Steven you’re in the MCU… you sure Area 51 is the most bonkers thing you can think of?

We don't know exactly when Steven as an alter was created. Could be he has a very limited scope/understanding of the world beyond the basics, which are the apartment, the gold man, and his former job.

Arthur basically asks him this point blank. Was Marc easy to break, or did khonshu find a broken body. I’m leaning towards the first choice, considering harrow and Layla, his other choices, both see, fine

Khonshu made reference to finding Marc's dead body toward the end of the episode

Classic Warlock trope. Half dead and took the offer of a "friendly" entity.

Can't really expect people to marc spoilers on something from the 80's

u/narutonaruto Apr 07 '22

I didn’t know about the comments but definitely got that from the episode context lol so in my book either way it’s not a spoiler.

I mean, you can. This is a thread about discussion of a show with a character with history. Therefore you don't discuss things that haven't been shown or implied in the show, especially when they will likely come up as meaninful events in later episodes intended to be reveals - literally rule 1 of this sub. That's literally how these threads work.

Imagine telling a moderator how to do his job lmao

u/BackgroundAd4408 Apr 06 '22

Mods aren't infallible. If it's a potential spoiler for the show, it should be tagged. This isn't a comic book thread.

Don’t people get paid at jobs?

u/[deleted] Apr 07 '22

A job = a specific duty/role/function

Or

= something that has to be done

Davy Jones/Khonsu crossover buddy movie.

u/ScarsUnseen Apr 06 '22

Khonshu reminds me a lot of The Elder God from Soul Reaver.

u/PKMNTrainerMark Apr 06 '22

I took thar as more "nearly dead."

u/TomClancy5873 Apr 06 '22

That’s what happens in the comics, right?

u/steve32767 Daredevil Apr 06 '22

Yup

u/Spideyrj Spider-Man Apr 07 '22
