Marvel Ultimate EndGame #1 Covers

CHECK OUT ALL THE COVERS FOR ULTIMATE ENDGAME #1, THE START OF THE ULTIMATE UNIVERSE’S FINAL CHAPTER!

The debut issue of ULTIMATE ENDGAME, the climactic five-issue series from Deniz Camp, Jonas Scharf, and Terry Dodson, hits stands on December 31.

One of the most captivating visions of the Marvel mythos is coming to an end! The final days of the Ultimate Universe, the acclaimed line of titles that ignited the industry over the last two years, begins on December 31 in ULTIMATE ENDGAME.

The five-issue event series by Ultimates writer Deniz Camp and superstar artists Jonas Scharf and Terry Dodson brings the Ultimate series together for the long-awaited showdown with the architect behind this twisted universe, the Maker. To mark the occasion, ULTIMATE ENDGAME #1 will introduce True Belivers Blind Bags, Marvel’s first-ever Blind Bag program, that give fans a chance to purchase the issue in special sealed bags containing one of the issue’s variant covers, including rare covers exclusive to Blind Bags like the recently revealed hand-drawn, one-of-a-kind sketch covers. Today, check out all the available-to-order covers along with a sneak peek at some of the surprise covers that can only be found in True Believers Blind Bags.

Fans are still in disbelief following New York Comic Con where Marvel Comics officially revealed that the Ultimate Universe would conclude next year with final issues of Ultimate Spider-Man, Ultimate Black Panther, Ultimate X-Men, Ultimates, and Ultimate Wolverine all centered around the events of ULTIMATE ENDGAME. Told in real time month to month, the ULTIMATE UNIVERSE was an ambitious storytelling venture that exceeded all expectations. Now, it ends on a definitive high point, delivering a complete, innovative saga that can be enjoyed by fans—beginning, middle, and end—for generations to come.

Created by Jonathan Hickman and Bryan Hitch in Ultimate Invasion, the Ultimate Universe was built with a predetermined endpoint—the Maker’s return from captivity! In ULTIMATE ENDGAME, two years have passed in the Ultimate Universe, but inside the City, the Maker has had thousands of years to prepare for his return! With the barrier around the City finally gone, heroes all across the Ultimate Universe must mobilize to defeat the Maker before it’s game over. For everyone. Meanwhile, the rest of the world wages World War III…

The Ultimate Universe will leave its mark on the main Marvel Universe in the way of “Origin Boxes,” the very devices the Maker used to rob legendary heroes of their powers. In ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN: INCURSION #5, on sale later this month, Miles Morales will swing back to the 616 with a handful of these boxes, setting the stage for new heroes and storylines throughout 2026.

“ULTIMATE ENDGAME is the culmination of everything Jon [Hickman] began in Ultimate Invasion, and also what I’ve been doing with Juan [Frigeri] and Federico [Blee] in Ultimates,” Camp told ComicBook in an interview last week. “I’m excited to bring these stories some resolution with the freedom that’s only possible in the Ultimate Universe; I’m excited that I get to let each story develop naturally, according to what the stories and characters need. We want to pack every page with the beautiful, the tragic, the funny, the astonishing, the devastatingly quiet and the bombastically loud.”

Don’t miss a moment that’s sure to take place in Marvel Comics history—preorder ULTIMATE ENDGAME #1 at your local comic shop today! For more information, visit Marvel.com.

Arguably, one of the top twenty of all time, Markus Klinko, is within the same stratosphere as Steven Meisel, Annie Leibovitz, Ben Watts, Stuart Schining, David LaChapelle, Cliff Watts and Moshe Brakha via Vaughn Lowery's 360 MAGAZINE.

Markus Klinko: Among the Best

Arguably, one of the top twenty of all time, Markus Klinko, is within the same stratosphere as Steven Meisel, Annie Leibovitz, Ben Watts, Stuart Schining, David LaChapelle, Cliff Watts and Moshe Brakha. All of which possess a certain technique, whimsicality and composition that’s unparalleled, forever etching their mark on this era. Their insatiable desire to devour all things iconic in fashion, music, and entertainment through their lenses has always been apparent. However, it was Klinko’s iconic album art for a certain super star that ushered him into a spotlight of his own.

Before embarking on his journey as a legendary photographer, which was constantly featured in Vogue, Elle, Harper’s Bazaar, he was a signed recording artist with EMI Classics. In 1994, after a hand injury, he procured an assignment at a studio alongside long-time friend and powerhouse producer Indrani. The duo went on to creatively direct poignant portraits, which ultimately led to several advertising campaigns:
Lancôme, L’Oréal Paris, Nike, Hugo Boss, Anna Sui, Pepsi, Skyy Vodka, and Remy Martin.

With 3 decades+ of capturing culture through his life-altering lens, this Los Angeles shutterbug has incredible behind-the-scenes stories from his most famous shoots: Beyoncé, Mariah Carey, Kim Kardashian, Paris Hilton, Ice SpiceHolly Madison, Usher, Lady Gaga, Pharrell Williams, Mary J. Blige, Laeticia Casta, David Bowie, Iman, Britney Spears, Alicia Keys, Serena Williams, Justin Timberlake, Will Smith, Jennifer Lopez, Kate Winslet, Anne Hathaway, Lindsay Lohan, and Naomi Campbell.

Klinko has appeared on E! News, Access Hollywood, Fashion Television, CNN’s Showbiz Tonight, Larry King Live, and has been the subject of the documentary series, Double Exposure on the Bravo network.

In addition to his illustrious career, Markus Klinko has been globally exhibited and showcased his works at major galleries as well as the Lincoln Center and Pacific Design Center.

ASHNIKKO RELEASES NEW ALBUM 'SMOOCHIES' via 360 MAGAZINE.

ASHNIKKO RELEASES NEW ALBUM ‘SMOOCHIES’

Ashnikko releases her highly-anticipated second studio album Smoochies – out everywhere via Parlophone/Warner Records. An explosion of maximalist pop with club, country, and hip-hop inflections, Smoochies finds Ashnikko fully stepping into the commanding-but-hyper-cute persona she created for herself as a teenager. The album follows 2023’s debut WEEDKILLER and is released alongside focus track “Skin Cleared” – watch the official visualizer HERE.

LISTEN TO SMOOCHIES HERE 

Ashnikko’s second album, Smoochies, is her most personal body of work to date. It sonically expands her distinct hybrid-pop sound while taking a significantly more autobiographical approach to lyrics. The 15-track album is a rebellious one, made from a place of radical joy at a time when the world has never felt more threatening for femmes and marginalized communities. In response, Ashnikko is taking up space by inhabiting a state of pure play. It’s absurd and grotesque, explicit and tender, sexy without an ounce of desire to perform for the male gaze. 

On Smoochies, Ashnikko says: “smoochie world was such an important place for me to inhabit to remind myself why i make music – to play. it was an exercise in eroticism, in power, in mischief, in not taking myself too seriously. smoochies is the tiny door you find in the club bathroom that you crawl through on your hands and knees to a technicolor parallel dimension ruled by rat princesses. I learned so much through writing this album, and i had a fucking amazing time.”

The new album marks a return to the effervescent mix of sugary pop melodies and domineering rap that became Ashnikko’s calling card early on, while elevating her natural mischievousness into an artform. To help bring that to life, she worked with longtime producer/songwriter Tom Slinger and also had input from a cast of smash hitmakers like Skyler Stonestreet, Oscar Scheller, Tove Burman, Elvira Anderfjard, Luka Kloser, Steph Jones, and Cleo Tighe – making Smoochies Ashnikko’s most collaborative album to date.

The songs cover everything from the erotic possibility that arises after a break-up (“Itty Bitty”), to carnal yearning (“She’s So Pretty”), to recent experiences of dating and collecting boys like Labubus (“Trinkets” / “I Want My Boyfriends to Kiss”). In addition to celebrating her messy side, “Smoochie Girl” also outs her as a lover girl. The pounding and sultry “Skin Cleared” is about the physicality of heartbreak. Acid tongue lyrics capture the raw pettiness that arises in the aftermath, but also reflect how the mind influences the body by being deliberately ignorant about the connection (“I don’t even get the flu anymore / What does that mean?”).

Smoochies wears Ashnikko’s vulnerabilities on its sleeve. She allows herself to reflect, to be intense, to be “too much,” and ultimately to heal. “Full Frontal” is a commentary on aging, exaggerating the desire to be smooth-brained to camp extremes – like “The Substance” as a rubbery techno banger. The gentle acoustic closer “It Girl” delivers a damning commentary of fame while extending kindness towards the childhood void that fame often ends up filling. 

Ultimately, the core of Smoochies is personal autonomy, joyful whimsy, and a reverence for having a good time – building blocks that have been with Ashnikko since the start, which she has now used to build a feel-good paradise that rejects performance and embraces reality with all its perfect imperfections.

Last month, Ashnikko announced the global SMOOCHIES Tour with an impressive 45 dates. In addition to her previously announced UK and Ireland dates, Ashnikko will bring her unmissable live show to stages across North America, Europe, and Australia. The North American leg of the tour kicks off in Phoenix, AZ on March 18, 2026 and stops in major cities including New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago, Nashville, and more before wrapping in Toronto on May 19, 2026. Tickets for all dates are on sale now – purchase HERE

ASHNIKKO RELEASES NEW ALBUM 'SMOOCHIES' via 360 MAGAZINE.

Ashnikko has achieved some huge milestones for an artist just one album into her career, surpassing 3.9 Billion global streams and 700 million video views to date, with hit songs “Slumber party” and “Daisy”. Following the release of her debut album, WEEDKILLER, in 2023 Ashnikko has spent the past 18 months touring across the globe including a headline show at the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado, a headline tour across Latin America and festival sets at Reading & Leeds, Madcool, Bonnaroo, NOS Alive and more. Earlier this year, Ashnikko took to the road across Australia opening for Billie Eilish on her “Hit Me Hard and Soft” tour, performing at arenas across the country to tens of thousands of fans. Her second studio album Smoochies is out now.

ICE SPICE DROPS NEW VIDEO FOR ‘BADDIE BADDIE’

Produced by Ice Spice’s longtime collaborator RiotUSA — who also handled production on career-defining hits like her gold-certified breakout single “Munch (Feelin U)” — “Baddie Baddie” samples M.I.A.’s iconic and era-defining anthem, “Bad Girls.”

Most recently, Ice was featured on the cover of NYLON for their September Issue; she also teamed up with ATL-based Grammy nominated Queen of the Souf rapper Latto for the first time ever to surprise drop new single “Gyatt” via RCA Records — click HERE to listen. The official music video directed by Hidji World, notably garnered over 7 million views in just 2 weeks of its release – check out the video HERE.

Earlier this year, Ice Spice made her film debut in Spike Lee’s latest film, Highest 2 Lowest, starring Denzel Washington and A$AP Rocky. Ice is also set to make her return to the big screen this December in the upcoming SpongeBob Movie – The SpongeBob Movie: Search for Squarepants, and release a new original song for the film.

Ice’s wildly anticipated official debut album Y2K!, was originally released in July 2024 to rave reviews and came stacked with hits including the Sean Paul-sampling “Gimmie A Light” and hater-dismissing “Think U The Shit (Fart),” which notably became her highest solo charting single on the Billboard Hot 100 (#37).

IRON MAIDEN’s LIVE AFTER DEATH VINYL

IRON MAIDEN – ‘Live After Death’ 40TH Anniversary Limited Edition Collectors 2LP Vinyl Released December 12th 2025

Exactly 40 years to the day since it was first released, BMG is pleased to announce a brand new, beautifully packaged, limited collectors 2LP color vinyl edition of IRON MAIDEN’s classic album LIVE AFTER DEATH

Available to pre-order in the U.S. as a Walmart exclusive.

Featuring the original revered gatefold sleeve artwork, the album comes with two 140g vinyls (one in blue, the other in yellow) featuring the 2015 audio remastering. The package also includes a replica 24-page World Slavery Tour program, bringing back to life the original tour program for new generations. 

Additionally the vinyl features a replica tour pass and a glossy 12-page booklet, which contains the original eight-page booklet alongside an exclusive and brand-new essay entitled Rime And Punishment: Celebrating 40 Years Of Live After Death, where Iron Maiden fan club editor Alexander Milas interviews Steve Harris, Nicko McBrain, Rod Smallwood and acclaimed illustrator Derek Riggs about the legendary album.

As Steve Harris explains of the time, “We were touring our arses off. It was literally just, ‘record, tour, record, tour’ – we didn’t stop. Rod was cracking the old whip, and that was the right thing to do. I mean, we were totally up for it, it’s not like we were doing stuff that we didn’t want to do. You think you’re invincible – ‘Yeah, we’ll take that on, no problem.’ That’s the way to crack it. It’s the only way for a band like us because we had no radio play whatsoever back then.”

Widely acclaimed as not just the greatest heavy metal live album of all time, but one of the most iconic live releases in any musical genre, LIVE AFTER DEATHwas recorded mostly during the four nights that Maiden played at Los Angeles’ Long Beach Arena in March 1985. The final side of the double album was recorded during the four nights the band played at Hammersmith Odeon in October 1984. 

Both sets of concerts were part of the ground-breaking World Slavery Tour, in support of the band’s 1984 album Powerslave, which started in Poland and featured 187 concerts across 331 days. The tour firmly established Iron Maiden as one of the most exciting live bands on the planet, a reputation that they carry to this day.

Now in their 50th year Iron Maiden have released 17 studio albums and sold well over 100 million records worldwide, played almost 2,500 live shows across 64 countries, been the recipients of a Grammy Award® and a Brit Award among many other accolades, most recently joining the Rolling Stones and Pink Floyd with their very own Royal Mail stamp set, and also honored by the Royal Mint with a collection of official coins released in 2025. 

Their beer, Trooper Beer, is now in its twelfth year and has sold in excess of 40 million pints and is distributed in 68 countries including six local variants in USA, Germany, Brazil, Spain, Sweden and Australia. 2025 marks the band’s official 50th year and is being celebrated by a two-year world tour entitled Run For Your Lives and a range of events and products including their first ever official hardcover visual history book, Infinite Dreams.

A documentary film about Iron Maiden by Universal Pictures Content Group will be released in early 2026, and the band will continue their two year Run For Your Lives World Tour through Europe and beyond. The tour includes a huge and historic performance at Knebworth Park in the U.K. on July 11, 2026.

Women's Louis Vuitton Ski 2025 via Vaughn Lowery + 360 MAGAZINE.

Women’s Louis Vuitton Ski 2025

As the first frosts draw near, Louis Vuitton unveils LV SKI, a complete, sophisticated, and high-performance collection that is elevating the House’s Art of Travel to new heights.

Designed for winter sports, the technical pieces include graphic coats and salopettes, crafted in an ultra-lightweight and fully waterproof technical fabric. The line is ideal for hitting the slopes in refined, versatile and practical pieces.

These nylon creations combine textile innovation with thermal protection and freedom of movement thanks to their extreme lightness.

Recycled nylon jackets are embellished with quilted-effect topstitching in a nod to the House’s signature Malletage quilting, inspired by the same material that once adorned the interior of Louis Vuitton trunks.

For après-ski attire, knitwear featuring Norwegian motifs or stitched with Monogram flowers is teamed with sequin-embroidered denim, reflecting the energy of the mountain peaks. 

Leather goods enhance this wardrobe, particularly through the Monogram Miroir canvas, a tribute to the metal trunks from 1891 that were reworked in the 2000s. Inspired by glaciers, it highlights the retro-futuristic aesthetic of the Alma, Speedy, Petite Malle and OnTheGo bags. In addition to silver, the Monogram Miroir canvas is also available this season in a new coppery shade. 

For a more wintry look, shearling adorns the Capucines and a Neverfull Inside Out BB, reimagined in a chocolate or beige Cozygram version. Pairing Monogram canvas with merino shearling has sparked the creation of Teddy Muff, an irresistible collector’s model that is part sleeve, part bag.

For a sportier silhouette, the Speedy and the High Raise belt bag have been updated in denim-look nylon, the perfect companions for ski adventures and city breaks alike.

The collection, designed for those who enjoy soaking up the mountain atmosphere without putting on ski boots, offers footwear for all times of day.

Crafted in suede leather or trimmed with shearling, the Cortina ankle boots and mules feature a lug sole adorned with Monogram flowers, ideal for sophisticated yet effortless looks. 

The LV Cloud boots borrow the same motif used on nylon and taffeta jackets for a contemporary sportswear aesthetic. 

To tackle the winter cold head-on, hoods, hats and scarves are available in deep black or sophisticated cream to accent the silhouette as desired. Other textiles, adorned with the shearling Monogram motif, offer an envelope of softness and warmth.

To complete the silhouette, the now iconic ski mask with Monogram lenses lends a contemporary and sporty touch. 

Promising glorious and high-performance moments, this complete collection is the epitome of Winter 2025 travel-wear.
