Kid Cudi‘s classic song “Day and Night” can be heard over the trailer, and it could tell the story of just who Marc Spector’s villain of the series, Harrow, can come to represent.
We’ve pontificated that Harrow will eventually become Moon Knight’s greatest nemesis, the Sun King; with “Day and Night,” we get a better look at the mythical clash that awaits the two characters.

Moon Knight is known as the fist of Khonshu, the Egyptian god of the moon that imbues the vigilante with power, mirrors the Sun King, who gets his power from the Egyptian god of the sun, Amon Ra.
Amon Ra is the father of Khonshu, and the two characters represent the mythical battle of ancient Gods that should exist as a vital part of the narrative in Moon Knight.

We can only hope that the series will bring a massive showdown between the two gods, with Isaac’s Spector and Hawke’s Harrow giving fans an incredible battle of ancient power.
