==Development== In an interview, [[Doug Moench]] recalled the character's genesis: "Somebody mentioned in the office and suggested using The Committee, and that I should bring The Committee back, and then I found out who The Committee were and thought, well they're really boring, I don't wanna use them. And then I thought, well wait a minute, how about if The Committee hires a mercenary to kill the Werewolf. And I thought, yeah that's a good idea, then I create this new character and it won't be these boring guys in business suits, it would be a flashy character. So, I said who is best to kill the Werewolf? Well, someone who uses [[silver]] weapons because silver hurts the Werewolf. And tied to the night, because the Werewolf only comes out at night, and I'll base this character on the [[Moon]], because the Moon makes the Werewolf change, and this is going to be the opposite of the Werewolf, and as soon as I said the Moon I said, ooh I'll have a costume that's just like the Moon, just black and white, jet and silver, no color on the costume."<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4yLD1bSMJw | title=RETROSPECTIVE: Doug Moench Interview (June 2019) | website=[[YouTube]] | date=January 2, 2021 }}</ref> [[Don Perlin]] also commented on the creation of the character, "We were told we needed a costumed character in the book. So Doug and I created Moon Knight. I wanted the costume to be just black and white. Since he'd be on a color page, that would make him a little bit different. He had a silver baton he could use when he battled werewolves. See, he was hired to track down to kill the Werewolf."<ref>{{cite magazine |last1=Thomas |first1=Roy |date=September 2022 |title='Drawing Comics Was in My Heart' |url=https://twomorrows.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=1665 |magazine=Alter Ego |issue=177 |page=12}}</ref>
