FIRST
ISSUES
It’s the first of July, my birth
month. I’m itching to post something! I thought, it should be something
connected to me. Ah yes! The first of my birth month, so I’m posting the covers
of the First Issues of my magazine collections.
I have already previously posted some
of them in this same blog together with my collections of Philippine komiks
first issues on the particular day they were released.
Among those published in the Philippines
are the following:
MEN’S
EDGE
Supermodel Abbygale Arenas on the
first front cover of this men’s magazine. Contains articles particularly for
men, from cars, high-tech gadgets and guns to good grooming, actions and
adventures (SEE more information about it on June 1, 2012 post).
 |
| Men’s Edge (June 1994). |
THE
GOOD LIFE
On the first cover of this magazine
are “happy” masks, the photo was courtesy of the Department of Tourism.
Contains as its subtitle connotes, “brightest ideas, best buy,” trivia, facts,
stories, anecdotes, news, and everything else (SEE more information about it on
June 5, 2012 post).
 |
| The Good Life (June 1996). |
TV
STAR
Hollywood
actors Leonardo Dicaprio and Kate Winslet (a scene in the film Titanic) are on
the front cover, and Maricel Soriano (for the Green Cross alcohol print ad) on
the back cover of the premier issue of this film and entertainment magazine,
and TV guide. Contains celebrity news, profiles, film and television reviews,
and program schedules for both free TV and cable (SEE more information about it
on December 1, 2012 post).
 |
| TV Star (December 1999). |
FHM
PHILIPPINES
Hollywood actress Alicia Silverstone
graced the cover of the first issue and, on the second issue, Sunshine Cruz
became the first Filipina cover girl of this magazine. Contains sexy picture, sex
advisory columns, “true” stories and confessions of sexual encounters, and
articles on varied subjects mostly catering to male interest and
predisposition.
 |
| FHM Philippines (March and April 2000). |
GM
(Short for Gentlemen’s Magazine. I’m certainly a gentleman!)
On the front cover are the rather
interlocked bodies of Stella L. and Monica Montes, and on the flip-up back
cover are Mark Anthony Fernandez and Rica Peralejo. Contains sexy picture (some
breast exposures and nudes), spicy interviews and write-ups about starlets, and
stills of adult films.
 |
| GM (Gentlemen’s Magazine, December 2001). |
18
(I’m 99.9 percent sure it represent the age)
Sexy model and actress Tracy Torres
graced the front cover of the first issue of this men’s magazine, and Maye
Tongko at the back cover. Contains sexy pictures, lists (such as “10 Most
Fantasized Female Star”), erotica, trivia, sex jokes, sex-related articles (SEE
more information about it on September 8, 2012 post).
