Anonymous said...: And thus, the 2/14 teaser is revealed. This is great news. Had a feeling something like this was in the works given your relationship with Robert Bryan. Might even pay full price!; 22 March, 2012 22:24
Oyster Guy said...: Tres tres cool, tres tres chic. Well done old boy. I hope you post a few more details how and why this all came about. Most importantly, will it enhance welcome attentions from ze ladies?; 23 March, 2012 00:55

Makaga said...: @ Anon, good at your for remembering the 2/14 mention of M magazine.

Congrats to you, Tintin! Will there be a book launch party?

(Hint: Yes!); 23 March, 2012 09:57
tintin said...: Yes, 2/14 was the date I thought I could announce. But it was not to be. That bothers me more than anyone will ever know -- but I suppose better late than never.; 23 March, 2012 16:25
Julia said...: Good for you - I will start preparing to relive the '80s. Wish it could be kitted with a mixed-tape.; 23 March, 2012 17:37
TRVS said...: Did your Dad know? I hope so. Sending my warmest congratulations to you...funny, I sort of saw something like this happening for you. Well done! If you have a book launch party I'll take the train into town.

ethan fanshel said...: I was a subscriber from the very beginning to the very end. I wish someone would revive it.; 25 March, 2012 22:52
ignorancearbitrage said...: Congratulations! Well deserved.

I second the book party suggestion. All in favor?; 26 March, 2012 13:17
Yale Hollander said...: Color me thrilled! I was an M subscriber back in the day and was terribly disappointed when its run came to an end; especially since M's demise fell hard on the heels of Lee Eisenberg's departure from Esquire (U.S.).

I will most certainly be purchasing this book and eagerly await its arrival. Congratulations, and well done!; 27 March, 2012 09:29
Yale Hollander said...: Correction to above comment: Eisenberg left Esky in November '90, so his departure fell hard on the heels of M's demise. In any event, the early 90's were dark days for civilized gents' periodicals. It will be great to reach back to better times with the release of this book.; 27 March, 2012 09:32
JMGIII said...: The highly estimable Yale H. forwarded me this link, as he was sure it would -- as it, in fact, did -- afford me immense pleasure.

"M" is the only magazine for which I have EVERY issue and I guard it like a favorite child.

Colossal kudos, cannot wait to get my hands on a copy.; 17 May, 2012 16:22
DC Bored said...: I am late to the game, but thank you for making this happen. My dad got me reading this in my in high school. I was gutted when they stop publishing. I had every issue until the basement flooded or so my mom said (think she just threw them out). Cannot wait to buy this. Thank you; 17 July, 2012 12:05
