American Bandito Podcast Episode image

Scott Pyburn emailed me after he discovered the podcast. He is also someone like me who decided he wanted to get back into drawing and creating again and told me that he was going to be touring with a Comic-Con and one of the stops was going to be right here in Madison.

The day the Comic-Con rolled through town I decided to head on over to meet Scott and check out the artwork at his booth.

Plus, I also talk about how I participate in my first Zine Fest!

I'm going to try and see if I can find out how this game was created, designed and why? Here is what I found out about this game https://candy-land.fandom.com/wiki/Candy_Land_Wiki Candy Land is a board game about children exploring a world made out of candy and other sweets that originally came out in 1949.
