Answering a distress call, Space Dog is stunned when he realizes he's rescued "AN ASTROCAT!" In this sci-fi adventure, dogs, cats, and mice are "sworn enemies." The risk pays off: "'Many paws make light work, eh, Space Dog?' 'Holy condiments, Astrocat, you're not wrong!'" The text's bantering tone is reflected in Grey's out-of-this-world compositions, which pack lots of detail into each well-designed scene.
