Free Fiction, Audio Fiction, and Comics

 More great free fiction, including a couple of complete magazines, some comics and much more. I should note that SF Signal has its latest awesome Free Fiction Roundup online, and while many listings have appeared here already, many others have not. So do yourself a favor and check it out too.  The first QD Review (since its rebirth) should be up tonight or tomorrow - as soon as I can find a few more synonyms for putrid. (Kudos if anyone guesses which recently released blu-ray it is).
