Our end-of-year issue is out of the oven like a delicious roast monkey at a secret forbidden restaurant. In this issue—our 71st—you will discover interviews, features and stories with folks like skate filmmaker Naquan Rollings, Anton Newcombe of The Brian Jonestown Massacre, LCD Soundsystem’s Nancy Whang, and Indigenous model Cindy Rostron. You will also uncover the wonderful world of running with Satisfy’s Brice Partouche, Dustin Miller will dust off some negatives, and Ben Colen will share some of his amazing illustrations. Then, somewhere in the middle of the mag, we’ll announce the winners of the annual Monster Children Photo Competition, and then have a chat with pro-skater-turned-Hasselblad-aficionado Rune Glifberg. Music industry legend Steve Pav will explain in words and pictures what the 90s were, and then—look out—it’s time for 20-pages of photos in Printed Matter (aka, The Year in Photos), then photographer Andrew Peters takes us skating in Paris with Evan Mock and co., and then tattoo artist Jesse Ocean shows us around his studio, and then a bunch of other stuff, and then, and then…  Who knows? You’ll have to cough up for a copy.

The Monster Children 2022 Annual. It’s the best thing we ever did ever. Again.
