Apologies for this July–August issue appearing out of sequence in that we have not posted issues 39 and 40 yet. Those two issues have been delayed by a hard drive fault and some files were lost. We are working on recovering these files but, meantime, we hope Black Static 41 fills the gap.
Issue 41 has new horror and dark fantasy fiction from Tim Waggoner, Vajra Chandrasekera, Ralph Robert Moore, Carole Johnstone, Leah Thomas, Ray Cluley and Thersa Matsuura. Richard Wagner provided the cover art and some interior illustrations along with Vincent Sammy, and Joachim Luetke. The usual features are present: Comment in Coffinmaker's Blues by Stephen Volk and Blood Pudding by Lynda E. Rucker; Blood Spectrum - Tony Lee's DVD/Blu-ray reviews; Case Notes - Peter Tennant's book reviews which includes a substantial interview with A.K. Benedict, and Mike O'Driscoll's Silver Bullets weird detectives on and in the box investigated.

Essentially Black Static is a fiction magazine containing short stories in the horror and dark fantasy genres but it covers other aspects of the genre via comment columns, reviews of books, movies, DVDs and TV.
