We would both like to thank all of our contributors for their insightful work and patience, and particularly Steven Bruhm, James R. Kincaid, Kathryn Bond Stockton, and Harry M. Benshoff for their inspiring scholarship, generous encouragement, and critical comments. We would also like to thank Phil McKnight for his editorial eye and MANDEM for granting us permission to include their artwork as the cover image.
Markus P.J. Bohlmann wishes to express his gratitude to his friends and family, monstrous and otherwise, for their love and amity.
Sean Moreland would like to thank his wife Madeleine for her unflagging support and their cherished little monster Melodie for her odd, awesome insights…. And both for putting up with his frequent and much-needed retreats to his lair to work.
