our magazine

One of our activities as a fan-club is to produce an A5 format stapled magazine which has a colored cover (since our 5th issue) and approximately 30 black and white pages printed in a laser quality. From now on (from our 9th issue on), the magazine is entirely printed in color and on glazed paper. Bellow, you will find a summary of the magazines that have already been produced!

Our magazines are now also available in our shop. If you have any question, please contact the magazine’s editor, Guillaume, at the following address:
