“Missing on the Moon is a short series jam-packed with so many ideas that it was borderline impossible to give an elevator pitch for. That's why we're grateful to Mad Cave for giving us the green light and allowing us creative liberty with absolutely no holds barred. Damian and I put our all into this, and with such a stellar team behind us, we were able to create a story that aims high, is authentic, and is free of compromise.” – Writer, Cory Crater
