Full Moon Fever

by Joe Casey, Caleb Gerard, Damian Couceiro (Artist)

Zeke Kirby knew being a lunar waste disposal technician wasn't a perfect job, but it paid his bills. The downside was it took him away from his little girl, but the upside was he got to go into space. The positive was he got to play real-life astronaut, but the negative was that sewer pipes clog up faster in one-sixth gravity. So when he and his crew make a routine maintenance call to the Intercorp lunar sci-station and find it disturbingly empty, Zeke finds out fast that crap flows downhill... even on the moon. Where'd everybody go? And why are there werewolves everywhere?

Reviews

[Michael]

The high concept is werewolves on the moon. If that sounds good to you, you should read this. If it doesn't, don't read it. Script and art are adequate, although from Joe Casey, I was expecting something a little bit better than what amounts to a dry-run of a paint-by-numbers, sci-fi/horror, thriller.

a fun little story about werewolves on the moon. Nice sense of claustrophobia to create tension as the story unfolds. Art doesn't quite live up to the standard of the story however.

[Matt Piechocinski]

It's alright, but nothing you haven't seen in say Aliens, Deepstar 6, Leviathan ... etc. Space people in peril from xenomorphs.
