Poetry. Translated from the Swedish by Johannes Göransson. Berg's hallucinatory, post-cataclysmic epic takes place in an unremitting future-past. The bodies mutate and hybridize. They are erotic and artificial, art and adrenaline. Available for the first time in English as a complete collection, the poems of this contemporary Swedish classic contaminate as they become contaminated—drawing on and altering source texts that range from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre to string theory. Calling on fables, science, the pastoral, and the body, DARK MATTER aggravates their perception while exhausting poetry down to its nerve: "a faint spasm of cheers before this, the nervous system's last chance to communicate with the dying I." The result: a monstrous zone of linguistic and bodily interpenetration, cell death, and radiant permutations.

Things could not look much darker for him. But Steve Ditko's glorious art and the quirky charm of an underdog company always made these stories a treat. Livro definitivo para o entendimento de sua obra.. I will be ordering them as each occasion/holiday presents themselves. The book crawled along in places, but intermittent moments of foreboding kept my optimism intact as I continued my quest to reach what I felt would be the shocking conclusion. While I have numerous volumes concerning this subject in my library, this amazing set stands head and shoulders above all the others. Now more than ever, short stories can provide the medium we all need to touch and enrich our hearts. Captain Atom #78 to #82 have slightly better Marvel influenced long stories but the art suffers a little from inking by Rocke Mastroserio (only Ditko could ink Ditko well).The Marvel storytelling influence on the 1965 to 1966 stories is humerous because these guys were terrible at attempting Stan's flip, hip dialo
