Issue 18
Here at SWINDLE, we make a conscious effort to include sociopolitical elements in each issue. With that in mind, coupled with the fact that Election Day is just around the corner, we decided to cultivate an entire issue made up of rare and unusual stories with a political spin. Our cover features eccentric presidential hopeful Vermin Supreme. He didn't make it past the primaries this year, but he still plans to attend the convention and discuss key issues such as time travel, mandatory toothbrushing laws and free ponies for all, with whoever will listen. To balance out Vermin's über liberal views, we talk to conservative political commentator Tammy Bruce. We also look at the revolutionary art of the Black Panther Party's Minister of Culture; find out what the "Subway Vigilante" is up to these days; investigate the world's deadliest gangs; explore psychological operations; and re-fashion political scandals.
