The Doom Master Wadazine 1st Anniversary - Issue #1 ReMastered!

 

The Doom Re–Master Wadazine!

#1

 

The Doom what now? That’s right, the Doom Re-Master Wadazine! The very first issue of your all mighty, demon-loving, satanic-influencer, hell-worshiper and tech-base maniac Doom magazine now in all HD glory! Or in this case, not MS Word glory.

 

We’ve reached one full year of the Wadazine. Our very first timeline milestone and one that we proudly celebrate in full honor. The Wadazine started as a one-man-journey into the vast world of Doom, but it has now become something much bigger, something else. It’s a testament to a community that’s filled with artists, content creators, intellectuals, mappers, wise-guys, speedrunners, masochist, casual-lovers, retro enthusiast, vanilla addict, ZDoom gurus, code wizards, obsessive writers, prolific jacks-of-all-trades and above all else, Doom lovers.

 

The Doom Master Wadazine is my idea of the perfect Doom companion. Like those old TV guides there used to exist, or books like the famous 1001 Movies To Watch Before You Die. The idea was to create something that worked as an excuse to explore more of the Doom world, and as a way to create something that could help you partake in your own journey across these oceans of content. I’ve always imagined this with a 90s set of mind; back then when internet wasn’t as open and easy to access as today, and back then when guides and articles only existed in physical issues. You had three things to enjoy the most out of a game: 1. The game, duh, 2. A good-enough radioactive PC and 3. A lovely magazine-guide. You 80s and 90s boys know what I’m talking about. A magazine companion felt like a bible of knowledge and secrets to be discovered. News from all around the PC gaming world, articles dedicated to particular subjects, entire interviews with your favorite developers, walls of reviews to help you choose your next adventure, fantastical ads promoting the best upcoming thing to blew the world. It was unreal. It was a time of magic and pure discovery.

 

I wanted to recreate that era, that feeling, aesthethic and experience with the Doom Master Wadazine, and I believe, that 1 year later and #12 issues later, various projects, new events and more, we've done it!

 

So, here's a big cheer for the Wadazine and many more years to come, thank you all, dear doomers!
