This disturbingly sexy teenage boy lives by the Black Sea. You’ll see more of him very soon …

You might remember him from Destroyer 04.

Several of the core Destroyer readers have demanded I offer transparent plastic sleeves to protect their little treasures, especially in the US, where the DIN A5 format is not a standard.

Well, here they are! Made to fit and open on one short end. They are available in the Destroyer shop separately or in a package of 10.

This is one of the young sportsmen from Omsk that featured in Destroyer 04. Don’t comment - just sit back in awe.

As of today Destroyer is available at ILoveMags.com!

You can pay with credit card (Visa or Master Card) and the magazines ship immediately upon payment.

I Love Mags will from now on be the only way to order Destroyer.

I wish you happy shopping and would also like to thank everyone who used to pay through bank transfer or by sending cash to the post box - and those of you who paid through one of the many payment solutions used since the start in 2006. Those days are now just a nostalgic memory!

While waiting for Destroyer 07, here’s an interview with me that the Finnish art magazine Kasino A4 published in April 2007 (issue 4/5). Click to enlarge.

Today we’ve upgraded the Destroyer blog to Wordpress 2.5.1. I think everything went smoothly. Let me also apologize for the lack of action here recently.

Found this in a hairdresser’s window.

Me and my friend Oscar Swartz took the car from Prague to deliver several hundred copies of Destroyer 06 to Destroyer’s German distribution central. (Most copies were shipped from Prague yesterday, but since many readers live in Germany, Destroyer is also shipped from there.)

Despite both Germany and the Czech Republic are part of the Schengen Agreement, we were waived to the side by a police car at the border crossing. It was a routine check. The officer asked us if we had any drugs or weapons in the vehicle, and we said we didn’t. Then he searched the car thoroughly with a flashlight. His face didn’t reveal what he thought when he found seven boxes filled with Destroyer Magazine in the trunk.

A male and a female officer joined him. They took a copy of Destroyer with them, along with our passports, to the police car. Oscar and I waited in our car. I was counting the minutes, since I thought every extra minute made the situation more embarrassing for the cops.

After about 20 minutes one of them came back with our passports and the copy of Destroyer that they had borrowed. ”Alles klar!” he said and let us go. All clear!

I retell this little story since I know some readers are afraid that Destroyer walks the line of the law. Now you know it doesn’t.
