Type of magazine: an underground publication, created exclusively by female authors, addressing sex in a raw—and often pornographic—manner. It also features horror, autobiography, and unsettling scenarios, alongside poetry and stories with happy endings. As always, a wide variety of artistic styles coexist, including work by some truly excellent illustrators.
The authors are Swiss, Danish, French, American, German, Italian, Chilean, Canadian, British, Spanish, Polish, and Brazilian—at least among those whose nationality I was able to identify.
In both issues: Karla Paloma.
