The Struggler (W/ Joel Jensen)

Friend of the show, illustrator, and designer of the logos for both System of Systems and Safety Propaganda joins the show to discuss the legacy of Kentaro Miura a year after the manga legend's death and that of his epic, transcendent, and perfect long-running manga series Berserk. When Miura died in 2021, he had just revealed that Berserk was more than half of the way complete and that he had the rest of the story plotted out. Now the future of Berserk, perhaps the most perfect cultural product of the late 20th and early 21st Centuries, is uncertain. Other topics include Burroughs, Nietzsche, the Xenomorph, Les Rallizes Denudes, Pitchfork rock, and more.
