Michael Dolce Talks Ones & Zeroes, Plan 59 Deluxe and Dungeons & Dimwits | Comic Crusaders Podcast # 672

Michael Dolce pulled back up to Comic Crusaders with not one project, not two, but a whole creative three-piece combo meal.

First up is Ones & Zeroes #1 a Sci-Fi / Horror, his recently funded Kickstarter, which is pitched around the idea of an A.I. secretly overtaking humanity. That alone gives the book some timely teeth, because it's playing in that sweet spot where paranoia, sci-fi, and real-world tech anxiety start hanging out together like they pay rent.

Then there's Plan 59 From Outer Space Super Deluxe Edition, which isn't just a dust-off job. Michael's own Substack says this new edition adds 30+ extra pages, includes the new Journey of the Ghoul story, and offers a Kickstarter-only hardcover for collectors. That makes it a genuine event release, not just a rerun with lipstick.

And because apparently Michael hates boredom, there's also Dungeons & Dimwits – Clownpocalypse Now, an upcoming campaign from the Dren side of the universe that's been publicly teased as a story involving demon-possessed clowns. Which, let's be honest, is already enough to make people say "absolutely not" and then click anyway.

Michael's broader public bio reflects a creator who's been building for years across comics, podcasting, and creator-owned work through The Sire, Descendant, and Sire Studios. That makes this episode bigger than simple promotion. It becomes a conversation about momentum, range, and what it looks like when a creator keeps stacking worlds instead of waiting for permission.
