First Look - February 2010
1/21/2010
Omar Salazar and Neckface stopped by the plant to get a first look at the February 2010 issue, and to peep the Prevent This Tragedy video.
Trapasso got the cover with a huge 180. You can see the footage in his video part on the Prevent This Tragedy DVD that comes free with the mag.
We've got 32 pages of behind-the-scenes action from the making of our Tragedy DVD. Not to be missed...
Just one of the many amazing ads in this issue, Chris Cole kicks his year off with a booming Spitfire ad.
Last but definitely not least, both Nick Trapasso and Emmanuel Guzman rock full-length interviews.
