Re-launching the Past to Create the Future? Good or bad for Profits & Culture?

Today Fairchild Fashion Media announced that they're bringing back M magazine, which back in the 80's was initially known as M: The Civilized Man. "It will be a big beautiful magazine with a circulation of about 100,000," Fairchild Editorial Director Peter W. Kaplan told the New York Post's Keith Kelly. "It will be for guys in their thirties and forties who are Web-savvy but want to hold onto print."
It's an interesting move. And we get the gist: a high fashion-focused magazine for men, aimed at men of a certain age who might remember M in its glory days or younger men who want to enjoy a magazine printed on paper. It also makes sense since there's a dearth of American high fashion men's magazines. http://www.theatlanticwire.com

Re-launching the Past to Create the Future? Good or bad for Profits & Culture?

I certainly read M: The Civilized Man and learned to appreciate great tweeds & classic European American looks. This magazine definitely influenced my view of fashion & pop culture.

I read JFKJr's George Magazine to shape my politics. (Wish it had more time here on this planet).

I'd like to see both of these magazines make a comeback via a re-launch. I think it would be a  positive source of content for impressionable young male minds who could use examples of what to aspire to for the next level in becoming a modern day man of good character.
