"Like, if they just sprang to life right now and asked me a riddle for passage, I'd be thrilled. I'd shit myself, but I'd be thrilled."
-- Steven Grant, Moon Knight: "The Tomb"
Hello again, everyone! It's time for another new episode of The Fandom Zone Podcast! This time, DJ Nik and I discuss "The Tomb", the fourth episode of the Marvel series Moon Knight, featuring Oscar Isaac as Steven Grant/Marc Spector, Ethan Hawke as Arthur Harrow, and May Calamawy as Layla El-Faouly!
In this episode, DJ Nik and I talk about things like Nik and I longing for English fish and chips, Joseph Millson as Alan Jackson on The Sarah Jane Adventures, the episode's Indiana Jones/Allan Quatermain vibe, May Calamawy being Moon Knight's secret weapon, my love for the abrupt shift into weirdness, the Twin Peaks episode "Zen, or the Skill to Catch a Killer", some comics background on Jeff Lemire and Greg Smallwood's storyline where Marc is locked up in a psychiatric hospital, some background on the Egyptian hippo goddess Tawaret, some historical background on Alexander the Great, Layla's potential threeway with Marc and Steven, the stakes being raised with Khonshu off the board, the refreshing role reversal of having Layla being the action hero and Steven being the booksmart one, why you shouldn't mess with Layla, Steven being more assertive about making moves on Layla, wondering if Layla is attracted to Steven or just turned on by seeing a different side of Marc, Arthur Harrow trying to divide Layla from Marc with the revelation that Marc witnessed her father's murder, the reality shift to the psychiatric hospital, our thoughts on who's in the second sarcophagus, the introduction of Tawaret, our favorite quotes of the episode, new Fandom Zone Fanmail from Dave Proctor, Jesse Jackson and Holly Mac, the return of Jesse as Captain Grumpy, the Illinois Nazis in The Blues Brothers, and more!
