Notes:

Marc Spector is the chosen Knight of Vengeance for Khonshu, the Egyptian God of the Moon. However, he also suffers from acute dissociative identity disorder, which supposedly helps him properly represent the different aspects of his God. This often makes it deliberately vague as to whether Moon Knight is actually communing with his God or merely with an aspect of his own personality that represents Khonshu for him.
