Larry Stark was a fan of E.C. comics back in the day. That is, when comics were either considered "kid stuff" or little bits of poison to corrupt young minds, Larry took E.C. seriously. This volume reproduces the typescripts to his "Elegy" to the E.C. New Trend line and to a radio play set in the Entertaining Comics offices.
A sinister 15th century black slate castle in north-central Portugal, overpopulated with insidious, all-knowing crows, is the setting for a mysterious inscription on a leper priest's gravestone. It reads: Fr. Joaquim, SJ, 32312 This dismal, dark edifice formerly served as a leprosarium for afflicted monks, now long dead, who pursued the practice of mining local ores during the WWII period. A Texas geologist and a French Jesuit priest are drawn into these ancient, crumbling ruins and unexpectedly encounter a mysterious, elderly black Mozambican priest on a mission of his own. The combined efforts of this unlikely triad decode the cryptic message from the grave and the trio is compelled to investigate an ancient Roman mine beyond the black castle walls. When the geologist descends into the hellish, forbidding depths of a near-vertical mine shaft, he makes a shocking discovery that cries out for justice.
"Felicity" is at once a philosophical fable, a dream, and a prose-poem. The main character of this surreal and symbolic novella finds herself in a world of bizarre happenings, irrational dream logic, and paradoxes in time and space. She doesn't know what she is or where she is, she doesn't know why she is here or how she came to be here, but she must learn to live in this world and give meaning to her life. Told in cadenced prose that is aesthetically simple, lucid, and spare, this unique metaphysical fantasy explores the nature of dream and reality, consciousness and time, knowledge and art.

Legend has it that Ernest Hemingway bet his fellow writers at the Algonquin Round Table that he could write a complete short story in six words. The other writers ponied up ten bucks each, and Papa claimed the pot with possibly the saddest six words ever written: "For sale: baby shoes. Never worn." In this collection, Mario Milosevic offers 41 of his own very short stories. By turns funny, fantastic, witty, fabulous, and poignant, none are as brief as six words, but they all pack a punch and are guaranteed to intrigue, amuse, and move.
