Chris joins the podcast for the second time to talk about his new issue 2 of Artificial!

Before Vincent van Gogh could end life on his own terms he is thrust into a post apocalyptic AI-Hellscape. His will to live is then quickly and brutally tested as he narrowly escapes grotesque abominations the likes of which he has never seen. Coming to his aid is the (seemingly) fearless Marie Cassatt who leads them to safety only to be threatened again but this time by a familiar yet very unexpected face: Leonardo Da Vinci!

Our three unlikely heroes are stranded in a strange place surrounded by blood thirsty AI.

Eric O'Connor joins the podcast to talk about his upcoming title Euphoria!

The story takes place in 1989 Georgia, where a serial killer by the name of Arlo Derringer seeks to find himself and what his purpose on this earth is about. In doing so he is baited by another more prolific and experienced serial killer who claims that he is the Zodiac killer, Black dahlia killer, and the Phantom killer of Texarkana. While disposing of a body on Arlo’s “territory” this other serial killer by the name of Gorden P. Murphy offers Arlo a chance to hunt him down, and become the most superior being.

In doing so, Gorden tells Arlo that many other serial killers have tried to kill him, but were also unsuccessful in doing so (7 to be exact. In Correlation to the 7 deadly sins) as Arlo believes this man to be the Devil incarnate. Arlo accepts his offer, and the hunt begins!

Another feature of this book is that the story will follow a Spotify playlist! As readers flip through the book, they can also listen to the music on the playlist to delve more into the mind of our protagonist Arlo!
