MADZINE COWBOYZ & COSMOZ The Official Borderland Souvenir—

MADZINE is a Wild West encyclopedia with cutting-edge AI appeal. It is an academic anthology brimming with frontier lawlessness borderland transformations, and rowdy figures like Billy The Kid, Pancho Villa, and John Wesley Hardin, and it showcases the link between the old western frontier and the evolving cosmic landscape! NOTE Star Trek’s phrase, Space, the final frontier, connects space discovery to the historical concept of frontiers— an uncharted territory. This analogy underscores that, just as old western pioneers faced the unknown on Earth, active astronauts confront the vastness and potential challenges of outer space— symbolizing humanity’s quest for knowledge and understanding.

Honoring Leon Metz’s U.S. Air Force service at Biggs Army Airfield, located on Fort Bliss Base, and in collaboration with Western Writers of America and NASA Edu Resources, MADZINE accentuates our borderland’s military presence spanning from Fort Bliss, Texas, to Sandia Base in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and Area 51 Air Base in Lincoln County, Nevada.

MADZINE COWBOYZ & COSMOZ The Official Borderland Souvenir—

MADZINE features excerpts from Leon Metz's never-released book, Mexican Thunder— The Mexican Revolution, his final manuscript and last research undertaking with Sylvia Gevália Landeros via Travel The Pass. The following is an exclusive passage from Leon's final work : “The Mexican Revolution is frequently perceived by Americans as commencing in March 1916 with Pancho Villa’s startling raid on Columbus, New Mexico. Yet, that raid marked only the “official” U.S. entry into a conflict already underway in Mexico for nearly a decade. What follows then is the incredible, largely untold story of this earlier Mexican turmoil, plus its profound and bloody impact upon the United States/Mexico borderlands. El Paso, Texas, and Ciudad Juárez, in Chihuahua, Mexico, arose as neighboring communities, cities initially and forever, nationally and culturally divided by history as well as by the Rio Grande". -Leon Metz MORE INFO : WIKIPEDIA ARTICLE and LEON METZ TRAVEL THE PASS PROCLAMATION PRESS RELEASE Video 10.22.2024
