TODAY'S FEATURE IS (GUEST) BLOG #3963 - I wanted to mention this magazine that was published by Atlas / Seaboard Publications back in February of 1975. It was a confession text magazine with photos in black & white format. It was edited by Karen Flashner. So besides publishing comic books, which I've blogged about several times in the past, (see this link), Martin Goodman's new company also was looking into publishing magazines, similar to his setup back when he owned Magazine Management that published mags & Marvel Comics! However, before you start looking for one of these... It is ten times more rare than the 'Gothic Romances' magazine by Atlas / Seaboard. I've looked! There appears to be only three known copies of this magazine! Please note: Other than the Captain America t-shirt the model is wearing on the front cover.. There isn't any cother comic book connection! So for those of you that thought you had a complete Atlas / Seaboard collection... You are probably one issue shy of that goal now! ~ Michael
