A Neo-Noir Conspiracy! Mad Cave Announces Missing On The Moon

Where the Moon’s light fades, darkness reveals the truth…

From writer Cory Crater (The Codex) and Argentinian comic book artist Damian Couceiro (Sons of Anarchy, Planet of The Apes, TMNT), comes MISSING ON THE MOON, your next neon-noir obsession and the latest sci-fi series from Mad Cave Studios!

“Missing on the Moon is a short series jam-packed with so many ideas that it was borderline impossible to give an elevator pitch for,” said Cory Crater. “That’s why we’re grateful to Mad Cave for giving us the green light and allowing us creative liberty with absolutely no holds barred. Damian and I put our all into this, and with such a stellar team behind us, we were able to create a story that aims high, is authentic, and is free of compromise.”
