If that’s Mars, I have more pressing problems than it missing a moon. As mentioned, said moon could be hiding behind Mars impressive physique. The problem is that Phobos and Deimos are so small that they don’t have enough gravity to become spheres. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deimos_(moon)
yes and the sun is green and not yellow. and planets and stars don’t have eyes and can’t talk. oh wait this is just a cartoon! and a funny one at that. so, goal reached C:

Is that Mars? Mars has two moons… Phobos and Deimos
The other one’s probably on the Mar’s other side. As any good henchbody will tell you, it’s important to flank.
good call 🙂
You passed up the opportunity to say “henchmoon”?
