Two new Marvel heroes have been brought to the big and small screens that may be quite new to many people. The first is the titular character in the Disney+ series "Moon Knight," starring Oscar Isaac, which is set in the main Marvel Cinematic Universe. The other is "Morbius," an unlucky vampiric doctor, played by Jared Leto, who is the newest villain-turned-good-ish guy in the Sony Spider-Man Universe to get a film, after Venom.
These are stories featuring violent male anti-heroes — who are also characters fairly unknown to the general public. When the first Venom was released, The Hollywood Reporter noted: "The MCU makes it easy to be a Marvel fan without having ever read the source material".
