There’s a dark evil force looming over the countless moons of the galaxy, and it’s up to the **Moonflowers** to protect them. They unfortunately never seem able to win against this dark force, but **Hanazuki** is different and discovers that her emotion-powered abilities seem to be able to keep the darkness at bay. With the help of **Little Dreamer** and the **Hemkas**, **Hanazuki** eventually learns to use her mood-driven powers to grow a magical treasure garden and bring beauty and harmony to her small world and is able to stop the darkness from taking over all the beauty and color in the galaxy.  But we’re getting ahead of ourselves here by quite a bit, and that’s why this comic exists. To help re-tell the story from the very beginning introduce **Hanazuki** to a whole slew of brand new fans. ![Hanazuki: Full of Treasures #1 - IDW Publishing](https://www.yayomg.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/yayomg-hanazuki-comic-issue-1-variant.jpg) ***Hanazuki: Full of Treasures #1*** takes it all the way back to the day **Hanazuki** was born and landied on her moon for the very first time. A **Little Dreamer** floats by and hands her a popsicle-like treasure, which the **Hemkas** (those adorable little colorful creatures) immediately steal from her. Unsure of her purpose and totally peeved that her treasure has been stolen, **Hanazuki** heads out to try to get back what’s rightfully hers. Want to find out what happens next? You’ll have to pick up the comic, but thankfully you can check out a few preview pages below. ## PREVIEW: Hanazuki: Full of Treasures #1: [ngg_images source=”galleries” container_ids=”122″ exclusions=”17,18,19,20,21,22″ display_type=”photocrati-nextgen_pro_blog_gallery” override_image_settings=”0″ image_quality=”100″ image_crop=”0″ image_watermark=”0″ image_display_size=”800″ image_max_height=”0″ spacing=”5″ border_size=”0″ border_color=”#FFFFFF” display_captions=”0″ caption_location=”below” display_type_view=”default” ngg_triggers_display=”always” captions_enabled=”0″ captions_display_sharing=”1″ captions_display_title=”1″ captions_display_description=”1″ captions_animation=”slideup” order_by=”sortorder” order_direction=”ASC” returns=”included” maximum_entity_count=”500″] Awesome, right?
