Written by illustrator and graphic novelist Brian Blomerth, with a heartfelt foreword by Paul Stamets, Mycelium Wassonii blends irreverent underground comix styling with heavily-researched history of the life and times of pioneering scientists, R. Gordon and Valentina Wasson. This trailblazing couple popularized the use of psychedelic mushrooms in the United States, beginning with a 1957 Life magazine article, “Seeking the Magic Mushroom”. A vision of science and mysticism, this fascinating tale is part visual biography, part tragic love story as only Blomerth’s Isograph pen can render. Not intended for children.
