Which mag(s) would you bring back from the dead, if you could?
minOnline, the website of the weekly magazine newsletter min, has a little poll out where people can select what late consumer magazine titles they would like to bring back from the dead. (They put it a little more gently: "Which closed magazine has left the biggest hole for you on the newsstand?")
Which departed Canadian magazine would you like to have back, were you to have the power to make it happen?

Saturday Night!
Domino Magazine. It was so good and so different from the other shelter magazines.

Saturday Night and Masthead. Since Unlimited was my magazine, I will leave it off my list - but we still get weekly queries for it.
Domino!!! It was one of the most beautiful, clever, well put together home magazines. Sadly missed.
Spy, Spy, Spy. Nothing like it. Made me laugh out loud.

1. Details, in the early 1990s.
2. Smart, in the late 1980s.
3. Equinox.
4. Saturday Night.
5. West magazine (Globe and Mail; western Canada)
6. Spy.
saturday night with Mathew Church as editor.
Spy!
Canadian mag? Pfft!
Sorry, that was me -- didn't read the made-in-Canada stipulation. (BTW, so are Details and Smart.)
SPY, hands down. Saturday Night for sure, but which Saturday Night? Robert's, John's, Ken's, the weekly, Mathew's, Gary's? All good, all different.
D.B. asked: "Which departed CANADIAN magazine would you like to have back, were you to have the power to make it happen?" On the miniOnline site, I voted for Spy, without question. But Canadian mag: Saturday Night. Terry pointed out, which incarnation? I'd just like to have it around again, in different incarnations under future editors, so long as it retained its basic current affairs/arts/culture mandate. Our cultural life needs more of this, not shopping magazines.
Tish hands down
LOLA, of course.
Shift!!!!!
And Elm Street
