F(r)iction #26: Fame
$25.00
The Fame (Infamy) issue explores the fabulous, fascinating, and sometimes Faustian facets of rising in reputation and renown. Join us to question the costs of stardom, relish the heights of heroism, and contemplate the lengths we'll go to become remarkable in eyes of the public, the camera, and ourselves.
In these pages, host of The Scarlet Letter Reports and author of Free: My Search for Meaning, Amanda Knox, brings the story of an analytical ape who gains fame thanks to a saffron-suited "savior," Andrea McDonnell (Reading Celebrity Gossip Magazines) surveys historical celebrities with staying power, Ken Liu (All That We See or Seem) discusses Writing, AI, and Fame in an exclusive interview, and Noah Charney and Svetlana Slapšak dig into the world's most famous and toothsome monster... the Vampire.
Fame also features the story of two dancers competing for center stage, a pair of friends wishing to transcend their humble lives, a reality TV show for anime magical girls, and a fitness club that promises unsurpassed celebrity for a price. Plus we present a new student comic memoir from Frames Comic Program alum, Madden Oliver, a community feature with Soul in Space, and more!
The marquee is lit, the search lights are aglow, and we're ready for our closeup...
