Mandy the Monster Hunter by Matt Warner and Mark Adams

Moon No Panel No Gain. Created by Dan Thompson Writer: Steve Penfold Artist: Steve Penfold Colourist: Chris Zeroes

This is the story of Moon – the Moon – who drops out of the sky early morning every day for the last 2000 years and now brushes himself off, puts on a suit, takes out a gun and fights ridiculous crime. Ever since a botched, drunken Celtic ceremony in 12ad. He was supposed to be a beautiful, blue, moon goddess who can force entire armies in to the ocean with a single gesture but they messed it up and we ended up with a skinny guy with a Moon for a head. He’s got no mouth with which to speak and no face with which to emote, but he can drink a coke float, though nobody really knows how. He’s a surprisingly good shot and is teamed up with a homicidal traffic warden named Shades Rodriguez who says he’s from Chicago when secretly we suspect he’s from Sheffield.  8 years after the events of Moon Volume I, a standard day at the Agency is shattered suddenly as the result of a strange energy surge in West London. They only have a little time to get to the source… will they meet their deadline?!
