They’ve gone against the odds,\u00a0but Monster Children<\/a><\/strong><\/em>, the fashion\/culture mag for\u00a0action kids, just published their 50th issue<\/strong><\/a>. Yes, they’re still in business.<\/p>\n . . . a milestone for the independent magazine established in Australia in 2003. The specially curated Issue 50 is based around the notion of \u2018Heroes\u2019 and features exclusive interviews with 50 individuals that Monster Children<\/em> love and admire. . .\u00a0Also interviewed for the issue are skate industry icon\u00a0Keith Hufnagal<\/i>, fashion photographer\u00a0Mario Sorrenti<\/i>, artist\u00a0Barry McGee<\/i>, film makersGlendyn Ivin\u00a0<\/i>and\u00a0Nabil Elderkin<\/i>, legendary musicians\u00a0Warren Ellis\u00a0<\/i>and\u00a0Ian MacKaye<\/i>, world champion longboarder\u00a0Kelia Moniz\u00a0<\/i>and Papua New Guinean born soul singer\u00a0Ngaiire<\/i>. Although the issue features many big names, the issue also highlights a new generation of surfers, skateboarders, artists and creatives.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Our favorite interview was with Chris Noble<\/strong>, the co-founder of Level Mag<\/a><\/strong><\/em> on how they finally realized they were losing money with each issue and just quit. It’s unlikely that\u00a0Monster Children<\/em>\u00a0will\u00a0follow a similar path because we all know how good they are\u00a0about keeping smiles on their advertisers’ faces.<\/p>\n
