Khonshu is the Egyptian God of the Moon and the Night Sky. Banished by the Ennead Council, he sought to avenge those that had been wronged by evildoers through his avatars who were known as Moon Knights. Due to the betrayal of Arthur Harrow, his former avatar who had chosen to follow the goddess Ammit, whose views were different than Khonshu's, Khonshu chose Marc Spector to be his new avatar. Khonshu planned on preventing Harrow from resurrecting Ammit, but eventually failed despite working with both Spector and Steven Grant. He was briefly imprisoned by the Ennead Council, only to be released later by Layla El-Faouly, so he could face Ammit himself. In the aftermath of the defeat of Harrow and Ammit, Khonshu reluctantly freed Spector and Grant from their pledge to him, as they were ignorant that another alter inhabiting the same body, Jake Lockley, would carry on as the next Moon Knight.
