Here's How To Find The Hidden Free Comic In 'Moon Knight' Episode 1
References, Easter eggs, and callbacks have become important structural, narrative, and production components of the average MCU and DC films and television shows. It helps with the overarching narrative that connects multiple titles. It is also a fun way to pay tribute to the original source as a form of fan service. Interestingly, at least for the time being, Moon Knight does not make any references to the wider MCU. In fact, it seems to completely ignore some events you would expect most people to know about like “the Snap” and the return of the missing people five years later. That is probably a smart move on Marvel and Disney’s part because the character does not have a footing in the MCU. As he is such a complex and deep fellow, focusing on just him for this series seems a great idea.

Superman: Planes, Trains, and the Death of Consent
Growing up Superman was my favorite movie. You know, the one that was made in 1978 and starred the almighty Christopher Reeve. My tiny little mind unburdened from media criticism and fascist ideology was completely enamored with the lore of an alien crash landing on Earth and saving the puny dumb little Earthlings in his fancy red cape. I never even touched the comics, I loved Superman based purely on Christopher Reeve’s performance.

Marvel’s First MCU Was Animated
Marvel’s MCU is quite possibly one of if not the biggest ongoing franchise today, as of April 2022 there are 27 movies and 6 tv shows that are officially part of it (daredevil and the rest of the Netflix shows are still up in the air at this point). Now due to their success companies and studios everywhere have attempted to replicate this with mixed results. Look at DC with their TV and film universe or even the complete failure that was the Dark Universe. But what if I told you this wasn’t Marvel’s first attempt at a joint universe that encapsulates numerous characters and stories, what if I told you they’ve done this once before outside of comics in the medium of television. In the 90’s.
