Fangoria magazine is one of the preeminent horror publications and has been for so many years. It’s been the official record of horror movies, television, and pop culture for decades..

So it was exciting to see that someone out there is running a Kickstarter campaign to preserve every issue, page by page, for posterity and historical purposes. That’s amazing.

And by the way, we get no profit from this and have no motive for posting it beyond genuine appreciation for the magazine itself and what it has contributed to this corner of the entertainment world over the years.

But it goes beyond Fangoria. We need to preserve more. Too many things get lost in the shuffle of online pop-culture representation, and we move so fast that the permanent record of what once was seems to vanish within seconds. Links go dead. Facts become blurry. Sources we once found are suddenly impossible to locate again.

That’s what makes this Kickstarter—and others like it—so important. It preserves something that mattered, and it keeps that meaning alive long beyond our own existence on this earthly plane. So good luck to everyone involved. It’s a great idea, and everyone should be thrilled with the result if it all works out.
