Okay, here's how this comic came to be. I had an idea for the joke, I just couldn't figure out how to draw it. So I decided to ask my friend Alex Christophersen. "Alex," I said. "I have an idea for a comic but I can't think of a setting. Where do you think I should have it take place?"

His response was, "The moon." And so I did. And so here it is.

As for their mouths, I was having quite a bit of difficulty drawing mouths that day. I'm not sure why, but I did. So rather than make a thirtieth attempt, I just decided to draw Domo kun mouths on them. It was much easier.

Also, this was the comic that taught me about how bad shading looks when I try to scan it using this scanner. I had to edit this a lot, and you can still see several pencil lines in the crater in the bottom right of the second panel.

And if you don't know who that is in the last panel, you need to get yourself to a video store and rent Anchorman.
