The Comfort of Screams is the latest collection of dark poetry from G. O. Clark. Within its pages you'll encounter ghosts, witches, Nature run amuck, The Old Ones, and, Death. Add to these the coroner's daughter, a mortician, a rock star and a few Japanese Airline hosteses, and the mix becomes complete. Bizarre humor and sinister visions abound, and the comfort you may take from the screams of others, more unfortunate than yourself, is temporary at best.

All of the stories in this issue reflect one of four selected themes by the Founding Editors: History Repeats Itself Fighting Fire with Fire Keep Your Friends Close and Your Enemies Closer To the Victor, Go the Spoils
