One blog post I found said the previous Postscripts was available at Allbooks on Rideau St. and Invisible Cinema on Lisgar, or by ordering from postscripts2darkness at gmail dot com.

Is Misfit Quarterly still in business?

I need to hire you to be my manager.

I'm not sure that Misfit survived the first decade of the century, which is a shame. It was a nice looking, well-curated collection.
