NBM’s news this month comes from its EUROTICA side:

Our quarterly adult comics magazine SIZZLE which previews many of its graphic novels goes from black & white to full color throughout!

Best yet: the price stays the same at $5.95!

The magazine has been regularly featuring the works of Kevin Taylor (Girl), Christian Zanier (Banana Games), Cornnell Clarke (Peanut Butter), as well as Barbarian Chicks & Demons. But of late it’s also added the best-selling author from the Spanish Kiss comics magazine Atilio Gambedotti (Room-Mates, 4 Girlfriends) with a new series Three of a Kind. This issue will also feature a new hot artist from Kiss: Mapp and It Could Happen to You. From China, a beautiful story from a graphic novel coming in April The Jade Door making the magazine truly international. Omaha the Cat Dancer will also continue, albeit in its usual black & white.

Time to rediscover this magazine of quality adult comics which has been surprisingly stable in its circulation through these turbulent times for magazines.

By the way, we want to remind you Eurotica has its own blog now where such authors as Zanier, Clarke and Taylor regularly participate with their latest creations.
