    Oscar Isaac has said that Jake is Marc's "rage". So, I would guess he's the end result of him repressing the rage that he felt at his abuse and pushing himself into Steven.

    Watching tomorrow, but I’m tickled with the choice of F Murray Abraham (Salieri from Amadeus for old peeps) as the voice of Khonshu.

    Dr. Zola

    He does a brilliant job with the voice. I thought it might’ve been the guy who voices optimus prime in the movie. Very similar voice
    Peter Cullen probably could have done a great job too.

    Also for people who haven't heard of or seen Amadeus, F Murray Abraham also portrayed Grimmel from HTTYD 3.

    Konshu in the Limo tho 🥶 💧

    100% agreed.

    Anyone else think Mark and Steven should get banned for piloting? One player one account guys

    Brilliant comment, but who is the actual pilot?

    Dr. Zola
    I’m gonna go with Steven, but tenuously so. Mark is the original player, he had the “account” at the start. Steven only started playing 5 or 6 years in, so he’s the pilot.

    But. Steven doesn’t *know* that he’s a pilot, he thinks he’s the original player. So morally, I think Steven is in the clear - he’s not a pilot by choice. But try explaining to kabam that you thought you were the original player, so it shouldn’t be piloting. Overall, the two of them are getting a temporary ban or a points docking.

    Don’t get me started on Jake though

    I thought you would want a penalty for Marc being a merc. ;)

    In the Warren Ellis and Mark Lemire run on MK, the three personas have figured out a way to “get along.” Jake’s MK suit is much more black than silver/white, and he has no moral compunctions about collapsing joints or breaking bones or snapping necks. He’s useful to the hero when a swift and lethal brand of violence is required.

    Interestingly, Steven in that run is Mr. Knight and is the only persona that interacts personally with law enforcement. He isn’t the vigilante Moon Knight (who is a wanted man), so the police chief works with him to solve crimes because (wink wink) he’s simply a “concerned citizen.”

    Call me crazy, but I think WandaVision was better. I think if the finale was a bit different, I would’ve put Moon Knight at #1, but I don’t think it was as good as I was expecting.

    To be fair, that’s partly a result of social media. I knew who Jake Lockley was from the start because I watched a video that mentioned him. If I didn’t know about him, I think I would’ve enjoyed the finale better.

    A similar thing happened with No Way Home. For me, it would’ve been a disappointing movie without Toby and Andrew. But since I was already expecting them, it ruined the surprise a bit.

    That’s why I’m more excited for MoM. I only saw one spoiler, which was Kabam’s fault (thanks for that). I just have no idea what’s going to happen

    Just finished watching this series, and I'm so glad I hadn't read the comics or anything. Seeing all these comments talking about Jake right from the beginning, its a much worse experience imo.

    That first time Marc regained consciousness and was surrounded by blood and bodies that Steven also hadn't taken part in was insane for me. I had a moment of "Holy **** is there a 3rd person?!?!" And was theorising about it through all the other episodes, trying to figure it all out.

    For some people here, it seemed more like the reaction was "YOOO IT'S JAKE THE GUY I KNOW ALL ABOUT FROM THE COMICS" Which I know is also cool but idk I just think the more you know about all these series, or any type of show/movie, the less exciting they are when you actually watch them.

    Also episode 1 was the best.

    hard disagree there, just because you've read the comics doesn't necessarily mean you know how the show or movie is going to unfold. Sure, people were right Agatha Harkness was in Wandavision because of the comics, but they were also completely wrong about Mephisto appearing. Likewise, no one would've known how Civil War or Age of Ultron would pan out because they only used the titles and not the stories from those comics other than 'Avengers fight one another over registration' and 'Ultron threatens the world'.

    This is true, and after thinking about it, I think I've refined my point down to a simple and somewhat obvious statement.

    For an avid Marvel fan, reading the comics enhances the show/film experience.

    But for a non-Marvel fan, and instead a general show/movie enjoyer, reading the comics would lessen the show/film experience.

    They initially ruled it out. But…recent disclosures suggest it’s at least being discussed.
