...naughty parts, DiPasquale was quick to point out that his publication would be different than H-Bomb’s—basically all of the nudity without that stupid artsy shit. The 41-page online-only pilot issue featured articles on the hottest new summer kicks, The Dark Knight, and college football, in addition to a veritable bevy of garish fonts and clip art.
