Black Static is the 2011 and 2012 British Fantasy Award winning bimonthly horror and dark fantasy short story magazine from TTA Press, publisher of Interzone and Crimewave. Black Static contains groundbreaking dark fiction by some of the world's best writers and most talented newcomers, plus hard-hitting features and innovative artwork. Many recognised authors and artists started their careers in TTA publications and new ones like V.H. Leslie, and Brighton's Seán Padraic Birnie,continue this tradition. However their better recognised peers; Ramsey Campbell, Joel Lane, Nicholas Royle, Nina Allan continue to supply great stories.
The summation of Matthew Dent's review of this issue, Black Static #31, Nov–Dec 2012 is quoted below.
"If anyone reading this thinks that horror is just ghosts, gore and serial killers, I urge them to get hold of a copy of Black Static. I'm a firm believe that you can tell a lot about a society from the things that terrify it, and the stories which are on the front lines of the genre at the moment are a psychological, introspective crop focusing on grief, lost and exclusion. Make of that whatever you like, except that it does lead to some brilliant storytelling."
