Bradley Sands (Editor-in-Chief) is the author of the novel, It Came from Below the Belt(Afterbirth Books) . After attempting
to steal all the spare change in a shopping mall's fountain by hot-wiring
the sports car being displayed in the mall lobby and crashing it into the
water, Bradley tested the claim that putting a thumbtack in a escalator's
handrail turns it into stairs and embarrassed the pursuing security guards to such an extent that they were neither able to continue shouting
menacingly nor have legs that functioned properly. Little did Bradley know,
the escalator was an experimental model designed to tie a rider's shoelaces
seconds before they were caught in the track and experienced a messy horror
movie death. And that the fiendish escalator manufacturing horde had rushed
the units in without first properly testing them. And that the thrust of the
tack would cause a series of mysterious circumstances that most likely had
something to do with radiation, endowing Bradley with the power to have
people do the opposite of everything that he says. His new era of greatness
began with telling mall security not to hurt him. He is now recuperating in Boulder, Colorado.

Garrett Cook (Assistant Editor) is the Winner of the first annual Ultimate Bizarro Showdown and ignominious loser of the second. He works hard for the money but not too hard, still you‘d better treat him right. He is a writer of bizarro, horror, and neo-pulp fiction. It’s a steady job but he wants to be a paperback writer. Which is what he is and it is not a steady job. He is the author of Murderland part 1:h8, Murderland 2: Life During Wartime, and Archelon Ranch. He’s a ghost, he’s a god, he’s a man, he’s a guru. His book, Jimmy Plush, Teddy Bear Detective, is coming soon from Eraserhead Press. He is all out of limited edition preorders of this book. You snoozed and lost, motherfuckers. Also, he is a critic for Withersin and edits magazines or some shit.

When he is Karl Fischer, he studies creative writing at the University of Colorado and sells exotic fish for a living. Under said name, he has been published in Space Squid, Everyday Weirdness, Bastards and Whores (who have yet to pay him), and Short, Fast, and Deadly. He is often seen talking with interesting people about interesting stuff.
