New Streaming: Moon Knight- Episode 3

 A bit off-schedule this week due to work and pre-set Scheduling, but we're back for more...

With Marc in control, MK is in Egypt trying to find the Tomb.

Naturally, he runs into Layla again and they must work together.
Things aren't made easy when the sources of information either get killed- by a possible 3rd Personality- or let themselves die to hide the information.

I still enjoy that blackout bit to cut around Fight Scenes when it is used this sparingly.
The duo- naturally- run into trouble, leading to another 'summon the suit' moment and fight.

I'm still impartial to the original design, but Mummy Moon Knight is growing on me.
Things get pretty damn weird by the end, so I'll just say this...

It gives 'reach for the stars' a whole new meaning.

To get context, watch the Episode.
Another strong Episode- what a shock.  The Show continues to be good, so I hope this isn't boring to talk about.

The Egyptian Setting is a nice change of pace for these kinds of Shows.  It feels very authentic, which I know is something that they were going for.  I read the critique of WW 1984 by someone on this Show, yes. 

They continue to build the Mythology here nicely as well, going more into the Avatars and their purpose.  I think we need more context as to why they aren't exactly super-helpful in the long run though.  Is it just direct corruption?

Regardless, this one has it all.  As a bonus, it features the Lead from Hannibal Rising (who tragically died recently), so now Marvel can complete the set of Actors that Played 'Hannibal Lecter.'

Next up, do things get easier when they get in the Tomb?  Don't answer that- we know the answer.  See you then...
