"Le Gun No. 5" has taken the great George Melly (trout-tickling-dada-loving jazz pirate, and past contributor to "Le Gun") as muse for this issue. Works include the intense outsider art of Nick Blinko, artist, writer and frontman of anarcho punk/Deathrock band Rudimentary Peni.
Emma Rendel, the spearhead of Swedish surrealism, provides a special insert: Aquiring Success in Your Professional Career Through the Science of Personal Achievement, James Unsworth presents his Ninja Turtle Sex Museum, camp taxidermy comes from Hernan Bas, Charles Averys imaginary Island makes an appearance, the macabre tableaux of Laurie Lipton appear for the first time in "Le Gun", while words from the Hunter S. Thompson of Hartlepool, Michael Smith help complete the assemblage...
