Welcome to the Matrix
Why the Matrix?
I used to collect comic books, and as anyone involved in that hobby can tell you, The Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide is an indispensable tool for building your collection. While the actual prices listed are debatable, the Guide also tells you who published the comic books, the dates of publication, and how many issues were published. There was a half-hearted attempt at such a guide for Men's Magazines, back in the 90's, but that one publication got a lot wrong and mysteriously ended at the letter V, as if the publisher had a set number of pages and just stopped when he reached it.
This site will be an attempt to do for men's magazines what the great Comics.Org does for comic books. You will see a list of issues, including the publication date, the publisher's name, and if I can find a little history about the magazine or the creators, I'll include that too.
To be honest, I don't expect this project to ever be completed. There is just so much info and so many magazines published, that I don't forsee ever getting all of the data in here. But we can sure make a dent in it!
Hopefully, we'll find enough people interested in this project to keep it active and constantly updated. If not, well, I'll do what I can, but I won't be spending every waking moment working on this project.
So let's get started!
