Why Gothic and Amazing

Most goth coverage online still leans into horror, occult shock or pure depression. We never have. Our editorial line, set the night the magazine was created, is to find what is dark and still beautiful — what is dramatic and still wearable, what is romantic and still subcultural. We do not publish horror imagery, pornographic content, religious or political messaging, or anything that promotes hate. We credit every model, every photographer, every brand, every make-up artist on every editorial we publish, and we treat unknown contributors with the same care as established ones.

Where can I buy printed issues of G&A Magazine?

Printed and digital issues are sold through MagCloud and Peecho (print-on-demand), and selected issues and merchandise are also available on the official G&A Shop.

Is gothicandamazing.org affiliated with this magazine?

No. The .org domain was our original site until we moved to gothicandamazing.com. The .org address has since been picked up by an unrelated third party and is no longer connected to Gothic and Amazing in any way.

Do you publish horror, pornographic, political or religious content?

No. Since day one, our editorial charter excludes horror, pornographic, religious and political content, as well as anything promoting racism or hate. We focus on dark beauty, alternative fashion and subcultural art.

Can models, designers and shops be featured for free?

Most editorial features are unpaid on both sides — we do not charge brands or models for inclusion in our regular editorials. A small processing fee applies to certain submission tracks (magazine submissions, dedicated features) and helps cover the operational costs of the magazine.
