Marc Spectre has a long history of fighting all sorts of bad guys in the comics, and the fans would love their introduction to theMoon Knightseries. Well, here are some of those powerful enemiesMoon Knighthas faced other than Arthur Harrow.
Arthur Harrow didn’t seem to be much powerful inMoon Knightat the start, but he proved everyone wrong in the last episode.Moon Knightwould have been dead meat if it wasn’t for Layla. Neither of them seems to be strong enough to defeat him alone. But if we go through theMoon Knightcomics, it turns out that Arthur Harrow is not that potent after all. There are plenty of other villains that Marc Spectre has fought who can take the upcomingMoon Knightprojects to a whole new level.
Strongest Villains Faced By Arthur Harrow
1. Bushman
Let’s start the list with a character whose name was mentioned in the series as well. He can be considered a reason why Marc Spectre becameMoon Knight. Although he was his companion of Marc, he almost killed him when Marc tried to stop him from causing a massacre at an archeological site. That’s when Khonshu offered him to become his servant. Raul Bushman’s appearance could scare off the devil himself. After realizing Marc’s Moon Knight identity, Bushman starts to envy him and tries to kill him plenty of times.
2. Shadowknight
Hard to digest, but Shadowknight is Marc’s younger brother and one of the most potent enemies he ever faces as Moon Knight. He killed Lisa Maloney, a woman Marc truly loved. Before dying, she tells Marc about Randall Spector’s betrayal. This incident infuriates Marc so much that he chases his brother for two days and two nights and tries to kill him with a grenade. But Randall somehow escapes the death. Years later, when Randall was on an assignment with his group, they battle Marc and Bushman again. After losing the fight, they all were left to die, and Randall swore his vengeance against Marc. He then gets a lunar treatment which gives him the powers of Moon Knight, and he names himself Shadowknight.
3. Taskmaster
He is one of those guys who could have been a pain for half of the MCU heroes due to his unique ability. The taskmaster’s biggest strength is that he can copy the fighting style of any person. He doesn’t need to practice those moves, and it doesn’t matter how complex the enemy’s moves are. Taskmaster copied the fighting style of Captain America,Moon Knight, Black Panther, Daredevil, Tigra, Punisher, Hawkeye, Elektra, US Agent, Spiderman, and Wolverine. In order to make some easy money, he took the job from the committee to killMoon Knightafter they told him that Marc is alone, friendless, and with no hope of life. The two have engaged in a battle on multiple occasions.
4. Moon Shade
The next most powerfulenemyMoon Knightever faced was Moon Shade. Fighting a completely different enemy could be easier than fighting one’s own doppelganger. Moon Shade is an exact copy ofMoon Knightcreated byMagus. AlongsideMoon Knight, he created several other doppelgangers and made them attack the Four Freedoms Plaza. After teaming up with Franklin Richards duplicate, he tried to absorb Franklin’s powers. But after he was stopped byMoon Knight, he killed Franklin’s duplicate and started to absorbMoon Knightsfrom different realities.
5. Morpheus
Due to his DNA disorder, Robert Markham consulted Dr. Peter Alraune, who prescribed him an experimental, untested drug. The drug reacted with Markham’s DNA, resulting in giving him a destructive psychic ability, an odd appearance, and taking away his sleep permanently. Noticing his newly gained powers, Markham named himself Morpheus. He made multiple attempts to killMoon Knightand Dr. Peter Alraune. Once he teamed up with Bushman and Black Spectre trying to killMoon Knight, but he failed, crashing himself into a helicopter.
