NEWS JPOP

Good intentions and all that ...

I still haven't made a lot of headway on the magazine backlog but I'm not giving up. But NEWS has had such a busy year and it's not over yet!
 
So sharing in this post a group of mags from the release of the EPCOTIA album. These magazines are all grouped together because they are smaller in size that your average A4 tv magazine.

Still catching up.

And maybe I've been dragging my feet because with these issues we reach the end of an era.
 
These are the final issues of Duet, Potato and WinkUp that feature NEWS as a regular group. In that particular Japanese euphemism they have 'graduated' from these magazines as a group. As a mark of that Duet has a final manga, Potato gave them a cover and poster, and WinkUp had a poster.
 
So unless something truly extraordinary happens these will be my last scans of these magazines.

I'm still way behind on gettin caught up with scans, but I am slowly getting there.
   
This batch of magazines is from earlier this year and features - Monthly TV Guide, QLAP, Songs, TV Guide Alpha, TV Guide Person and a few others.
   
There are a number of two page groups spreads as well as poster from QLAP as well the piano score for BLACK FIRE.

Apologies for how far behind I am on magazines ... I will get caught up eventually, and unfortunately one of the reasons for that is that NEWS have now officially 'graduated' from the main 5 magazines - Duet, Potato, WinkUp, Myojo and Popolo.
 
However, I still have a couple of months for each of those mags to catch up on, and here are the March issues of Myojo, Popolo and BITEKI.

Sharing a collection of recent mags with some feature NEWS spreads.
   
They even managed a couple of cover features, so lets hope this is a promising start to a major year of celebrations and attention for their 15th anniversary.
   
Magazines in this post are The Television COLORS White, TV GUIDE ALPHA J and TV GUIDE Person.

Sharing the November issues of Myojo and Popolo.
   
It definitely looked as if original ideas were a bit hard to come by at this stage of the year.
