#Marvel#Marvel comics#Marvel 616#Moon Knight vol. 9#Moon Knight 2021#Moon Knight comics#latest release#Moon Knight#Marc Spector#Jake Lockley#Reese#J A K E#heck YEAH#look at him with his invaluable practical knowledge!!!#and there’s a mustache stashed somewhere in the Moon Knight suit just for him I’m weeping#I love how great of a team player he is#I love the Yiddish#I love the fact that he calls Reese ‘kid’#and I’m definitely not the first person to point this out but the symbolism of when the physical mask is worn is fascinating#(some might kvetch that it’s ‘obvious’ or ’heavy handed’ but so??? if it works???)#Just the idea that only Marc wears the Moon Knight or Mr. Knight masks#the surface-level (and perhaps rather old fashioned and out of touch) interpretation could be that Jake or Steven don’t need the masks#because they themselves are a form of masks but eeeeeeh whereas that might have been true for the Moon Knight comics of the 80’s#I feel like a lot of authors have done a lot to move away from that interpretation#in fact it’s pretty clearly communicated in issue number 14 of this very series (and touched upon again in issue 15)#that while Marc sees Steven and Jake as lovable members of their own social circles he still holds a very deep sense of…how do you say?#Perhaps on better days it could be described as a ‘healthy understanding of his own past and present lethality’ and on worse days#‘a not small amount of shame or self-loathing for what he’s done’#but anyway#all this to say that I’m always happy to see Jake
