The Wedding Issue [ June 2001 ]

DLa 4 Cover
DLa #004
The DLa Wedding issue features a beautiful, full-color, wrap-around cover by Sui Lan. Inside the issue, you will find an insightful Werdz Page by ThaneC, an esoteric Small Talk article by Perishable, and an eccentric Hierophant tarot card by Osseus. The Wedding issue features original artwork by Bleeding Heart, Freakish Carnival Utopia, Kalacakra, and Nimbus, as well as the premier of Sui Lan’s comic saga, The Sorrow of the Mask. The issue itself was artfully designed and formatted by the eclectic westside team, Osseus and Sui Lan. Overall, the issue represents the creativity, cohesiveness, and consistency experienced by the Dead Letter Art collective throughout their first year. As to why a group of grown men agreed to produce a magazine with a theme celebrating "weddings" and "June brides", let’s just say that we are waaay ahead of our time.
