Issue 13 Table of Contents

Issue 13 is a collection about “Births,” but not just the birth of babies. Creation and procreation can give us beautiful and terrible things, or things that carry the balance of both. Some of our characters even behave like gods as they reclaim nature or mastermind heavens based on personal fantasies. The only thing these births have in common is that they all, in some fashion, manage to thwart death—sometimes by questionable means.
