Nameless Digest Issue #3, edited by Jason V Brock & S.T. Joshi, Cycatrix Press, 2013. Info: jasunnistore.com.

“Nameless Digest is an exciting, outstanding biannual journal of the macabre and esoteric. It features articles, artwork, interviews, and fiction from some of the best in the fields of the Weird, science fiction, and horror, both classic and fresh voices, and all new. Nameless also presents outstanding reviews and scholarship of literature, cinema, and comics in a full-color, eye-catching format. The intended goal of Nameless is to meld divergent (even challenging) critical perspectives on a variety of subjects – fiction, music, art, film, social commentary – and present them with the best content (literary, artistic, and, in the case of the website, multimedia) we can muster. Nameless was conceived from the outset as a thought-provoking biannual print periodical, as well as a year-round online destination for the intellectually adventurous. We strive to achieve this via the alchemy of innovative discourse, high production values, and rigorous editorial standards. Though the focus will always be on the macabre, weird, uncanny and esoteric, Nameless will also be a bastion for the under-appreciated idea, the unexplored possibility, the poorly understood concept. We are not a home for the pedestrian, the obvious, the common. It is a state of mind as much as anything, and as such is accepting of anyone that is curious, thoughtful and rational.”
