DLEGs tell us about Dynamite Magazine

A lot of these magazines were put out by pedos. I blame them for the downfall of a lot of child actors more than film or TV producers.

Scholastic also put up part of the money for [italic]Charles In Charge[/italic], which makes it all the more perplexing how a company devoted to getting kids to read could also produce one of the stupidest TV shows ever created.

It was no Bananas magazine

How ironic that Travolta's ass had fewer growths on it.

How does Baio look 12 and 55 at the same time at the OP?

I loved Dynamite and its older relative, Bananas. Many good memories.

The same way as Danny Pintauro: Italian genes and getting plowed with drugs by rapists at an early age.

I'm sure Farrah Fawcett got around plenty on her own, but Ryan O'Neal must have given her ten trillion STDs.

She didn't get them from me.

This magazine was pivotal for pop culture. They alone kept Shields and Yarnell going!

Yeah, but did they ever cover Mummenschanz?

One of mt L.A. friends was an editor for Bop and Big Bopper magazine.

She was also a producer for 2 seasons of The Real World and is often the source of gossip I share here.

My favorite outing with her was "interviewing" Marky Mark after a show at Great Adventure. What an asshole.

We also spent a day with Mario Lopez. ZZZZZZZ

I loved Tiger Beat thogh and had pages of Bobby Sherman taped up in my bedroom.

Somehow my parents never saw it coming.

This issue grab this gayling's attention

I'm 67, which means I was 22 in 1974, so I've never heard of this magazine. I guess this question is aimed at younger eldergays.

^^^yes, I’m 54 and I had a subscription in the late 1970’s, in Junior HS.

R12, I used to read Bop and Big Bopper when I was a kid in the late 80s, were all those interviews fake/embellished?

Bananas was better because it was funnier, but naturally I got both magazines back in the day. Sam Viviano was the remarkably talented cover and interior artist for both magazines in the '80s, and he went on to helm Mad magazine, which is what Bananas was of course knocking off.

Kinda r16.

Bopper and Big Bopper were the wicked stepchildren of Tigerbeat. Same publishers/owners.

The "interviews" actually happened but the editors fleshed them out. A lot.

My friend loved that job. It was so beyond stupid but harmless, campy fun.

Fuck YOU!

Well, ya know what, r12? [italic]My[/italic] friend in L.A. interviewed MILLI VANILLI for one of those teen mags. No Pulitzer yet.

Your editor friend probably poisoned her Hostess Sno Balls in the break room, derailing a once promising career.

In the summer of 1990, I was ten and inherited a ton of old Dynamite magazines from a neighbor, who had recently graduated from high school and was heading off to college. He was going to throw them all away, but my mom, who had befriended his mother and was over visiting with her at the time, figured I would want them because I loved to read. I remember I fell in love with this cover and would stare at it lovingly and even sleep with it. LOL! I also recall one issue that featured Scott Baio going out on a 'date' with a fan and an article about ghosts and haunted houses that scared the shit out of me!
