Abstract
The Legacy of Softpaw Magazine: From Issue 1 to the Silent Future
The original run consisted of four issues released between 2006 and 2009. Each issue retailed for approximately $19.95, a premium price for the time, and typically featured 60–80 glossy pages.
The first issue of Softpaw Magazine had been printed on a whim—twenty-seven pages of stapled zines featuring a stray cat’s whisker sketches and a recipe for dandelion tea. No one bought it except the editor’s mother.
Issues were typically 60–80 full-color pages with a retail price of around $19.95. Featured Content
