Many other magazines, including Inside Karate, Karate Illustrated and Karate/Kung-Fu Illustrated, have gone the way of the dodo bird. Both the internet and cable/satellite television have done a number to the print industry, but specialty mags/newspapers still find their niches.

They could do that, but you didn't disclaim that Black Belt mag is just so so. They ususally have one good article, lots of ads, and lots of the same stuff from month to month. I personally pick it up once in a while, but wouldn't subscribe as most of the stuff is the same month after month.

There is a classic fighting arts, or classic martial arts magazine that I've seen that seems pretty good. It's fairly expensive and fairly short page wise, but it seems ok. I've looked at it at Borders, but haven't purchased a copy as I always seem to be short of cash when I find a good copy.

I meant google the question at hand. I guess that didn't come across in my poorly worded post - my bad.

I'd recommend going to any bookstore, grocery store or such and there should be numerous martial arts magazine, including Black Belt and Karate Illistrated that you can purchase.

There's a dynamic new bi-monthly e-zine called Shotomag https://www.shotomag.com.
