Beautiful Stories for Ugly Children is a comic book series written by Dave Louapre and illustrated by Dan Sweetman, published by DC Comics through their Piranha Press imprint from June 1989 until September 1992. The series saw a total of 30 issues. A trade paperback, titled A Cotton Candy Autopsy, reprinted issues #1 and #13, and concluded the story told in those issues with a previously unpublished third part.[1]
The promotional material said that the title would be restarting in a 128-page quarterly anthology format with the first issue being titled, What If This Were Heaven, Wouldn't That Be Hell?. Despite the plan to continue publishing in this format, this would actually be the final Beautiful Stories for Ugly Children story to be released.
An image from A Cotton Candy Autopsy was used as the cover for Mr. Bungle's debut album.
