Dark Matter Magazine promises to bring you the best in dark science fiction and horror for seven issues per year in print and digital. Every issue boasts at least eight original stories, two art features, and one reprint story for a minimum of 40k words and 130 pages of content, fully illustrated and printed in full-color on thick, premium-quality paper. Most issues include 1-2 author interview with industry-leading novelists or other creatives, and past issues have even included short 4-page comics, serialized fiction, and dark sci-fi and horror poetry. Every original fiction story is also adapted eventually for audio, both as an ad-free MP3 download and as part of our new streamable podcast, which is currently available for free on all major podcast providers. Learn more about the podcast here.
Print and digital subscriptions are available as part of our Dark Matter membership program.

Letter from the Editor: Property of the State
If you like weird, strange, and darker sci-fi (think more 'alien' and 'the thing'), then you'll love dark matter.
Awesome magazine. Looking forward to future issues.
