"A publication that artists can use as a resource for self-promotion and a platform to get their ideas out to an audience. Grouped together, outside the box. Mandrake the Magician had used cross-promotion as one of the keys to his worldwide success. As each one of us continues to grow, we have the opportunity to elevate each other, and that is the beating heart behind Mandrake Magazine".
