20 Noticeable magazine covers in the last three months!

Only 10 years ago today, when I used to write for this blog, I used to get around 30 great covers every month. Even at times, many magazine covers had to struggle to make their place in the ‘Top 30 of the month’. Sadly, today the editorial quality of magazines has become so bad that even three months in a row, it is difficult to collect a total of 20 great covers. The condition of Hindi magazines is even worse, the benchmark has to be pushed too low to include one or two of them anyway. Only the publisher and editorial team is responsible for this bad condition, no one else.

A few of noticeable magazine covers from last couple of months!

It is really upsetting nowadays that I have to wait for 4-6 months to see good magazine covers those I can count easily on fingers… and then publishers crib that magazines are dying.

TOP 30 INDIAN MAGAZINE COVERS PUBLISHED IN THE LAST QUARTER OF 2019

Why did we like them?

Broadly, for their newsstand appeal, editorial vision, visual communication, cover story lines, the design discipline and many other factors. But microscopically, they all have several reasons to be in the TOP 30 COVERS. 

     We have gone thorough more than 500 magazines published in India in English or Hindi language in the last quarter of 2019. Magazines were considered from all the genres including News, Business, General Interest, Lifestyle, Men’s, Women’s, Fashion, Home, Entertainment, Technology, Culture, Children, Arts, Travel, Parenting, Health, Automobile and Hobbies. 

     Covers for this study and for the representation purpose are sourced from newsstands, publications’ own websites & online magazine stores.

Newsstand Observations

New Launches 























IMG-20171022-WA0022MAIN HU KISAN - Sep 2017 
The most pathetic cover of any magazine I have seen so far! 
   Just look at the masthead - Main Hu Kisan, and then look at the main visual and the cover stories(?). Do you see any connection between the genre of the magazine (as its title suggests) and the main visual? It happens when a magazine is managed by a person with no publishing & editorial skills. 
   As a magazine critic, all I can say on this cover - What were they thinking?  
Anniversary vs regular issues of BPBETTER PHOTOGRAPHY - Jun 2017
They should realise that in order to make ‘zara hatke’ (or call it ‘extra ordinary’ cover) for the ‘special’ (anniversary) issue, they actually produce the worse cover! Look at the regular covers (All on the Right); they are focused, logical, thoughtful, disciplined, branded and are still creative unlike the ‘special’ cover (on the Left). In the name of ‘special’ you cannot do just whatever you want to do… at least the regular covers have strong connection between the theme of the issue, the main visual and the main cover story. Latest cover of BP anniversary issue is not even aesthetically pleasing.
Badly designed Maxim Hot 100 CoverMAXIM - Jun/Jul 2017
One more badly designed cover! MAXIM’s 'HOT 100’ special issue…A good photograph… but poor visualisation…unattractive copy for the cover stories… weight imbalance… very indisciplined & basic mistakes of making a great cover of a special issue… looks very shallow issue by looking at this cover (Left). Some of the past covers (all on the Right) were great in comparison to this current issue… even that ‘only text’ cover was also better at least that one had minimum elements on the covers and therefore there was lesser scope left for the creative team for creating mistakes.
Indian Naked cover vs Foreign MagazinesELLE - May 2017
Still lot to learn before Indian magazines go for such covers (left) in the line of foreign magazines (all on the right). This could be a great cover of ELLE (India) but they just spoiled the opportunity.
