The comic is full of glorious absurdity, usually the product of misapplied concepts, like the time when &#8216;they absorbed knowledge passed to them in utero&#8217; or when &#8216;the DNA is producing visions of a false human past&#8217; or when &#8216;they disrupt and absorb electromagnetic pulses from sources beyond their conveyance.&#8217; It\u2019s not so much science fiction as it is science-y fiction.\u201d<\/h2>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/content\/content\/articles\/to-the-centre-of-the-universe\/\">See more of this review<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.kolajmagazine.com\/shop.html\">PURCHASE KOLAJ #16<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE BOOK<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>The Collagemonauts: Journey to the Center of the Microverse<\/em><br \/>\nby Marty Gordon, Tim Manthey, Craig van den Bosch<br \/>\n10.25\u201dx6.75\u201d, 64 pages<br \/>\nfully illustrated<br \/>\n$9.99 US (print) or $2.99 US (digital)<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/collagemonauts\/\" target=\"_blank\">Collagemonauts<\/a>, 2016<\/p>\n<p>To purchase the book, visit Collagemonauts&#8217; shop at Indyplanet: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.indyplanet.us\/product\/136143\/\" target=\"_blank\">HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Marty Gordon, Tim Manthey, Craig van den Bosch<br \/>\nSelf-published, 2016<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":159,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Collagemonaut-Zine_Cover_Print-web.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p8O04t-2y","_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/158"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=158"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/158\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/159"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=158"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=158"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kolajmagazine.com\/books\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=158"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
