Stuff Magazine to Fold Into Maxim

“The future owners of Dennis Publishing’s men’s titles plan to fold Stuff as a standalone magazine in the fall and make it a section in flagship Maxim, a source told Mediaweek. No word on the fate of Stuff’s staffers. John Lumpkin, publisher of Stuff, said a change in Stuff’s publishing schedule is news to him. “There’s been no discussion of suspending publication,” he said.
Kent Brownridge, who will head up the new company, did not return calls.
The news hardly comes as a shock; it was widely expected Stuff would take a different form after it was sold, along with Dennis Publishing’s other U.S. men’s titles, to private equity firm Quadrangle Group, in a $240-plus million deal. Alpha Media Group, the new name for Dennis Publishing’s men’s titles, is expected to close on the deal as early as next week.”
