When Mike "Iron Buddha" Zastre was last on an episode of the podcast, we hadn’t really figured out the show’s format, and he was mainly working on weird electronic music.
Skip ahead a decade-plus, and he’s now fully jumped into the world of comics and zines, launching the debut issue of the sci-fi/horror-themed 'Heat_Death' at this year’s Prairie Comics Festival. He'll also be at the PCF's zine fair happening RIGHT NOW if you're reading this day-of.
Tune in for a chat about zine culture, mushroom metaverses, DIY publishing, and much more!
