Set during a similar period of Daredevil: Reborn, but not really a tie-in, the one-off special The Punisher: One Last Kill catches up with a spent Frank Castle (Jon Bernthal) having killed off various members of the Gnucci Crime Family seeking retribution for the death of his own. Having completed his quest, the special amps up the character’s inner demons and PTSD having him hallucinate various people in his life over the course of the show including his daughter and those who he served with. I guess this is what we are getting instead of a second season of Moon Knight.

Marginally advancing the season’s plot, “Shoot the Moon” feels mostly like a filler episode where we get to spend time with various characters and get to see a couple of sequences highlighting our hero’s new costume while also showing us that Karen Page (Deborah Ann Woll) has learned a few things from her boyfriend. The Northern Star is still pivotal to the plans of both heroes and villains, but no real movement is made. Bullseye (Wilson Bethel) is confirmed to be the man who saved Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) but the reasons for his actions, and later attack on the anti-vigilante squad, aren’t explored.
