Dark Matter Magazine Issue 005

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.

The fifth issue of Dark Matter Magazine includes eight original dark science fiction stories, one reprint story, two art features, an artisan spotlight, an author interview with Chuck Wendig, one short comic, and dozens of full-color illustrations throughout.
