Welcome moonfolks!
My name is Giopota and I'm an Italian cartoonist.
I like adventures and LGBTQ+ stories. This is my first attempt to join the webcomic world and I hope you enjoyed it! If so, please consider to check out my social media and support me on Patreon. Your help is crucial and allows me to keep this project going.
Some glossary and notes:
Perigee ~ when the Moon is at its closest to the Earth.
Sidereo ~ Reo's full name.
The approach ~ another way for sailors and fishermen to call the perigee.
Capo Maree ~ the hamlet where our story is set.
The newspaper on Reo's room wall says: First lunar expedition, the 5 aviators who are about to explore the satellite.
The writings that are part of the drawing and aren't balloon speeches are going to be in Italian. It's a world building choice and I'll always use captions where needed!
Thank you so much for reading and see you soon with episode 2!

The Moon orbits so close to Earth that it could be reached by flying, If only a strange force didn’t keep humankind from landing on its desired ground. Reo wishes to reach the Moon someday, but the meeting with a counterpart will lead him to a journey towards his true self.
