We’ve put an end to the sale of back issues of Space Squid. Essentially we don’t have any left. So if you’re one of those special people who have a complete set of Space Squid, or a near complete set, here’s a guide to help you organize your now irreplaceable collection.
\n
\nIssue One<\/span> (aka Vol 1, Issue 1)
\nSummer 2005
\nSquid Grrrl: Cecil Clorox
\nPrint run: 400, all commercially done
\nNotes: Matte black and white all the way through. Clearly a first effort, but with many notable contributions. Priced at $2, but nearly every copy was mooched by someone.<\/p>\n

Stories:
\n"L.A. Basin vs. Central Texas" by Bruce Sterling
\n"The Trouble with Superman" by Chris Roberson
\n"Furniture, Fangs, and Fannies" by Jessica Reisman
\n"Life in the Pit of Bones" by Jay Lake
\n"Two Enigmas" by Chris Nakashima-Brown
\n"The Three Laws of Robotics" by Mike Sacks
\n"A.D.D. Pop Semiotics" by Jonathan Chang<\/p>\n

Cartoons:
\n"The Octopus with Enormous Breasts" by Christopher Hay and Matthew Bey
\n"Dissecting Chekhov’s Heart" by D Chang
\n"War and Peace of the Worlds Mashup" by Steve Wilson
\n"Octopus Baby" by Mara Hincher<\/p>\n

Illustrators:
\nDavid Johnston<\/p>\n

Issue Two<\/span> (aka Vol 1, Issue 2)
\nSummer 2006
\nSquid Grrrl: Corina Frankie
\nPrint run: 300(?), Office Depot
\nNotes: First appearance of the wildly popular funpage. Glossiest black and white cover we ever had. We’ve since been informed that there is no longer such thing as legal-sized glossy copy paper. Cover price dropped to $1. <\/p>\n

Stories:
\n"Cookies Have No Souls" by Ryan C. Thomas
\n"Tastes Like Chicken" by Michael Stone
\n"The Demon on the Floor" by Leo Siren
\n"Clone Barbecue" by Jennifer Pelland
\n"Primary Pollinator" by Nicole Kimberling

Cartoons:

Illustrators:
\nTony Millionaire
\nPaul Milligan
\nDavid Johnston
\nStanislav Grezdo<\/p>\n

Issue Three<\/span> (aka Vol 1, Issue 3)
\nFall 2006
\nSquid Grrrl: Teal Day
\nPrint run: 400(?), Office Depot
\nNotes: World Fantasy Issue. First appearance of regular contributor Derek J. Goodman. Wildly embarrassing copy-editing mistake means that many copies have Ryan Oakley’s name stickered over a name that is not his. At this point, it’s clear that we have no idea how the "Vol.\/Issue." naming convention works. Editor’s note suggests this is self-copied on Sanjay, our first free copier, but Sanjay died before we actually went to print. Official salute to Inferno\/Krusher issue. Mikal Trimm established as nemesis.<\/p>\n

Stories:
\n"Beta Test Dummy" by Ryan Oakley
\n"Headjobs…(and the expansion of the universe)" by Ashley Arnold
\n"Spray-on Nano Sex" by Paul Salamone

\n"Intelligent Design’s Future Plans for the Human Body" by Steve Wilson
\nApathy Striketeam Sigma by D Chang
\n"Exploding!! (the most exciting comic in human history)" by Matthew Bey<\/p>\n

Illustrators:

\nBig Honkey<\/p>\n

Issue Four<\/span> (aka Vol 2, Issue 1)
\nSummer 2007
\nSquid Grrrl: Nedra Frangelico
\nPrint run: 400(?)
\nNotes: The first issue that we actually printed out on our free craigslist copier, Sanjay2, saving a truly massive amount of cash. Layout by Natalie Ferguson. Funpage puzzle comparing Barack Obama with Baraka from Mortal Kombat, completely fails to garner controversy.<\/p>\n
