in the dark and they're both vigilantes

    Also batman is the smartest detective/person in the DC Multiverse, and is completely mortal using gadgets he built himself. Yet Moon Knight is powered by a god, has no gadgets, is brain damaged, and just a street level 'hero'. So how are they even close to being simular?

    Everything is inspired by something or someone else. Batman was inspired by Zorro and The Shadow. The Hulk was inspired by the dichotomy between Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. Moon Knight isn't a rip off of Batman. He may be inspired by Batman, but Batman doesn't kill people or dress up in bright colors.

    Reboots, retcons, new earths and continuity. The Golden age is a different earth than the main DC continuity. The New 52 redid Batman's first year, and prior to that Frank Miller's Year One is part of continuity. In those two stories Batman does not kill. So Batman's murderous spree in his first appearances are not canon, and haven't been since the Silver Age.

  • @victorcarlstrom8156
    @victorcarlstrom81567 жыл бұрын

    Moon Knight is kind of an acquired taste. The way I see it, all the various reboots are actually Marc trying to deal with all the trauma in his life, and he rewrites his memories to cope. The way I've always described him to my friends is what if Batman didn't have parent-issues and instead had multiple personalities. Someone mentioned Taskmaster in another post. Taskmaster has said he can fight like Moonknight but refuses to, because Moonknight would rather take a punch to score a knockout than dodge out of the way. The Charlie Huston run goes into this a little. That's series did an awesome job highlighting his mental problems and destructive nature. A character in that arc called The Profile was introduced as well. Basically he can look at someone and know all about them: fears, desires, secrets, etc. He could read Marc Spector but in the guise of Moon Knight made him freak out, implying that in the personality of Moon Knight, Spector is a drastically different person. Moon Knight has a surprisingly amount of depth to him once you get past the Batman connection. He's also really unpredictable so you never know where his story will take you. Plus, he one of the few rare detectives in Marvel, whereas DC is chock full of detectives.

    It sounds like elements of Batman were slowly added to Moon Knight, while Moon Knight's personality, background and morals are his own. Given his willingness to kill, and the Konshu/powers angle, I'd say it's less that he's a ripoff of Batman, and more AzBats (Jean-Paul Valley) was a ripoff of Moon Knight.

    I never understood the love of Moon Knight until sitting down and reading the 2006 run and never stopped. It's fair to compare generalities with characters, but it's the nuances separating the heroes/villains making the difference. If we only define heroes by abilities, you'll have a hard time enjoying any character. How many characters have super strength, speed, and toughness? But if I asked to guess the one I was thinking of, you would ask what was the story behind the character to guess. Being said I love Mooney; I like Batman but what I like about Batman, I can find in Mooney. Moreover I respect Marc over Bruce. He's self-made, a damaged hero, a broken person, and even with a moon god as a patron, an underdog. Mooney could be Batman? Batman could never be Mooney. WISH I could write some Moon Knight.

While Bruce is wealthy due to his parents' financial growth, Marc earned his through his years as a merc and that's where the fans see the difference and whom can appreciate a character that isn't born of money and luxury. Seeing as how you defined moon knight so well i no doubt you can make moon knight even cooler and appealing so make it a reality. ☺

Kunshuu involves ancient egyptian mysticism, Moonknight himsef is pretty much Batman, and then you got the mental illness. And that really does it for me.

And yeah, he's a lot like batman, but there's also always this underlying supernatural feel to his books and although his purpose is to serve Konshu, they're always arguing and at each other's throats in Marc's head. And especially in the current Moon Knight ongoing, I love the sense of mystery and confusion in not knowing what's real and what's just Marc going insane.

    I'm not sure I would agree that he's Marvel's version of Batman. Batman has some pretty clear motivations and ethics (although he may have strayed from time to time). Moon Knight seems to mired in a lot more confusion in terms of who he is and why he's doing what he does. It probably resonates with people because we're all trying to figure ourselves out.

    The Egyptian overtones to his character including the fact that he may or may not be possessed by Khonsu as an explanation for his disorder and his decision to become a hero weigh heavily over the character. Nothing is concrete or solid with this character which creates interest in not only the mystery but also how he perceives the mystery. Moon Knight is easily one of the most intriguing characters in Marvel’s gallery and really draws little comparison to Batman if any. Given your extensive knowledge on the character I would assume you’d have extensive understanding but that does not appear to be the case

    Moon Knight is certainly my favourite hero. He just clicks well for me. The Marvel NOW run was particularly great, both in art design and storytelling. Another thing that clicks is how he'll take on insane odds simply because he has to. Like when he took on Count Nerferia. Or even when broken, he took on Taskmaster. Or when he beat up Deadpool so badly that Deadpool had to be hospitalized and give up on a mission. As for the constant Batman comparison, this is the best differentiating factor between the two I've seen explained: "Huston accepted that the two characters had their similarities, but went on to contrast the two by noting in particular differences in origin, motives, and personality. "Bruce Wayne", he said, "fights crime to avenge the murders of his parents", whereas Moon Knight "beats up whoever has it coming because he believes he is the avatar of the Egyptian god of vengeance and it helps him to feel better about all the people he killed when he was a mercenary." Thus, while Batman is motivated by vengeance for wrong done to his parents, Marc Spector is motivated by vengeance as a concept. Huston further notes that Bruce Wayne, Batman's alter ego, takes on other personalities merely to aid in his fight. However, Moon Knight has three alter egos which aid him as much in dealing with personal demons as fighting law-breakers, and which have taken a further psychological toll of causing dissociative identity disorder." I do agree that he's been all over the place design wise... but he's not Batman. Similarities to be sure, but if you wrote Batman like Moon Knight you'd have people rioting the streets. Or'd you'd have Batman from BvS. Either or.

    Lol, I can understand why Rob doesn't like Moon Knight. Me personally, I get he's Marvel's version of Batman, but that doesn't mean he can't be unique. What I love about Moon Knight is the fact that HE IS CRAZY. Due to that, you get a superhero that can make for some really interesting and awesome stories that you wouldn't really find in a Batman comic. In any case, I hope they make a Netflix series that's sort of like Fight Club, with an unreliable narrator and a kickass super hero :)

    Hey Rob. I'm subscribed to so many KZread channels and I just want you to know you are my favorite channel. Great humor(like the new rundowns) and love when you do stories like Hickmans. I have seen you uploading everyday now which is great cause I know you will get subscribers. I also have noticed you have been trying new types of videos like the rundowns that are less serious and videos like this where you use a more serious voice. But coming from someone who has been with you from the beginning I just want to say your voice is already perfect man you don't need to do this fake voice cause your fans like me can tell you are faking. Just my advice, obviously you don't have to listen to a dumb KZread commenter fan but just saying your regular voice is perfect and you don't need to alter it in any way.

    Thank you! I learned a lot about the character... I am a little obcessed with the Moon Knight and I think it is because of the costume.... He definately instills fear in his opponents, much like Batman. The difference is the fanatic obcession with Khonshu and the moon. The religious fervor for vengence and justice makes his need to be a hero almost as justified as Bruce Wayne's. Someone with too much faith running aound at night in white pajamas saying he is the fist of an ancient Egyptian god dealing justice as he seem fit? Interesting character to me... hope Netflix gives him some love. Thanks again.

    Moon Knight is one of those Marvel characters that people are drawn to because of the character design. Much like Ghost Rider, it's the look that hooks people. In reading the various books, you can see the Batman comparisons are more about the silhouette of the character. The artistic choice of placing the character in darkness and shadow, the classic dramatic poses, etc. If anything, Moon Knight is the polar opposite of Batman, probably because the writers often knew the product they were producing was going to draw the comparison.

The mental issues are very interesting and the more mystic side of his powers, whether real or imagined, are very unique. I tend to like most street level characters in general and Moon Knight looks amazing. The MK art by Maleev is fantastic. When do we get a Namor video..! Great job as always

    When I was a kid, I loved Moon Knight. He really does come across as Marvel's Batman....But there has always been a different flavor to him. In some ways, he's a more realistic version of Batman. The whole multiple personality thing gives him a strange angle. It's like I've always said with Batman...Batman is the real person and Bruce is the secret identity. But I don't think most writers catch that. Moon Knight's writers caught that, for the most part, and that made his stories always have a really weird edge. I hated when Marvel did that direct sales crap and mando paper "upgrade" in the 80's. Moon Knight and Micronauts were two of my favorite titles and they just got lost in the shuffle. To this day I've not finished reading those runs because there were no specialty stores near me. Maybe something I need to put on my to-do list.
