Moon Knight - 10 Insanely Dark Moments Disney Will Never Show

Moon Knight is slated for his own Disney + show, and is expected sometime in 2021 or 2022 with several other Marvel shows slated ahead of it. The little-known street level character will be depicted as a former CIA agent, whose life is saved by the Egyptian Moon God Khonshu. Little else is known about the upcoming series.

First appearing in "Werewolf by Night" #32 (1975), he was created by Doug Moench and Don Perlin. He was the antagonist of the issue, as he was contracted to kill the Werewolf, Jack Russell, by a villainous group of businessmen called ‘Committee’, who wanted to turn Russell into a weapon. Upon realising the shady group’s agenda, Moon Knight allied himself with the Werewolf by Night and became a hero from then on, even receiving his own series due to his popularity.

Marc Spector the Moon Knight took on the role of an antihero within the Marvel universe as he is a brutal character with a very flexible morality when it comes to punishing criminals and supervillains. He is second only to The Punisher, in terms of brutality and over the years has committed many dark acts that would make some people’s skin crawl. So, let’s see 10 insanely dark moments Disney will never show…

During the most recent Moon Knight run by Max Bemis (2017 - 2018), Marc Spector joins a secret group of uber-sadists known as the Societe des Sadiques in order to track down his uncle, who is a former Nazi and a serial killer. In order to be accepted by the group. Moon Knight is then subjected to a series of trials in order to prove his level of sadism.

In issue 198 his first trial is to kill a dolphin infected with rabies. However, he is neither informed that it has rabies or that he has to kill it.

After two weeks, locked in a room with the dolphin, he determines he has to kill it and leaps into the tank of water, crescent darts in hand. The next panel reveals the scattered remains of the massacred dolphin as he eats the raw flesh of the dead animal.
