The second episode of the Moon Knight series deepens various characters and also introduces a new character that draws a common thread from the complexity of the first episode. Several easter eggs can be considered quite surprising because they are directly related to the comics and the lore of the Moon Knight series itself. In addition, there are Easter Eggs that reveal several characters in Marvel Cinematic Universe films. No need to wait any longer, let's dig in!

1. A QR Code That Will Lead you to Moon Knight's First Issue

QR Codes have become a common thing now, even in movies, the QR Code that is presented here is real and you can try to scan it. In the Moon Knight episode 2, there is a QR code found next to the number "43" on Marc Spector's storage locker. If you try to scan the QR Code, it will immediately direct you to the Marvel comic book giveaway for the Werewolf By Night edition where Moon Knight made his first debut.

2. Steve Grant's Passport Has the Same Address Similar to the Comic Version

The MCU version of the Moon Knight is different from the Marvel Comics version, but not everything in the comics is adapted differently in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. For example, the original address of Steve Grant on his passport. In episode 2, it appears that Steve Grant has the same origin as his comic book counterpart, namely Chicago, Illinois USA.

3. May Calamawy's Layla is Marlene Alraune in the MCU

Despite the difference in names, MCU theorists have long theorized that Moon Knight's May Calamawy's character  as Layla El-Faouly. Moon Knight episode 2 has revealed that Layla is Marc's wife. Both characters also have a deep interest in Egyptian culture, and Layla as Marlene will also discuss how she found out about Marc's Moon Knight transformation. It's possible that later Marlene will take him to Khonshu, just like what happened in the comics.

4. A Captain America Reference

In episode 2, Layla admires Steven's book collection and almost all of it. What's interesting about it is when she is standing next to a certain shelf, and on her back is a book titled "The Man in the Ice." The Man in the Ice" in the MCU is the famous introduction of Captain America because Steve Rogers was found frozen and still alive when he was melted.

5. Police Detectives Named Bobbi and Billy

Moon Knight episode 2 introduced a pair of detectives named DC Fitzgerald and DC Kennedy. However, at a glance in the final credits, it has been revealed that the detective pair have real names, Bobbi and Billy. In the comics, Bobbi and Billy are orderlies who work at a hospital where Marc Spector was imprisoned by Ammit.

6. Marc Spector's File Refers to the Moon Knight's Comic Debut and Producer

When Bobbi once tried to read Marc Spector's Interpol file, she sees two easter eggs. The first case file number is 1975, which is the year Moon Knight debuted in Werewolf By Night #32. Second, the assigned agent is "Nick Pepin", who has been with the franchise since Captain America: Civil War, and specifically served as "production & development manager" on Moon Knight.

7. Marc's Character Revealed

In Moon Knight episode 2, it was revealed that Steven Grant was trapped in his own body because Marc had mastered it. Marc Spector actually had to, because, at that moment, there was no other way but to do so, and it was also because the Scarab that was being fought over between him and Arthur Harrow slipped out of his hands. Now the Scarab has fallen to Harrow who was the first avatar of Lord Khonsu, the Egyptian Moon God who currently picks Steven as his avatar.

8. A Reference to Arthur Harrow in the Comics

While taking Steven on a tour around his headquarters, Arthur Harrow played by Ethan Hawke introduces Victor, a cult member who graciously provides everyone with a delicious lentil soup recipe. Then, Harrow mentions Victor is from Yucatan, and the word "Yucatan" itself refers to the 1985 comic Moon Knight #2, where Marc Spector hunts criminals, and there's a line that says "Yucatan"

9. Line That Refers to Rhodey's Idea to Thanos

Attempting to sell Ammit's brand of preemptive justice to Steven Grant, Arthur Harrow begins a debate about "Baby Hitler" by saying "You can travel back in time and kill Hitler as a child, could you?". This is indirectly like alluding to Rhodey's idea in Endgame, where Rhodey had suggested killing "Baby Thanos" instead of stealing the Infinity Stones in the past.

10. Arthur Harrow's Magical Abilities are the Same as Agatha Harkness'

In episode 1, Arthur did bring out his minions but it is not clear how it happened, but now it has been revealed in episode 2 how the spell from Arthur Harrow works. What's interesting about Arthur's spell is the color of the magic. Arthur's spell is purple and it looks pretty much the same as the magic spell possessed by Agatha Harkness in the WandaVision series. Was it a coincidence or was there a story between the two of them?

11. A Reference to Falcon and The Winter Soldier

When Moon Knight and Layla fight against Arthur Harrow's summoned jackal, there is one easter egg in the scene. A red Double Decker bus stopped in the background when Moon Knight was thrown. The bus showed a billboard on the side, and it has an advertisement for "GRC". The GRC stands for "Global Repatriation Council" and was introduced in The Falcon & The Winter Soldier as an organization that copes with the aftermath of Thanos' snap, with 50% of the population suddenly disappearing and returning five years later.

12. The Bus Number is the Same as Moon Knight First Issue

In addition to showing the GRC, the bus also has the number “WBN0032”. That number is actually not just a random number, because WBN means "Werewolf By Night", and number 32 is the 32nd edition of the print, referring to Moon Knight's first debut. So, indirectly the bus code "WBN0032" is an abbreviation that refers to the comic Werewolf By Night #32.

13. A Different Suit

Moon Knight episode 1 debuts the superhero with its iconic suit, and the design is very similar to the comics. In episode 2, when Steven Grant tries to summon his suit, his Moon Knight costume instead becomes a white tuxedo with a Dr. Manhattan lookalike mask. The design actually is based on "Mr. Knight". This version was introduced in 2014 by Warren Ellis and Declan Shalvey.

14. The Death of Marc Spector

In episode 1, Marc's death was mentioned. However, episode 2 reveals the details of the agreement between Marc and Khonshu, and how the Egyptian god brought back his would-be avatar from the dead in exchange for slavery. It can all be attributed to Konshu who surprisingly appears in the episode.
