Moon Knight Teams Up With Marvel's New Infinity Stone Host

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of Marvel Comics under my belt, I must say that Moon Knight Annual #1 has truly taken me by surprise! The team-up between Colleen Wing and Moon Knight was an intriguing twist that I didn’t see coming. The battle against Nightmare in the Dream Dimension was a rollercoaster ride of action and suspense, with the Mind Stone playing a pivotal role.


As a hardcore Marvel gamer, I’m super hyped about the latest team-up between Moon Knight and the newest wielder of an Infinity Stone! You might remember these cosmic gems from the Infinity Saga, where they were a major part of Avengers: Endgame. Unlike in the movies, where they were controlled by the Infinity Gauntlet, in the comics, they’ve developed their own consciousness and seek out hosts. This is all happening in the “Infinity Watch” crossover, and while most of the stone bearers are new faces, an old favorite has stepped up to wield one. And guess who’s their first mission partner? You got it – Moon Knight!

❗Caution: This article reveals key plot points from Moon Knight Annual #1. Proceed with discretion if you wish to avoid spoilers!

In the debut issue of “Moon Knight Annual,” the creative quartet consisting of Dan Watters, Marco Renna, Rachelle Rosenberg, and VC’s Cory Petit are at the helm. Following her connection with the Mind Stone in last week’s “The Incredible Hulk Annual” #1, Colleen Wing is now under threat from Nightmare, a villain hailing from the Dream Dimension. Nightmare aims to seize the Mind Stone from Colleen, and his assault on her consciousness causes her to lose consciousness, leading to her admission into a hospital. While she’s unconscious, Colleen summons Bas, spirits of dreams who were displaced from their bodies earlier. These birds adopt the facial characteristics of the humans they symbolize, and one of them encounters Moon Knight in the process.

As a fervent admirer, I can share my take on the unfolding events: Colleen Wing and Moon Knight gradually unravel the enigma, and they come to the chilling revelation that Nightmare is the root cause of the turmoil. The plot thickens as we find ourselves drawn into the labyrinth of Moon Knight’s dreams, where they confront Nightmare head-on. This ominous entity aims to harness the power of the Mind Stone to cast the world under an everlasting veil of terror, with himself reigning supreme.

Moon Knight, his multiple personalities and Colleen Wing battle Nightmare

Within the dreamscape of Moon Knight, characters Marc Spector, Jake Lockley, and Steven Grant unite to confront the menacing figure of Nightmare. Repeated attacks on Moon Knight’s mind have made him resilient against Nightmare’s mental warfare. Addressing Colleen Wing, Moon Knight remarks, “I find my other selves tend to be a bit grumpy when they rise.”

Though Colleen Wing is accustomed to physical battles, she’s uncertain about confronting dreams. Moon Knight advises Colleen to explore the power of the Mind Stone she possesses, even if she can’t master it yet. Given the current situation, a touch of confusion might be just what they need. As Colleen regains consciousness, she manages to prevent Nightmare from stealing the Mind Stone and employs her newly developed psychic abilities to chase him off with spectral pursuers. A swift strike from her stone-empowered sword sends Nightmare retreating hastily.
