Meatmen Volume 24 Special SM Comics Edition

Summary: Vol.24: SM Special (ouch!)
Review: All the stories this volume focus on SM, which probably will turn on some more than usual while making it too disturbing for others. So it goes!

Highlights includes Zack's 3rd story in 3 issues, the 30-page "Slaves To Lust"; John Blackburn's Coley in "Baitbucket"; Stepan Zubinski's "In The Kingdom Of The Snake God", featuring some of the most stunning artwork in the book, wherein a downed biplane pilot in Africa confronts sexual and supernatural forces head-on (so to speak!); and more cartoons from Gerard Donelan. The rest I could do without, but that's about average for this series. 2 noticeable glitches found their way into this volume: Zubinski's story has pages 3 & 4 reversed, and Blackburn's story ends rather abruptly after only 12 pages. The reason, as I suspected-- it was supposed to be 20 pages (as most Coley episodes in MEATMEN have been) but the editor apparently objected to something, causing some changes. Geez, in a specifically "SM" issue, I wonder WHAT was considered as possibly "going too far"?
