## Resource

What happens when one of the greatest stories ever told is reimagined through indie comics? Bruno Catarino returns to the USDN Podcast to discuss Space Odyssey , a sci-fi reinterpretation of The Odyssey that transforms myth into a galaxy-spanning journey. From redefining gods as modern systems of power to exploring the unknown depths of space, this conversation dives deep into storytelling, worldbuilding, and the evolution of mythology. We also discuss Bruno’s live Kickstarter campaign Family and Honour , along with insights into indie publishing and building momentum for successful launches. 🚀 FOLLOW THE PROJECTS Space Odyssey: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/redwulfcomics/space-odyssey-1-homers-epic-like-youve-never-seen-it Family and Honour (LIVE): https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/redwulfcomics/family-and-honour-a-12th-century-historical-drama 📺 WATCH MORE USDN Subscribe and join the Council of Nerds: https://www.youtube.com/@USDN_Podcast 🤝 SUPPORT THE SHOW BCW Supplies (Use Code: USDN): https://www.bcwsupplies.com/?acc=usdn Affiliate Disclosure: USDN may earn a commission if you use our link or code. 📬 BUSINESS / MEDIA INQUIRIES thechairman@usdnpodcast.com
