Lampoon 26: The Muscles Issue

Lampoon is a magazine with an editorial identity based on respect for all human diversity. We support anyone who wants to bring a positive message of civic and social engagement. To construct our narrative, we investigate contemporary aesthetics. We produce editorial photography by bringing creativity and fashion in progress, challenging the state of the art.

The title Lampoon Issue 26 is not about generic and varied strength – the word is muscles. Muscles that can hold you in a hug and belong to respectable people. They cultivate restlessness and subtle fervor: they profess vanity, have fun, and entertain others. They don’t care what other people think; those who want to feel part of a group, a pack – this is the only difference between the people we want to talk about and the lions. People who know how to use their muscles when with you use their strength to be with you.
