If you are a fan of A Podcast for All Seasons, you may remember an episode we recorded last fall that featured independent comic book writer/artist, Brian E. Lau. In it, we discussed his ambitious supernatural science fiction tale called, well, Staunch Ambition. At that time, only a preview issue had been available for public consumption, but today we can bring you some exciting news.
The first full issue of the series is on its way, but they need your help. A Kickstarter campaign has been launched to assist production of said issue that has a window of 28 days. If you would like to know more about this project aside from the information we are about to provide and how you can contribute, please click here to be head over to the Kickstarter campaign. I have read issue #0 and recommend that you give this a look.
Below you will find the official synopsis of the series, as well as some sample artwork from Brian E. Lau and Erwin J. Arroza:
Out of the enlightenment, both science and technology are born anew. As mankind continues to advance in scientific knowledge, breakthrough upon breakthrough compound, exponentially. Through this new technology, mankind is able to transcend its physical limitations by passing through the thought dimension and entering the supernatural.
The natural will become supernatural. Welcome… to the new enlightenment!
As an added bonus, I’m embedding the full episode of the podcast featuring Mr. Lau. Not only do you get to hear about his project at length, but it was also one of our best episodes from 2015. It’s well worth your time.
