IN BRIEF: Biopsy 2; The Josh - Journal of Sexual Homos

12/15/08

Chris Morgan's and Drew Needham's little newsprint zine Biopsy claims it is America's last magazine, and after reading the latest issue of Rolling Stone, I'm inclined to believe them. I haven't read the latest issue yet (it's teetering on my stack) but I'm intrigued by the list of articles defending questionable activities. In any event, if you email Mr. Morgan, he'll send you a copy for free, so what do you have to lose?

The Josh is the latest sexy homo digest, a genre I'm frankly growing tired of since most are no where as good as the magazine that inspires them, Butt. The Josh however shows promise because of well chosen illustrators (most notably Logan MacDonald) rather than the typical dull attempts at naked homo photography (although there is that here too). I'll be following them.

In Brief: What, as they say, is up?

07/29/10

We are often quiet ... but now we have a reason! So, yeah. Our zine, Put A Egg On It, just came out and we're in the throes of promotion and post office trips. One cool thing: the zine was in this weeks New York Magazine Approval Matrix! If you're in New York, you can pick up a copy at St. Mark's Bookstore, Spoonbill & Sugartown, Marlowe & Sons, Cinders Gallery and Desert Island. Or you can get your copy here.

On top of that, we're moving into a new studio today and tomorrow! What should we name it?

In Brief: This, That and Those

11/29/10

Ms. Keough and I are trying to juggle our jobs, our mag and Print Fetish - sorry dudes, sometimes the blog loses out! I really feel guilty though, because we've seen some great stuff lately, especially the goodies we picked up at The NY Art Book fair a few weeks ago. Print is not only alive - it's being made by some sexy ass people. Serious cruising was done at the art book fair.

Last week German business mag Werben & Verkaufen interviewed me about the future of Print. Andrew of Magtastic was also interviewed. Anyone see it?
