I can't remember if Frenchie is up there in the helicopter, though I can easily check! Never mind, that volume is in the basement. I don't think Frenchie existed yet, though. Heck, we didn't even know who Moon Knight exactly was. Seems like we still don't, even now, actually. Anyway, this second episode- like nearly all the first couple episodes, takes its time getting going. There is much exposition, more characters introduced, and the villain gets to tell the hero why Ammit is the right God and Khonshu is the wrong god. Each side does have some compelling arguments, but this Ammit sounds a lot like Thanos. And we already know how that sort of thing is going to end. I did like Steven's Fist of Justice suit, it was kind of smashing and not overly ornate like they always have to make the standard superhero suits now.
In Egyptian belief, Ammit was the "devourer of the dead" and was a neutral force. She was used by the gods to attend to sinners. Or at least who the gods thought were sinners. I wonder if she will make an actual appearance. It appears as though she will. Marc's wife was introduced, and she seems quite capable as well. The series is only six episodes long, so they do have to get it going. I'm still enjoying it.
