Twenty-six unique stories that stretch the meaning of 'eclectic', bound together in one forbidden tome for the first time. Covering most genres, and moving from grim, cruel, and tragic: broken women living on shelves in a library, a Greek goddess and the monster she created meeting in a final showdown, an alien trapped in Patagonia nurturing itself on sickness and religious gullibility to survive and an exiled Martian fixated on Dana Scully. All this, with a few devils, saints, cloned messiahs, witches, and well-educated zombies thrown in for good measure. 'Bubbles of darkness trapped in fluid humour, like hashish suspended in golden wine, a heady and often disturbing brew.' -Rhys Hughes

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.
