Synopsis for "The Bottom (Part I of VI) - The Fun Stuff"
Marc Spector sits in a wheelchair in the empty shadow-filled corridors of his mansion; his body nearly as twisted and broken as his mind. He reflects upon the string of events that brought him to his present condition.
He recalls fighting up against a carload of panicking criminals. Moon Knight landed upon the roof of the vehicle, forcing it off the side of the road. The driver scurried out of the car, and began firing his gun at Moon Knight, but the former Avenger easily evaded the weapons fire. Brandishing a pair of spiked iron knuckles, Moon Knight mercilessly beats the criminal into submission.
Marc continues to reminisce, and he remembers how his bitterness and anger turned everyone away, including his longtime girlfriend, Marlene Alraune, and his trusted colleague, Frenchie. Worse however, Marc recalls his last brutal fight with the man responsible for crippling him – Bushman.
Desperate, Marc pulls himself from his wheelchair and crawls towards the statue of the Moon God, Khonshu. He begs Khonshu to give him the strength to be a hero again.
