Reviews

What happens when you take the online component of 3AM Magazine, the speculative works and wonder of Zahir, the artistic equivalent of Juxtapoz Magazine, and throw in something new, fresh, dark, gritty, hip, surreal, poetic, and themed? You get Polluto: The Anti-Pop Culture Journal...The premiere issue of this quarterly UK journal proves its worth and then some. The line-up of authors, poets, artists, and counterculture columns presents a nice template, too. First, prospective buyers should be aware that Polluto is rather genre-eclectic, and that this particular issue challenges the reader with various erudite yet bizarre premises. The running theme for Issue One is Post-Natal Depression and The Mysterons. Polluto is laid up with eighty pages of fine semi-gloss paper. American sizing brings it in at 6.5 x 9.25, and the interior and cover quality is like one of those collectible New Yorker-esque spec-journals you would find in an independent bookstore.
