The Multiverse Guild Podcast With Peter Gunn: Creating Sigma Squad

I would love to hear from you!

Something shifts when a person survives a moment they weren’t supposed to survive. Javier sits down with creator, poet, composer, and entrepreneur Peter Gunn to trace how a near-death experience at seven turned into a lifelong mission: make art that wakes people up. We talk faith without sugarcoating it, the idea that choices carry weight, and why Peter builds stories that challenge “sleepwalking” through modern life.

That mission shows up in Sigma Squad, his graphic novel project that blends spiritual warfare themes with real research and comic-book energy. We get into why graphic novels can reach people who would never open a heavy book, how ancient frameworks and Gnostic texts influence his worldbuilding, and what he wants readers to feel when the last page hits: curiosity, doubt, and the urge to look deeper. If you care about faith-based storytelling, indie comics, or writing that can hold both fun and meaning, there’s a lot here to steal for your own process.

We also go practical. Peter shares discipline lessons from childhood obesity to bodybuilding and 20 years in the Air Force, plus concrete advice for creators navigating publishing contracts and ownership. Then we jump into AI in music production, remote band collaboration, voice tools, and the line between helpful technology and hollow emotion. We don’t treat AI like a savior or a villain, just a tool that still can’t replace the human element that makes art land.

If this conversation challenges you or helps you build something, subscribe, share it with a friend who creates, and leave a review so more writers, musicians, and indie artists can find it.
