Relistening to Mission to Zyxx and it’s just as dumb as I remember god bless. I’m always and forever a sucker for an absurdist improvised serial adventure podcast. I will never change. Half-way though season 3 right now and felt like drawing the crew.

Definitely used @snuffysbox’s animated pitch designs as a sort of jumping-off point — they’re so soild and I’m a huge fan of her work.

aj-2884 has got to be the funniest character concept of all time. super soldier who defected to become a full-time son. he's 8 years old. he's a grown man. he's the crew's dog (they play fetch with him to distract him). he's the crew's cat (pupils get insanely blown out when he's excited and he plays by batting things between his hands). he had a brief stint as a therapist? he's a leader of the galaxy now

One of the fun things about audio entertainment is that it creates these weird overlapping pockets of spacetime in my memory in a way that other things really can't. If I'm reading or watching a movie or a TV show, I have to be in one stationary location and block out the world around me in order to be immersed, so while I may remember where I was while reading or watching a thing, it's just remembering a fact. With audio stuff, though, I'm often busy imagining and immersing in the thing while physically living through doing something else. So when I think of the forest full of Scarers on Berserker Island, I also think of struggling not to drop my iPod Shuffle in a Starbucks bathroom, and because both of those things are memories now, they feel like they're similarly vivid. I can't picture driving to the aquarium on my tenth birthday without picturing the goofy musical/audio drama version of Venice from the tape that was playing on the car radio. The near-apocalypse in Kepler, West Virginia happened while I was shoveling snow in my neighbor's driveway. I can't watch Fiddler on the Roof without thinking about driving through Arizona because we had the soundtrack on. And now I can't picture the inside of AJ-2884's helmet without picturing a really long bike trail on the edge of the Des Plaines river right before sunset.

I just think if someone introduced AJ to the concept of stickers he'd be obsessed with them

☄️💫 Fans of Mission to Zyxx! 💫☄️

After a full years worth of planning, the Mission to Zine project is finally complete! So many of us gathered our talents together to create this massive love letter to the cast and crew of Zyxx, and it’s finally ready to be shared to the public! This Zine includes tons of fresh art, recipes, stories, and thank you notes from long time fans of Zyxx who wanted to give a little back to the crew that made the podcast that captured our hearts. Here’s just a teeny preview of some of the new work made for this Zine!

Please check out these and so so many more in the link above!! Huge shout out to every one of our contributors, and especially to ThatMichelle whine without their hard work, this project would never have been possible!
