On that same page, there's going to be a little surprise release coming out right before the new issue debuts. I'm not going to say much about what it is yet but I am super excited about it. It is slightly evil. It makes my arms hurt. You should be excited. More on that later this week.
Also, I just found this sculpture artist, RON MUECK. Wow:
I want to see that in person.

I am excited for the upcoming issue.
I want to submit again. I want to submit a piece of fiction for the next next issue, not the criticism issue. I'll do that.
Those sculptures have always scared me.
I saw a book of those sculptures once, some didn't have people next to them so it took me a while to notice how big those are. they are pretty awesome.
I am also excited, I enjoy reading LC.
I used to work in a museum that housed the mother with the child on her belly. People would polk at it often and I would yell at them not to. That was a job.
Ron Mueck was displayed at the Brooklyn Musuem last Jan. I went for the Annie Liebowitz but enjoyed his more.
In person they're so real right down to hairs spouting out their arms.
They were so effective at provoking a knee jerk emotional response.
I love his work. "Big Man" in DC was the first thing I ever saw. It's disarming. He was having a really hostile staring contest with Andy Warhol when I went.
I really like Ron Mueck. I've always wanted to see Dead Dad. It's tiny.
He (Mueck) was a part of the Sensation show. You could, for a while, listen online to David Bowie walking you through Sensation. About Dead Dad he said:
"What if somebody steps on him?"
Wow, the level of detail is fucking staggering. Those sculptures look real. I am glad you posted about him. I want to see his work now too.
I must admit though, knowing who I am, the first thing I would do is try to touch the giant vagina. Or at least finally find a damn clitoris.
It's got to be big enough for me to find it.
Or i'm hopeless.
