Like a box of cyanide-filled chocolates, this very special Valentine's Day issue features bitter surprises that go down with deceptive smoothness. When a bored sadomasochistic couple tries to re-spark their relationship, they plummet from the sordid to the extreme in "Red Romance" (written by Joe R. Lansdale with art by Bruce Timm); a lonely man purchasing "Boil-in-the-bag-Girlfriend" finds life is about to get very complicated in "Pre-Packed" (written by Ian Carney with art by Dave Taylor); and a wife-beating ex-con undergoing a radical new organ replacement treatment learns there's no such thing as true repentance in "Emergent" (written by John Rozum with art by Cliff Wu Chiang).
