David Heath Jr. was a legend among the fanzine and small press movement of the 1970s and early 1980s. In his long-running sci-fi fanzine No Sex (as in "All Violence and No Sex"), Dave published stories, comics and art by some of the greatest young talents of the time, including a very young Daniel Clowes and Jaime Hernandez. Dave was a fascinating character and a larger than life figure for many of us at the time, a bug, burly, Army Captain who loved to hang out with his friends and draw Vaughn Bodē-style spaceships and aliens. We recorded this chat about ten years ago and planned to do many more but weren't able to get any more done before he sadly passed away. I had to share this with my listeners because it's one of my favorite interviews I've done.
