Life is a peach when you have a moon for a head. Your head can wander out of the atmosphere into galactic reveries, drift blissfully across star specked plains, roll lazily into jungles with undiscovered artifacts or soar closer than Icarus to the sun s seething glare. Snap! Back to reality the world of a teenage boy is a much crueler place, the taunt crater-face is a very literal insult and the cool kids have an unremitting supply of abuse. And so, as the law of divine providence state, when the school talent contest takes its yearly turn, it is the role of the outcast to take part. Thus, Joey Moonhead begins a stellar mission to create a music machine that rivals all those in existence. An imaginative and visually poetic take on the stock American high school drama, Moonhead is a subtle blend between Wayne's World and Ovid's Metamorphoses. Rae's graphic novel is enriching and powerfully illustrated.
