News Moon Knight anticipation thread.

I have to admit, I'm curious how they are going to handle his dissociative identity disorder. It's the kind of condition that tends to be played either for a joke or as a way to make the villain "crazy", so it'll be nice to see a more sympathetic look at a character with it.
It'll be interesting to see if we get any opinions from shrinks or real people with the disorder after it airs.
 
I haven't read Moon Knight since the eighties (and a little bit from his series in the '00s). Was his condition associated with his being Moon Knight or was it something he had prior?

I think it's been played both ways, but I confess I'm not that certain. The current take is that being empowered by Khonshu has fundamentally altered Marc's brain and that his multiple personalities and aspects may reflect the way his brain has been changed. Which rather leaves it open to being either.

Maybe something about the phases of the moon?
 
Is way the costumes kind of wraps itself around him from the comics, or something they made up for the show? Either way it looks cool.
 
There's one thing I'm not real clear on, is Moon Knight a whole separate identity, or Marc Spector?
