Stories, Art and Cover by Dame Darcy. In every issue of Meat Cake, Dame Darcy slices-and-dices goodies into a comics feast, and this latest issue is no exception. Darcy delights with tidbits such as the histories of rockstar witches Clara Bow and Cleopatra, tips on how to "exercise" (not exorcise) one's demons, and a fairy tale in which accessories revolt and a magical-doll story that evolves into a DIY session -- all rendered in her absinthe-soaked Victorian art style. Peppering these deliciously wicked stories are Darcy's charming characters -- Friend the Girl, Richard Dirt, Effluvia the Mermaid and Mee-Moo, among many others. 28 pages, B&W. Mature Readers. Cover price $3.95.
