When necromancers' profane work is done in the dead of night, away from prying eyes, a reliable way to maintain the guise of a productive member of society each day is critical. If a Crown Skeleton's wailing crow can't wake you up, the explosive alchemist's fire stored in its ribcage certainly will.

Necromancy and parenting rarely mix, so the Hug Skeleton takes a little from each job and does them... "adequately." Assembled from loose bones, this macabre teddy bear is a bodyguard and companion for necromancers' kids, until they're old enough to like cooler skeletons. A parent can dream, right?

It all started on this day. Thank you for a wonderful twenty years.
Text in the center reads: 20 Years Oct. 2006 - Oct. 2026, clarkesworldmagazine.com

(right) Cover art for issue 241 by Marcel Deneuve is "Labyrinths of Azarax" and features a blue and white mechanical eye in a circular opening looking at a small, white, glowing humanoid figure standing on a large pipe in the tunnel. Many pipes line the walls, all heading out to the main room. Pipes are yellow and gray. Room beyond is blue.

(left) Cover art for issue 1 by Tomasz Pietrzyk is "The Town of the Towers" and features a surreal town of yellowy white distorted towers with reddish orange roofs that overhang the towers and rise to a point. Mishapen dark windows and doors are scattered about on the buildings. Orange sky gives the entire piece a warm tone.
