PERFECT FOR THE HOLODECK
We all have questions about Deanna Troi’s uniform choices. Why doesn’t she have to wear Starfleet standard issue? Why did she choose that weird asymmetrical blue dress? And why, exactly, is Enterprise-D the only ship in the fleet with a psychic counselor at the captain’s left hand?
All of these problems could be solved pretty quickly with these pants, inspired by TNG uniforms. If Counselor Troi had observed the comfort and quality of these casual Starfleet duds, we think… wait, no. We’re getting a FEELING (*holds fingers to temples*) that she would have left behind the weird wardrobe for something more comfortable like this.
Kitchen Nightmares!
On a dark, haunted night, a Russian oligarch dares a circle of international chefs to play the samurai game of 100 Candles--where each storyteller spins a terrifying tale of ghosts, demons and unspeakable beings--and prays to survive the challenge.
Inspired by the Japanese Edo period game of Hyakumonogatari Kaidankai, Hungry Ghosts reimagines the classic stories of yokai, yorei, and obake, all tainted with the common thread of food.
First course: With bad consequence, a ramen chef refuses to help a beggar, and a band of pirates get more (and less) than they were bargaining for after their encounter with a drowning woman turns ghastly.
Hungry Ghosts is cooked up by the infamous author and chef, Anthony Bourdain (Kitchen Confidential, Emmy-Award winning TV star of Parts Unknown) and acclaimed novelist Joel Rose (Kill, Kill, Faster, Faster, back again from their New York Times #1 best seller, Get Jiro!). Joining them this issue are stellar artists Alberto Ponticelli and Vanesa Del Rey, with amazing color by Jose Villarrubia, and a drop-dead cover by Paul Pope
