🔥 ABOUT THIS EPISODE


What happens when a symbol becomes a battleground?


In this USDN Podcast interview, we dive deep into the new Kickstarter comic General Washington & The Liberty Tree #1, a bold and provocative superhero story that explores the weight of legacy, race, and national identity in a country struggling to define itself.

A decade after the original General Washington’s tragic death, the alien symbiont that granted his powers has remained dormant—until now. 

We talk with writer John Luzar about:
⚡ Reimagining patriotic iconography in the modern era
⚡ The mythology behind the alien symbiont
⚡ Superheroes in politically charged times
⚡ Working with Jason Muhr, Mark Englert, Kelly Williams, and team
⚡ The Kickstarter campaign’s goals and stretch plans
⚡ Why this story resonates right now
