Terror is at the edges. It exists at the boundaries of our bodies' territories, where pain melts to pleasure. It can't be put back in—like shit, like puss, like blood. But only some bodily waste is polluting. From sperm and tears come life, sometimes.

Terror is a doing, not doing, undoing.

But terror isn't as much as it is. It's as small as it is big.

It's temporary. It's reversible. It's deferred.

IN THIS ISSUE: Dr Death, inventor of a 3D-printed portable suicide machine, on mortality. Mami Onami, former Children of God member, on morality. Jacob Reynolds on flying, being a father, and shooting Gummo. Previously unseen sketches from ex-Burzhum associate Jannicke Wiese-Hansen and Goosebumps illustrator, Tim Jacobus, and breaking into the Gibbons Twins archive. Personal stories about being haunted by an Ian Rush lookalike you saw flattened by a train, reflections on the complexity of your so-called ‘Slag Nan’, and ‘Every Time I’ve Shat My Pants’ by Emily [Redacted]. Fashion editorials shot from the comfort of a bed, a giant alien genital-monster centrefold, and the most unhinged iPad review ever written. Infected boob jobs, drafts for a suicide note, the madness emitted from your town's Victorian asylum, a noise that won’t leave you alone—and so. much. more.
