Glaive : Issue 03

Glaive is a quarterly magazine dedicated to gaming and the subcultures surrounding its various forms of expression.

A new full colour magazine dedicated to the ways of the good stuff. If you're reading this then you already know. Published by and for gaming fanatic groups worldwide, the editor (CJ) & team at Hothead Collective (NYC) writes; "this magazine is my attempt to try and bring some of these groups together into one physical place, curating a collection of subcultures that share common passions".

Covering indie video games, skirmish and tabletop roleplaying games, cult classics, Glaive celebrates games of all types. Gameable TTRPG content, interviews with creatives, advice, and opinion pieces catalog diverse voices and experiences alongside art and design steeped in the DIY sensibilities integral to our hobbies. Glaive curates an archive of current happenings in our communities, amplifying those making waves and capturing the fleeting moments shaped by today's independent tastemakers.

As the editor notes this time around; "You'll get a ringside look at some insane armored combat. You'll learn a philosophy to painting that should get you off your ass and a paint can in your hand. // Our community is growing. We had our first Hothead Hangout in NYC and you can check the photos out in this issue." Cosmic Ocean is proud to stock Glaive Magazine.
