Synopsis

FORBIDDEN FUTURES has never shied away from controversial subject matter, but for this special issue, we tack recklessly into the riptide of controversy, trawling for taboos to smash. And if you think there's nothing left out there that needs smashing, step into our orifice...

Slide into the daring, dangerous world of Forbidden Futures, are you ready to join us in our wild and wicked ride?

Prepare to be turned to stone by Kim Vodicka's reversal of the male gaze in "Plaster Caster," or be taken on a journey of queer surrealism and tortured romance in Craig L. Gidney's (K)naivety. Greg Bossert perverts the classic tropes of sword and sorcery in The Damsel of Desire, while Brendan Vidito rewrites the DNA of body horror in Mother's Mark.

Michael Allen Rose will take you on a wild ride to Heaven with his orgy-inciting Incubus, Succubus, Iambus, while Ed Kurtz conjures up impish perversity and shows how smoke can be stronger than stone in The Imp and the Smoke Angel. Jeff Strand's Green Suits demonstrates exactly how not to rob a bank, and Matthew Bartlett boldly ventures into new taboo territory in The Kinghole Chronicles Vol. 8 Installment 2: The New King.

Finally, Edward Lee takes us to Innsmouth and proves that Humanoids From The Deep are nothing compared to The Statement of Sgt Justin Jessop of the Innsmouth Police Department. Blasting away every last trace of a familiar fantasy cliché, this one will remind you, as if for the first time, what weird feels like. Only in Forbidden Futures!
