The Dreamery

    (Eclipse, 1986-1989)
™ and ©1986 LX Ltd.

Started in 1986, this anthology series featured several regular stories, including “Stinz” by Donna Barr, Lela Dowling’s “Alice (in Wonderland),” and “Prince Ivan” by Diane Duane and Sherlock. There are also guest stories, including Cathy Hill’s “Mad Raccoons.”

In later years, Donna Barr would gain recognition for her solo effort, The Desert Peach. Lela Dowling is a versatile artist going from the whimsy of Alice, to the more serious drawing on Dragonflight.
