In the April edition of this germinal cross-genre literary and art magazine, our creators take you from the far reaches of space (where magic may or may not exist) to locations as mundane as an office (except there's a tearoom that let's you walk into an alternate, less mundane reality). In this issue you'll also find the first pages of the comic Project Auroral in which a LGBTQ superhero battles to save Earth from subjugation from those closest to her. There's also the second part of our first serialization by R. Z. Held, a great little weird western reminiscent of Robin McKinley and Peter Dickinson. And, finally, there's just some beautiful artwork.

Here's a peek at the content:
