Episode 2 of 'Moon Knight' titled 'Summon the Suit' continued to impress fans who were already in awe of the latest offing from Marvel. The latest episode delves into the life and times of Marc Spector (Oscar Isaac), the avatar of Egyptian Moon God Khonshu. Much like the season opener, the series had the perfect blend of action, humor, and sentiment and that had ardent hoping 'Moon Knight' would continue in the same vein.

The chapter sees Steven Grant (played by Isaac as well) learn more about Spector, while also meeting his wife Layla El-Faouly (May Calamawy). The episode reveals that the two are related early on, and naturally, she mistakes Steven for Spector until she sees the truth. Ethan Hawke's Arthur Harrow gets some of his past explained as well, but still remains a mystery and a complex character to decipher.

Twitter shared their two cents on the episode. "#MoonKnight continues to be one of the best looking, editing, written MCU shows since WandaVision I’m loving this show," one of the tweets read. "#MoonKnight episode 2 is pretty awesome! I’m getting used to the frantic nature of #StevenGrant. Being an avatar to an Egyptian God and having a whole other persona can’t be easy! The transformation scenes were great! If you wanted more #MoonKnight & #MrKnight here you go!! #Marvel," another wrote.

"#MoonKnight spoilers // . . ok ok excitement aside this episode was definitely not as good but I still enjoyed it, dont like the whole comedic relief mr knight but hopefully steven gets more serious about it later. still loving khonshu and the moon knight action though," one of the comments read. "This episode was so sick. Also Oscar isaac’s back muscles, thanks so much. #MoonKnight," one of the fans remarked. CGI was still an issue. "Wow I liked this episode aswell, CGI was something at moments but I still enjoyed it … also I hope Mr. Knight doesn’t only just appear that episode #MoonKnight."
