MOON COPS is a series by C.T. Phipps set in the Future Punk shared universe of his Agent G, The Cyber Dragons Trilogy, Space Academy, and Lucifer's Star series. It is an Affectionate Parody of Cyberpunk police procedurals like Robocop and Blade Runner.Neal Stephenson Gordon is a Martian Detective who turned against his fellow cops and was exiled from Antactica (literally). However, he's recently been transferred and now has a job waiting for him on an even worse Wretched Hive: the moon. Meeting a beautiful ex-TV starlet and a talking dog, he finds an unusual set of police working against the violent corporate-dominated cyberpunk settlement.Neal may have been a slightly tarnished cop with a "flexible" morality but he had his rules and was very good at his job. However, the past is not something that's easily left behind. The Slaver's Guild and corporate conspiracy still dominates the future of the world. There's also The Remnant of the former tyrannical government of Earth, called the Neo-Militarists, that constantly schemes to regain power. What's a detective to do? Whatever it is, it will be done with a lot of wiseass commentary. | |

Hardboiled Detective | |
| Moon Cops on the Moon / int_166f1ed6 | comment |
Hard Boiled Detective: In addition to parodying Cyberpunk this is what the series parodies most with Neal coming off as a 1970s (or Eighties) private detective transplanted to the distant future. He regularly ignores the rules, is surrounded by corruption, wears a hat and trench coat, and is a Deadpan Snarker. | |

Gangbangers: There's several thousand gangs on the Moon and they often have thousands of members as well. Most of these are related to the larger criminal syndicates or do work for the megacorps. The Cyberpunks are a Transhuman Treachery bunch of cyborgs that forego their humanity to become dangerous murderous thugs. The Fleur de Lis are a French-Algerian gang that are now aligned with The Syndicate and run drugs as well as prostitution. The Golden Tigers are a gang involved in human trafficking as well as heavily involved in the trade from the moon to Mars. | |

Internal Reformist | |
| Moon Cops on the Moon / int_a2c7a31 | comment |
Armstrong is the questionably sane AI who runs the moon's life support among other functions as well as the partial owner of Ares Electronics. However, it primarily has the function of protecting humans and is attempting to be an Internal Reformist to save humanity as a whole. | |

Layered Metropolis: The moon is one of these with Luna City being the richest and most prosperous part on the surface (with a protective dome), the much-less successful Crater Town underneath it, and the Depths that are a Wretched Hive. | |

Dirty Cop: Every cop on the moon to the point that the police don't get measured by whether they're dirty or not but just how dirty they are. Neal is actually listed as relatively honest by the fact he only takes bribes to ignore what he doesn't think should be illegal in the first place. | |

Cyberpunk | |

Cyberpunk: The Moon is the last part of the setting that is still under this as it remains under the control of greedy corporations, a corrupt military dictatorship, and ruthless crime syndicates. It's also full of bio-enhancements, AI, and incredibly advanced technology. The rest of the setting has entered into a state of recovery with it eventually becoming a Space Opera setting as seen in Space Academy and Lucifer's Star. | |
