10 years ago, Brandon Montclare, Natacha Bustos and Amy Reeder introduced Lunella Lafayette, aka Moon Girl, in the comic book Moon Girl & Devil Dinosaur. Now, Marvel is celebrating that fact with Moon Girl & Devil Dinosaur 10th Anniversary Special #1, a one-shot by Montclare and Bustos that introduces… Devil Girl and Moon Dino?
“Time flies when you’re having fun!” Montclare said via press release. “It was 2015 when a lot of talented creators joined Natacha Bustos and I to bring Moon Girl to life. It seems like only yesterday that Marvel had a brand new super genius super hero–and she was only 9 years old. To celebrate 10 years with the character, the two of us (and a bunch more amazing talents) are celebrating Lunella Lafayette’s 10th Birthday. Join us for the BIG party.”
Added Bustos, “Returning to draw Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur feels like coming home. The series has always been significant to me. It is remarkable how this character has resonated across diverse contexts over the past decade and fascinating to consider that many adult readers of these new pages are the same kids who have grown up with the comic book series initially.”
In the book, Moon Girl is celebrating her 10th birthday… But she has some secret plans of her own, that may involve new characters Devil Girl and Moon Dino. The issue features a cover by Nick Bradshaw, and variant covers by Bustos and Anand Ramcheron. You can check them out below, along with the official synopsis. Moon Girl & Devil Dinosaur 10th Anniversary Special #1 hits stores on April 2.
HAPPY 10TH BIRTHDAY, LUNELLA!
It’s a birthday celebration a decade in the making, and the whole Marvel Universe is invited! But Moon Girl is bringing her own agenda to the party – what could her secret plans be? And when the mischievous Impossible Man threatens to upend the festivities, Lunella has to rally her guests the way only the SMARTEST PERSON IN THE MARVEL UNIVERSE can!
