She engulfs our very being, our very light of life. She springs from our nightmares, creeping up on us as if stalking our every move. She is Dark. Among us walk the fearless and the deranged. We are Dark Illustrated, we are what you could never fathom. Once every month we escape from the shadows to show to the world what we are, and what our actions may mean. There are others like us, but none so mysterious. Now go young meat and feed on the energy that eminates from us. Go, and hope that you may never again meet this thing called Dark. Well, a little different? A little weird? Xypher Matryx takes a leave of this section of the release, a much needed rest if you ask me. 'Tis me, The 4Th Disciple bringing my total wretchedness to the release. Either you'll like it, or you'll want to hang me. Hopefully you'll all get used to my rambling and maybe, just maybe Xypher will beat Wing Commander. Or hell may freeze over, whatever comes first. Dark has been holding it's series of 'Dark Meets' of late, and though I wasn't able to attend I've heard of their success. (Note: The Green Hornet did _not_ die last month). Between the movies, alcohol and jokes a few of the members were able to work together on some peices of work. These will be featured in upcoming releases from Dark. Maybe next time some of you guys will remember to ask before borrowing a certain 'Wizard' magazine? :) As with all groups out there, it seems as if one of our older members has returned for an unknown period of time. This month Hannibal The Cannibal returns to release some of his infamous VGA work. It's always good to see alumnus working side by side with newer members. Welcome back to the Dark side!

Stile, an oldschooler has joined the ranks of Dark Illustrated to showcase his talents. As well, I'd like to apologize for leaving Samurai out of last months memberlisting and information file. This was my responsibility, and so please don't take it personal. Samurai, an excellent pic artist comes to Dark. This guy has talent, watch for it in future Dark packs. Viral Overlord, a musician also joins our ranks. This guys music is just plain cool, take a listen. Envious One  This month we discovered that one of our members has developed Penis envy. Now, we won't divulge his name (coughCARNIFEXcough) however we will state that this is not a serious case. It seems that anything over 2 cm will piss him off, and basically make him 'uncomfortable'. More on this at a later date. In the ansi scene today, with all the half naked girly pics it's kind of unawkward for our 'little' friend and his 'little' friend. :) LORD IGM Contest The due date for entries in Dark Illustrated's LORD IGM contest is fast approaching. Which group will win this? Remember to enter. Please get in touch with Xypher Matryx if interested. Internal Restructuring After months of hard work and complete dedication Xypher Matryx moves from Senior Staff to our Coding dept. The 4Th Disciple moves up to fill the space left. Nootropic also moves up to Ansi Head. Xypher will now be in charge of the Dark Illustrated Homepage which will be revamped in the months to come.
