Magazine Graveyard: Vox

I fail to remember exactly what happened to this magazine — I think it was swallowed up by one of it’s rivals — The NME if memory serves correctly. I know with these articles I should sit there on wiki and painstakingly research stuff but they are, after all, supposed to be opinion pieces and [...]

Magazine Graveyard: The Face

It led the way in a lot of respects — taught people what a culture magazine could be and it taught with style. At one point The Face could have been considered a setter of trends, a creator of them, but there was some kind of imperceptible shift and suddenly it seemed to be running [...]

Magazine Graveyard: Q

OK, so it’s not dead yet, but God, considering what it’s become it should be. I used to love this magazine then we had a run where they had Cliff Richard, Ronan Keating and the Spice Girls on the front cover and I would cringe with embarassment walking out of the shop with the bloody [...]

Magazine Graveyard: Level Magazine

The notice on the website of this now defunct magazine has to be one of the saddest things ever. Just before it died, in common with a couple of the other magazines I intend to feature under this umbrella there was a format change and goddamned if I know why it died shortly after. It’s [...]

Magazine Graveyard: Sleaze Nation

God, how I miss this magazine. I had to hunt for it — weirdly Suffolk was strangely backwards when it came to stocking anything thought of as vaguely dodgy. How do I know that they thought of it this way? Because, as with almost every publication I bought, they would start giggling when they talked [...]

Ranthead: Proofread

I know that as soon as I sit down to write this rant, no matter how many times I look at it there will be a typo that is going to make me look like an arsehole. That aside though, I would just like to say, that if you are putting out your first issue [...]

Comicsphere: Freak Angels 4 Goes Live

The internet jesus is back in his kingdom and all is well with the world. The story is shaping up nicely — thus far the episodes have been the equivalent to one of those tracking shots that swoops in and out of the main character’s lives introducing us to them and giving us a feeling [...]
