A vibrant, illustration-heavy issue that leans into colour, character, and handcrafted aesthetics, this one rolls through the standard Juxtapoz structure — intro, style sheet, collectors, profiles, Showstoppers, reviews, insider notes, Pop Life, and a final perspective. It’s firmly planted in that early-2010 sweet spot when the magazine was championing artists who blended design, narrative, and surreal whimsy.
Keith Haring sets the historic backbone, leading into Brendan Monroe’s soft, biomorphic dreamscapes and Corey Helford Gallery’s polished pop-surrealist roster. Peter Funch adds photographic storytelling with conceptual flair, while Meredith Dittmar brings intricate sculpted psychedelia. Jay Howell delivers loose, punk-infused character art, Burlesque of North America represents the screen-printing powerhouse era, and Dave Cooper caps it off with lush, grotesque, painterly intensity. A colourful, eclectic, highly collectible issue — clean, playful, and very RB-friendly.
