"Moonshadow" is a 1985–1987 Limited series written and created by J. M. DeMatteis and illustrated by Jon J. Muth and Kent Williams as well as George Pratt. The comic was inspired by the Cat Stevens song of the same name. ["Moonshadow #1", DC Comics re-release, 1998, Interior notes]
Plot
Its storyline, an eclectic and quirky science fiction coming-of-age odyssey, concerns the events leading up to the "Awakening" of an adolescent boy named Moonshadow.
Publication history
Originally published as a twelve-issue maxi-series by Marvel Comics under the Epic imprint and the first comic whose art was done entirely by painting, it was subsequently reprinted as a single volume, "The Compleat Moonshadow," in 1998, by DC Comics under their Vertigo imprint. This compendium also includes "Farewell, Moonshadow," a one-issue sequel, also published by Vertigo, detailing Moonshadow's adult life.
