Dark Matter Magazine Issue 012

Contained within this anthology are dark stories and works of art that explore the shadow side of reality. They are disturbed works that journey hopelessly through the downtrodden fringes of society, across the deepest reaches of space, and into the darkest, most troubled corners of the mind. Enter if you must, but beware.

Issue 012 includes eight original stories, one reprint story, interviews with authors, Erika T. Wurth and Cassandra Khaw, an artisan spotlight on video game company, Limited Run Games, two art features, and interior artwork by top talent.
