And in the final scene of the (possibly) final episode of “Moon Knight,” audiences finally got to meet him: Jake Lockley. In the comics, Jake is a street-wise cab driver, but on the show, the audience comes to suspect — after Mark or Steven has blacked out when their life was in mortal danger — that Jake is capable of blistering acts of overwhelming violence.
