"Batman" is a short story by Kim Shaddick, featured in Issue No. 4 of Flunk Magazine. Sneak preview time 🧐👇

"The only bit of the body they ever found was a right hand. Mr. Caden’s dog had proudly presented it to Mr. Caden on a Thursday afternoon in late October. Spring was dancing through the trees and the village was preparing for Halloween. We all assumed Mr. Caden was playing a prank as he ran down Main Street clutching the hand. In fact, it wasn’t until the next day that we discovered it was a real hand and that it belonged to Josh Rogan, village thief and vagabond. It was enough to wipe the empty smile off the plastic jack-o-lanterns squatting on our gateposts and doorsteps."

A collection of artwork by Laura Golding, featured in Issue No. 4 of Flunk Magazine! https://www.flunkmagazine.com/laura-golding

"Laura Golding’s work often takes a mixed media approach; working with watercolours, acrylic, pastels and oil sticks. She implements several mediums within one piece in order to layer her works, creating both abstract/visual marks along with rendered realistic elements. This approach creates a palimpsest effect, in which images are layered over the substrate. This technique allows an aesthetic appeal to her work, but it also references the chaotic nature of the themes she wishes to portray."

A short story from Michelle Green, featured in Issue No. 4 of Flunk Magazine. Here's a little sneak peak 👇

"On the last property before the road melts into the ranges, there is some bougainvillea. It's the old fashioned kind, a riot of magenta concealing long woody thorns. It scrambles greedily up the drive to the house before falling at the feet of a poinciana, whose flaming crown bends low in conspiratorial whispers."

A short story by Lewis Woolston, from issue No.4

"Jimmy Healy was still alive in those days and he spotted what I believe to be the last wild Brumby of the Nullarbor. It was mostly luck he spotted it and he saw it on the south side of the highway near the coast, the exact opposite of where everyone else looked for them."

A little something from Issue No.4 😉

"It wasn’t the frayed weave of Uncle Sam’s heavy canvass walls that made the boy soldier feel so sad, though kind was his pitiful gift. No! Neither was it the vacillating hands of the whimpering children, learning the cruel choice between sound or sight. No! It was but the way the teacher gently touched his cheek as he moved her to the floor."
