Introduction:

Dreamed up during my team’s first deployment to the heart of Iraq, this military-humor magazine has since grown to include advertisements, parodies, articles, artwork, and more.  Material for 90 issues was prepared, divided into 6 seasons of regularly published releases.  Naturally, it was too edgy for the presses, and was pre-banned before it ever made it to the public –or even to most of the editors.  You can find it here, though, with physical copies available for sale.

A season for MKM spans just shy of 4 months; 15 issues, one released every week during that time.  So far, there have been 2 years between each MKM season; I was working on it solo for the majority of its existence, and had to focus on other things when the temperature returned to mild.  The first issue’s material came together after returning from my 2004 deployment.  Since all seasons are only now (in the Summer of 2018) being uploaded to this newly-built website, some more recent material is occasionally added to seasons dated with previous years.

* This magazine is based on the darkest of military front-lines satire.  It is designed to be offensive and controversial; that is the overall style.  Navigate further only if you are okay with that.

Season 1:  Winter from 2005 to 2006; Between Wars

This first wave of MKM was prepared during the months spent training for my second combat deployment right after my first one.  What had started in Iraq was taking clearer shape back at my unit’s permanent duty station near Death Valley.  When I wasn’t ramping up with them, or instructing other units to help them prepare too, I was beating the staggering heat and freezing desert nights with more brainstorming as to how to grow this brand-new magazine.  This is the result of so many good men and true heroes being used and abused as sniper-bait and worse.

Season 2:  Winter from 2007 to 2008; 1st Year Off Active-duty

Returning to civilian life after anticipating a career of 20 years or more in the military, I was floored and at a loss as to what to try next.  Everything felt boring, numb, petty, and trivial.  I craved missions like woh.  It was all I could do just to survive and rethink my whole purpose in life.  Continuing to unleash my dark-humor side in natural bursts helped a lot, and so MKM lived on.  It got me through all the bullshit go-between jobs I needed to complete the transition.

Season 3:  Winter from 2009 to 2010; the Navy Experience

My second long-term relationship was arguably just as much of an ambush and train wreck as the first.  I handled it pretty well in stride, but it still did a severe number on me, nearly costing me my health, my freedom, and even my life.  Once again, returning to the ongoing work of preparing more issues of MKM helped keep me going.  Crippling panic attacks, and nightmarish side-effects from many ill-prescribed things, again kept me hanging on the edge, wondering if each and every moment would be my last.

Season 4:  Winter from 2011 to 2012; Evac’ from Texas to Montana

My third serious relationship was yet another ambush and train wreck, in spite of all my efforts to continue proving myself brave, intelligent, honest, and loyal.  Once again, I found myself moving out of state to recover.  Dark humor continued to be one of my only regularly available outlets for all that built-up hell, and so I let loose, drafting this 4th wave of MKM.

Season 5:  Winter from 2013 to 2014; 1st Master’s Degree Earned

Re-stabilizing took time; years, but in the wilderness of the northern Rockies near Canada, I finally pulled it off.  I was now fully aware of just how helpful my own style of humor was, and became more committed than ever before to sharing it with others, my first-hand experience now including the witnessing of damn-near miracles.

Season 6:  Winter from 2015 to 2016; Yellowstone Club, Grand Canyon, & Start-ups

The Northern Rockies along the Canadian border had treated me well.  The locals had been nicer and more helpful than in previous states.  Even the low-paying jobs resulted in my fitness and tan returning, and a number of other unexpected connections.  With three college degrees and one certification now under my belt, and having helped build, landscape, and irrigate some of the finest and most exclusive mountaintop cabins, lodges, and mansions in the world, I was ready to launch and adventure abroad yet again.

MKM now includes dark humor about each race in Inisfree, with a feature-article with edgy or racy humor about each major person in King Auz’s life.

…

Centuries Ahead:

  • During the 2100s, MKM issues had more humor and articles about the resurfacing ancients, the mega-cities, forming SSA, etc..
  • During the 2200s, MKM issues had more humor and articles about the Mapping Campaign findings.
  • During the 2300s, MKM issues had more humor and articles about the emigration to 34 Tauri.

  • During the 2500s, MKM issues had more humor and articles about the TNH work, as well as Halo-series and StarCraft events.

Then about the humor found appropriate, as our ICV mindreads can forecast and confirm, by the people whose realms we are invited to move our city to.
