Matthew Medney (Comic Book writer and former CEO of Heavy Metal Magazine CEO)

We're back from our Mexico trip and delving into the realms of comics and sci-fi in our latest episode featuring Matthew Medney, former CEO of the iconic Heavy Metal franchise!

We discuss his tenure at the helm of this legendary brand, as well as his current endeavour, "Mutant Cats," with Gungnir. Our conversation delves into his enthusiasm for creativity, music, and the intriguing crossroads of comics and culture. Additionally, Matthew shares anecdotes from his collaborations with electronic music luminaries such as Kayzo and Knife Party.

We even touch on the punk ethos that influenced his father to leave his job and venture into selling kids' bath toys to KFC!
