At my house, when somebody is staring off into space, or looking at something absentmindedly, we say the person’s eyes are stuck. Simon’s eyes are just stuck for a bit, maybe?
Security Agent Captain Cassandra Quinn is on assignment to the mining outpost Luna Seven amid rumors of pirates near the outpost. On her approach to the complex, she saw something moving around on the surface of the moon that shouldn’t have been. During her attempts to verify her visual sighting, a mysterious ship blasted her out of the sky. Her story starts HERE.
Meanwhile, miner Simon Tripline is waking up and getting ready for his day while the morning news talks of Terraluna Universal’s plans to project their logo onto the moon, which has drawn protests. The news also mentions rumors of piracy surrounding the disappearance of a shipment of ore from Luna Seven. As Simon walks to work, he sees something strange through a porthole. Did he really see it? Or were his eyes playing tricks on him?
Nothing like a bit of coffee to clear the senses, but even that brings an irritant in the form of Vin Sinclair, who is evidently one of Luna Seven’s top performers on the drill. But is there a dark secret to his success? Simon’s story starts HERE.

Love the machine, great sense of scale. Now let’s just hope Simon wasn’t looking at Vin’s butt.
I like have you have dealt with scale by simplifying the details of the objects not in the immediate foreground. I feel it lends a specific style to Moon Town.
Tom – Simon stares, man. He just stares. And if anyone’s butt just happens to be there, he’s not going to avert his eyes.
Peter – ah, the benefit of laziness – it looks like a “style”! Yeah, that’s the ticket!
Simon’s a bum-looker!? (heheheheh. I love that term. It’s so cheeky. OOOH! Badazing!)
