PSYCHONAUT 5: A NEW TRIP!
Hi All! I am raising funds to publish the next issues of my two mind-bending comic book series: The Simon Myth Chronicles: Broken Chalice and Psychonaut Presents! After four issues of Gnostic quests and psychedelic journeys, I am ready to bring you the next chapters in both sagas with Issues #5.
The Simon Myth Chronicles: Broken Chalice #5
In this Gnostic epic, we follow the manic modern-day wizard Simon Myth. Working for the secretive Department of Anomalous Affairs and Thaumaturgy (DAAT), Simon navigates a world filled with supernatural enemies and unexplained phenomena.
Issue #5 continues Simon's most perilous adventure yet. The reality-shattering events of the past four issues have changed him forever, and he's about to face a perplexing paranormal problem unlike anything he's ever: the past of the Chalice! Get ready for more action, more magic, and more secrets that will redefine Simon's world!

Psychonaut Presents #5
Psychonaut Presents is a psychedelic anthology series that is part memoir, part mind-bending romp through various imaginal worlds. It's a deeply personal journey based on my own experiences with consciousness exploration, including ritual experiences of psychedelics mixed with other trippy fictional stories.
Issue #5 takes you on a new foray into the wyrd. Explore some of hte original experiences that defined my interests in shamanism, occultism, and mind-exploration. This issue is packed with true experiences and supplemental fictional tales that will challenge your perception of reality and also be a hell of a fun ride!
