Due to the death of editor Joe Meno, BRICKJOURNAL #92 will be the final issue. After #92 ships in July, remaining subscription issues will be filled with BLOCKS magazine—which will contain a new BRICKJOURNAL section by some of the regular BRICKJOURNAL contributors readers have come to love. Best of all, BLOCKS is monthly, so BRICKJOURNAL subscribers get an even more frequent Lego® fix!
Plus: BRICKJOURNAL digital subscribers will get three months of unlimited access to the BLOCKS digital archive of over 100 back issues, including their latest issues. And print subscribers also get unlimited access to that digital archive of BLOCKS back issues until their print subscription expires.
If you’re not familiar with BLOCKS, it’s been published for over a decade in the UK by Silverback Publishing Ltd., and is rapidly expanding into the US. We hope BRICKJOURNAL customers will give it a try, as this switchover idea was approved by editor Joe Meno before his passing, and his family and BRICKJOURNAL contributors have endorsed it.
For those who don’t wish to receive BLOCKS issues, TwoMorrows Publishing has other options for the remainder of their BRICKJOURNAL subscriptions:
1) Exchange their remaining subscription issues 1-for-1 for BrickJournal back issues, extra copies of #92, or our Minifigure Customization or You Can Build It instruction books, while they last. Just let us know which ones you want by email (store@twomorrows.com) or phone (919-449-0344)
2) Transfer their remaining BRICKJOURNAL issues to another TwoMorrows magazine (RetroFan, Cryptology, Back Issue, Alter Ego, Comic Book Creator, or the Jack Kirby Collector)
3) Apply their balance as a credit toward any TwoMorrows book, or request a refund ?
(If you’re already a BLOCKS subscriber, you’ll need to choose one of the other options above.)
Unless we hear from customers by April 15, their first issue of BLOCKS will automatically ship to them this Fall, and they’ll be notified by Silverback Publishing Ltd. with details on how to access the BLOCKS digital archive.
Thanks for supporting BrickJournal since 2008!

I’m deeply saddened to report that BrickJournal founder/editor Joe Meno died today (February 11), after a battle with prostate cancer. I take comfort in knowing he was surrounded by his loving family, and passed peacefully.
Joe’s been a dear friend since we first met in 1988, long before I knew he had any interest in LEGO. He was such a kind and fun-loving person, and was very inspirational to me, with an unceasingly positive attitude for as long as I’ve known him, even throughout his cancer fight.
I plan to complete his final issue of BrickJournal (#92), as I know he wanted. If you have personal recollections of Joe you’d like to share for that issue, please email them to me at twomorrow@aol.com
