This month we begin with mayhem on Mars, artistic antics on Picklock Lane, and a whole carnival of horror. We bid a last, fond farewell to Flora and Fauna in 'The Scouring of Silver Coast.' A young boy willingly places himself at the mercy of an oppressive regime. Lapine aliens return to Earth in force. Another boy encounters a strange artefact. And we have our first encounter of the issue with the cohorts of Dracula. Returning from Mars, one man finds the new Earth even stranger than the planet he has forsaken. Two nineteenth century horrors begin a struggle to the death. Another man engages in the bizarre stalking of a young woman. Fleeve Thides travels to the Valley of Pfoagin. A murderous teacher meets his comeuppance in the chicken shed. A profoundly indecisive man meets with an impossible decision. Another man comes face to face with himself, and doesn't like what he sees. A third goes back to school, but the reunion with a classmate rakes up old memories. And a certain phobia proves inconvenient for another one of Dracula's horde.
