Moon Girl And Devil Dinosaur?

The characters are still rather new to the scene as far as comic book characters are concerned. They were created by Brandon Montclare, Amy Reeder, and Natacha Bustos. Making their comic book debuts in Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur #1 back in 2015.

9 year old New Yorker, Lunella Lafayette, got he nickname ‘Moon Girl’ from classmates. This was not intended as a term of endearment, rather it was meant to tease Lunella for always daydreaming and having a so called, “head in the clouds demeanor”.

Lunella had an obsession with the Kree species and technology. To the point she invented a device that could track Kree tech, which led her to find an Omni-Wave Projector. (Did we mention Lunella is the second smartest person in the world? It’s said only Reed Richards has a higher IQ.) Her teacher accidentally activated the device, which brings Devil Dinosaur (a 20-ft tall red T-Rex like dinosaur) to her time, and the two become fast friends.

Soon after this, Moon Girl learns that she is a Inhuman/ Human hybrid known as a NuHuman. After undergoing a process knows as “Terrigenesis” (the NuHuman equivalent to a Mutant’s powers manifesting), she gains the ability to switch minds with her 20ft tall friend at will.

My Thoughts?

Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur are, in my opinion, highly underrated and under utilized characters. With Lunella’s power and intellect combined with Devil’s size and strength, there is not much the pair can not accomplish.

Marvel’s Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur will be a great series to enjoy with the whole family.
