King Brown
I picked this up from Shredders Boardstore in Lonsdale. Nice little shop and this is a nice graf/skate mag. I wish more magazines came with prizes. The magazine features artist interviews and a particular nice feature are the favourite studio items of the artist featured. It’s a nice touch.

In The Post
Time to catch up on a couple of things that I forgot or missed. The Proof is a free newspaper in Chicago filled with random articles, comics, poetry and etc. The only payment is towards the shipping and subscription costs. The other interesting fact is the person behind it all, is keeping the submissions open,…
