Works for me, *shrug*.

If you had the little daemon superimposed on a photograph of the
lunar surface with the Earth and sun in the background, wouldn't he look
"out of place"? Not to say that daemons-in-space are an everyday
occurence... ;-) He's a cartoon character, but the photograph is
"real". Unless you did some creative RogerRabbit-style shading, it might
look like a bad paste-up job. The shadow fits in perfectly with the rest
of the scenery. Then again, I am confident Mr. Hosokawa's talent will
surmount any difficulty. :)

Since when did daemons need space suits?!? Maybe just give him a
Jetson's bubble helmet with two circular cutouts for his horns.
Definitely gotta keep the tennis shoes though. :)
