As Moon Knight and Werewolf by Night grow in prominence, it's time to bring back their forgotten team as Marvel's answer to Justice League Dark.
Moon Knight's long-forgotten team the Night Shift need to make a return to Marvel Comics - and perhaps the MCU too! While perhaps one of Marvel's least-known groups, the Night Shift are a unique group of heroes, and their foremost members - Moon Knight and the Werewolf by Night - have recently increased their profile in both the comics and movies. At the same time, the Night Shift can give Marvel its own version of a successful DC property.
Solo Avengers #3's 'Tower of Shadows' was released in 1987 from Roger Stern, Bob Hall, Stan Drake, Paul Becton, and Jack Morelli. In the story, Moon Knight is tracking Cornelius Van Lunt, who has been making life miserable for the Avengers. Working on a tip from Jack Russell's Werewolf by Night, Moon Knight visits an abandoned fortress. Upon entering, he is attacked by the Shroud, an antihero who uses darkness as a weapon.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT It's Time for Marvel's Night Shift to Return Moon Knight and Jack Russell have a long history - in fact, Moon Knight first appeared in the pages of Werewolf by Night, hired to kill Jack. From there, he became a fan favorite, thanks in part to a memorable run by writer Doug Moench and artist Bill Sienkiewicz in the early 1980s.
Crucially, there's a hole in Marvel lore for the Night Shift as a team officially dedicated to supernatural threats. The Night Shift could be the Avengers' answer to DC’s popular Justice League Dark - especially since the Avengers only recently offered Moon Knight membership. Marvel’s horror-based characters are just as compelling as DC’s, and a book that brings them together as a unified front would make for great reading.
