Description: From back cover: The lunar colony is slowly winding down, like a small town circumvented by a new super highway. As our hero, the mooncop, makes his daily rounds, his beat grows ever smaller, the population dwindles. A young girl runs away, an old lady loses her dog, an automaton wanders off from the Museum of the Moon. Mooncop is equal parts funny and melancholy. capturing essential truths about humanity and making this a story of the past, present, and future, all in one.
