Arise Magazine

[Luxx]

Interesting new publication out of Nigeria. I searched for a thread on it before but I couldn't find one. Naomi, Liya and Alek look major and the contents are pretty interesting as well.

Agreed, it looks really stiff to me.

I posted about this from WWD in the Business of Magazines thread earlier this week. I would love to see the table of contents.

Thank you for scanning Luxx

I love the idea of this magazine. But you have Liya, Naomi, and Alek and this is the best you can do??

Oh well its nice still though, I hope the magazine does well

 

[MulletProof]

so strange and exciting to see an African magazine being covered here, Urban should be proud!.

 

[sethii]

Liya looks bored, Alek looks scared and Naomi looks like a killer

Naomi isn't even african why is she there?

 

[Franzy]

Beautiful cover!

 

[giorrie]

they at least could've given Liya some sequence as well. this is a bad cover it doesn't even pop. And you have 3 stars?!

 

[cottonmouth13]

great casting of models but i'm not feeling the cover.

 

[Northern Star]

^^My words......it's just not good. What a disappointment when you've got 3 girls like that gracing you're first cover you use them well.

My thoughts exactly. They look good but the cover is extremely boring Thanks Luxx

 

[BerlinRocks]

is it a magazine produced in Nigeria ? Or is it a nigerian magazine whose offices are somewhere else ?

i don't get why they "lighted" Alex's skin ...

 

[VogueParisLover]

^ I think you mean Alec.

I don't think they lightened her skin. It might just be the scan

And here are the contents for the lovely MMA:
