Moon Knight of Earth-16558, a horseman of Apocalypse

(Extraordinary X-Men #8)

Created by Jeff Lemire (yes, that Jeff Lemire) and Humberto Ramos, this particular iteration of Moon Knight appears in Extraordinary X-Men (Vol. 1/2016), issues #8-11. Honestly, she doesn't say much, but during her few appearances, she sure does manage to look cool. (I’m unfortunately a simple person and I’m not immune to “character design = cool bladed weapon.”)

(Panels from Extraordinary X-Men #9 and #10 respectively)

We don't know much about her and even her name was never revealed, but interestingly enough, she seems to share Marc's resistance to telepathy.

(Surprise Moon Knight from Extraordinary X-Men #9)

There's also this interesting moment where she alludes to Marc Spector and Khonshu, but this is pretty much all we get to see of her character before she's rather efficiently dispatched by Nightcrawler.

(Extraordinary X-Men #11)

but gosh she looked cool in the meantime
