Two emperors are at war for Rome, the capital of the known world. Constantine marches under the cross: to intimidate his enemies, consumating a new universal identity. The city lacks confidence in Maxentius who rules under siege. A high-ranking enemy spy offers him a way to usurp Constantine. The battle that follows will have a decisive impact on the future of humanity.

Comic book 'Intrusive Thoughts' is the product of Anthony Stokes, an author whose skills wonderfully convey a complex, emotional journey. Anthony joins Andy for a discussion around his creative process, inspirations, and how mental health is playing a role in today's media. 'Intrusive Thoughts' opens the door for conversations around mental illness and disability, which in itself can form the grounds of an open space for developing creativity. We talk about pop culture and the personal impact it's had on its audience, and why it speaks to us.
