Description
The Nov-Dec 2012 issue of Black Static, number 31, is horribly unseasonal. The medical benefits of smoking mummy fingers, unrequited grief, the curse of the Scottish Play reaching beyond the stage, or worse feature in Jackson Kuhl, V.H. Leslie, Steven J. Dines, Seán Padraic Birnie, Steven Pirie or James Cooper's stories.
So its contents are new novelettes and stories by those authors and Stephen Volk and Christopher Fowler supply their usual comment columns. Peter Tennant reviews books. Tony Lee reviews DVDs/Blu-rays. Front and back cover art is by Richard Wagner, and interior illustrations are by Ben Baldwin, David Gentry, Rik Rawling, and Vincent Sammy.
As this is slightly late to be uploaded some reviews are available and Mathew Dent wrote "If anyone reading this thinks that horror is just ghosts, gore and serial killers, I urge them to get hold of a copy of Black Static. I'm a firm believe that you can tell a lot about a society from the things that terrify it, and the stories which are on the front lines of the genre at the moment are a psychological, introspective crop focusing on grief, lost and exclusion. Make of that whatever you like, except that it does lead to some brilliant storytelling."
