Scenes of Mild Peril

Across thirty disquieting stories, we'll encounter such tales as, "Sovereign's Last Hurrah," featuring a team of retired super-powered villains embarking on one last caper with their legendary super-hero rival. "A Comedian Walks into a Bar," in which a hungry and ambitious amateur learns that the fabled secret of comedy may come attoo high a cost. "83," where the interview for a dream job becomes a nightmare, and "In Vino Veritas, In Vino Mors," where a dying wine collector takes part in a very special tasting session, courtesy of a very special visitor. You'll encounter possessed little fingers, magic swords, sanity-defying factories, stranded astronauts, lovecraftian librarians, virulent plagues, and pork scratchings ... all with a twist in the tale, courtesy of the equally twisted mind of David Court.
