Marvel bringing Moon Knight to TV


Marvel is partnering with No Equal Entertainment, a Canadian production company, a television show based on the comics character Moon Knight. For those of you unfamiliar with the Moon Knight, his real name is Marc Spector. Spector is chosen by an ancient Egyptian god named Khonshu to be its vessel in the modern world. Spector adopts a number of identities, from a playboy millionaire to a New York cabbie, in order to infiltrate the underworld and dons the Moon Knight garb when kicking butt is needed. There's no timeline for when the series will hit TV but this is fertile ground for a dark series dealing with a number of issues.

Gah... This character has been killed off more times than any other, why reanimate his wornout corpse again? Oh I get it, he can party with "immortal squeegee girl" or whatever she's called; they can get run over by steamrollers together as their own version of going out on a date.
