I've watched the first episode, but haven't had a chance to watch more than that thus far. It was a pretty good first episode, but not sure how it fares after that.

I watched the first 2 episodes and so far it is good.

I will have to wait for Barry for more details about this character.. I don't have any ideas about him or anything.

I have seen 4 episodes so far and enjoying them..

To me, this is similar to Batman, the look and "darkness" so to speak but the Moon Knight character with the multiple personalities make it unique and the madness that is part of the character make him more lethal than Batman...

Saw this on the web when discussing batman vs moon knight.

Still haven't watched past the first episode. Too many other things to watch that have a higher priority.

My wife and I watched it. Easily our last favorite of the recent Marvel productions so far. I had no idea what was happening at some point and it just kind of spun out. We finished just to get it over with and see if anything made sense to us at the end. There was "something" there I guess but the way it was told made it hard for us to enjoy.

Series become too time consuming. I pretty much don't watch any anymore. Movies are more like hot one night stands. Wham bam, thank you ( insert studio name here ). Other than movie series.

Characters, such as the Moon Knight, kind of get at least two origin stories. They are often introduced as villains (Black Widow, Hawkeye, Scarlet Witch) and when they prove very popular they turn into heroes and all  is forgotten.

Marc Spector was a mercenary, soldier and all around tough guy when a group of villains create a costume full of weapons (sort of like Batman’s utility belt) and offer him $10,000 (hey this was 1975! That was a lot of money then) to capture the Werewolf by Night and his family). He had no great superpowers, but might have some tracking abilities of a werewolf.  Marc was not a murderer and turned against the bad guys in the end. As he became more popular, he appeared in the Defenders (a group like the Avengers) and eventually got his own title. Then they developed his back story even more. He is a Batman type crime fighter.

It has been nearly 50 yeas since he was first introduced and there have been dozens of changes to the character. But it starts out that he was the son of a rabbi and worked for the military and CIA.
