STARBURST goes under the sea with an issue that comes from the depths. As well as looking forward to AQUAMAN, the latest entry to DCEU, we count down our favourite watery genre icons including THE CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON and those paragons of false advertising, the SEA-MONKEYS!

Elsewhere, we celebrate the 30th anniversary of anime classic AKIRA and uncover the troubled fortunes of distribution company MANGA UK.

Another birthday is also commemorated, as SOOTY reaches the ripe old age of 70.

If that’s not enough, we talk to JOHN MCPHAIL, director of the brilliant horror-comedy-musical ANNA AND THE APOCALYPSE and cult legend ADRIENNE BARBEAU tells us all about her career, working with JOHN CARPENTER, and voicing Catwoman in BATMAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES.

In our regular features, we take a look at Horror Channel’s season of classic HAMMER films and Independents Day focuses on JENNIFER PHILLIPS, director of BLOOD CHILD.

Plus all your favourite COLUMNS, NEWS, REVIEWS and much MORE from the worlds of SCI-FI, HORROR and FANTASY!
