It began with the Japanese Monster Sex Show.
This was what a rather harmless looking baby-faced man with a perennial scowl, a slight paunch and a predilection to wearing rock music t-shirts two sizes too large for his baby damulag body recommended, nay, demanded that I use as the title of the monthly music column that he would write for me in my previous stint as an Editor-in-chief of a now defunct men’s magazine (Although I still fail to see what the title of his column had to do with music unless the squeals of three hundred foot tall monsters in the throes of love sounded like heavy metal).

Hello all. This is Luis Katigbak, Editor-at-Large (no fat jokes please). Just wanted to say that I am looking forward to the unleashing of the all-new UNO this June — after many sleepless nights, heated discussions, hunger pangs, and 3 AM epiphanies, it’s finally coming out! I can’t wait to see how people take it.
I’ve been working on magazines for over a decade now, and this is definitely one of the best teams I’ve ever worked with. Erwin “The Erwinator” Romulo, Juan “The Tattooed Man” Caguicla, Denise “Dahlin” Mallabo, Ramon “Supercontext” De Veyra, Mihk “Made in Hong Kong” Vergara, Jayvee “Mnemonic” Fernandez, “Gangsta” France Pinzon, the Notorious Shawn Yao, and of course, RJ “Tru” Ledesma, among many others, staffers and freelancers alike. We overhauled all the sections, got our favorite people to contribute, and made lots of grand plans. The June issue will feature pop culture goodness galore, a forgotten basketball hero, forward-looking fashion, an adventure trip, a mad filmmaker or two or three, and of course, beautiful women. We hope you like the end result.
