This week on “The Tie-In,” Zena and Mark share another episode from the 29th floor while surrounded by the gorgeous skyline of Austin, Texas, and during SXSW no less. They’re chatting with Hector Rodriguez (@el_peso_hero), the Creator of a fascinating comic book series about immigration and more called “El Peso Hero.” He’s also the Founder of “Texas Latino Comics,” and the comic book industry isn’t shying away from climate action. Efforts are being made to showcase work in digital spaces and embrace more climate friendly printing services. This is a fascinating episode for anyone interested in hearing about the hurdles original IP’s must go through in order to get produced as a film or TV show. Hector is currently undergoing that process, so who knows, you might see “El Peso” saving lives on screen! There’s so much to be gained from supporting climate stories like “El Peso,” and they just celebrated a very successful kickstarter.

We love spreading the word about art we want to think will make a difference, and you can make a difference in Hector’s life by checking out some of his comics here.
