Episode 19 - Welcome to New Egypt
The Moon Knight TV show is leaning into Marc Spector’s struggles with Dissociative Identity Disorder, and this week’s books by Jeff Lemire (Le Meyer) and Greg Smallwood (with Jordy Bellaire and Cory Petit) are a deep dive into Marc Spector’s childhood and the formation of Moon Knight’s many DID “alters.” This is a fast moving, dreamlike and/or nightmarish story that finally addresses the issues of identity and mental illness that have been a part of Moon Knight’s history since the beginning.

Declan Shalvey and Greg Smallwood each drew six beautiful issues during this run, and Moon Knight is both returned to his roots and reinvented.

COMICS OVER TIME
Comics Over Time is a weekly podcast where our hosts Dan and Duane read important and interesting comic books that provided characters and story ideas for movies or TV. Then we'll watch how those stories were translated to the big (or small) screen.
We have a lot of great comics, movies and TV shows lined up to share with you. Whether you are a long-time fan of comic books and comic book movies, or are just getting started, we invite you to join us as we look back at the history of these characters and their stories, as well as attempt to connect the dots from comic panels to moving pictures.
