Ladies, it’s time for some news! Good news and bad news if you will: First of all, this is the brand new issue of Destroyer. The 10th issue! It’s so fresh the paint hasn’t dried yet. In fact, it hasn’t even been applied – as I write this the printing plant’s metal plates are still being engraved. Cyan, magenta, yellow and black plates are filled with the usual Destroyer ingredients: Photos, essays, reviews, interviews – and a couple of surprises! […] So what’s the bad news? Well, as you have probably figured out from the title of this post, or the words on the cover, this is the last issue of Destroyer. – Read about the reasons & surprises here

So, this is the glorious end of Destroyer. I will spare you the heroically delivered speech about how it was not just a magazine but a statement, a glossy & wild battlecry in a fight against a society that wants to put the teenage boy into a Victorian cage of decency & prudery. I won’t rant on about the double standards of people who drool over seminude 14 year old girls on fashion mag covers but see the end of the Western world coming when you do the same thing with a boy. You know all this.

Instead I will just speak for myself. I found out about Destroyer in the very moment I was starting this blog and it became the most important inspiration for me to keep milkboys going because it helped me to understand where I want to go with the blog, what I want to tell the world about this mystical creatures boys are and which kind of people I want to reach. And after The Pirate Bay, Johan Palm & Snickers Cake it was another great product from Sweden that enriched my life on many levels ;)

Go, get your copy of the last issue of Destroyer before it’s sold out. This would also be the perfect opportunity to complete your collection of older issues, it might be your last chance to get them.

Well, (imagine Professor Farnsworth’ voice here) good news, everyone! At least 4 issues of the 9 published so far are now available as a PDF download for just € 4,99! Pro tip: You don’t wanna miss Destroyer 7! Trust me ;o) And I don’t even mean the interview with me in it ;p Apropos: The numbers in that interview are not really accurate anymore, just if you wonder. We have 17.000 daily visitors by now and the server costs $ 280 per month. But back to topic: Go, get ‘em all!

Destroyer 09 is out and on its way to the first lucky costumers. Here’s what Karl has to say about his newest baby:

I’m immensily proud to announce Destroyer 09. Why? Because of Nicola, a Swedish amateur photographer who took loads and loads of photos of beautiful boys in Naples in the 1970s. Some of them were published in the gay magazines of the time, but most of them were simply buried in Nicola’s drawers. Until now. In a 22-page double feature, we publish the best of Nicola’s photos in colour and black and white, along with an interview with Nicola himself, where he talks about the uniqueness of Naples and how it all suddenly changed to the worse in the 80s. I cannot enough emphasize the following: You do not want to miss this! D9 is the hottest issue of Destroyer since D2, which featured the 10-page interview with Cosidetto and was sold out only weeks after the release. D2 was printed in 1000 copies, D9 will be printed in 2000 copies. However, be warned that they might go very fast.

As usual, you can purchase Destroyer at Ilovemags.com!

Since it will be published around May, hopefully, it will mark the 3 years anniversary of Destroyer – the premier issue was published in May 2006.

To celebrate, I want to publish your thoughts on Destroyer in the next issue. Let me know what you think was best and worst over the years. Tell me how you think the magazine has evolved and what’s in it for you. Maybe you have some real-life encounter involving Destroyer to share, or … well, I don’t know – surprise me!

E-mail your feedback to editor@destroyermag.com with the word “feedback” in the subject line. Also let me know if you want to sign your letter with a pseudonym.

A selection of letters will be published in D9, and maybe in subsequent issues too. If your letter gets published, you will get the magazine for free, so include a shipping address if you want that.

Now – I’m looking forward to hearing from you!

Karl, Editor of Destroyer

Your prayer was heard :) Issue 6 of Destroyer (more issues will follow hopefully) is available as a digital version in PDF format  at I Love Mags. Head over there for more details. Destroyer is more an art project that you should hold in your hands rather than reading it at your PC but this should be a good alternative for people who have to deal with ephebophobia (hey, I just made up this word lol) all over the world.
