This issue we're entering into the unknown and the otherworldly, exploring strange worlds and stranger beings--not to mention the twisted, terrifying depths of some of the weirdest authors' minds. Subversive and thought provoking? Yes. Crazy as a box of Buck Roger's Intergalactic Fruit Loops? Most definitely. Dark, dreamy, and disgustingly depraved? Would it really be Polluto if it wasn't? Aliens, monsters, gods, dreams and nightmares; sex and transformation; strange worlds and the search for truth; death, blood and violence; the future of humanity; astrophobia, metatronians, sphere serpents and zombie amazons. Prepare for the unexpected . . . and remember, in space no-one can hear you dream.

Inside the third installment of "Polluto", the Spectrum Fantastic Arts Award-winning magazine that subverts popular culture, find a plethora of disturbing, kinky and downright bizarre stories, poems and columns from some of the most incisive minds in the contemporary creative world. It features columns by Micci Oaten of "Paparazzi Whore" and Hobo Poets' "RC Edrington", and fiction from Rhys Hughes, Steve Redwood, Deb Hoag, Marshall Payne and Robert Lamb. In this installment, porn, snuff, apocalypses, utilitarianism, the necessity to reproduce, rape, Jack the Ripper, technological obsolence and revenge are all tackled with unflinching verve and the usual dark humour you've come to expect.

"Polluto" returns with a wry look at fairytales, gonzo journalism, sexuality, weird places and ever queerer individuals. It includes contributions from Rhys Hughes, Steve Redwood, Deb Hoag, D.W. Green, Alex MacFarlane, Jim Steel, Lawrence R. Dagstine, Andrew Hook & Allen Ashley, Mark Howard Jones and Frank Burton. Diseased white rabbits, Black Power munchkins, pill-popping schizophrenics, steampunk whores, transsexual Ozmas and scorpion rapists all get the usual ironic and twisted 'Polluto' treatment, with artwork from Ignacio Candel, Flavia Testa-Lytle, Chris Oaten and Dave Migman.
