About

Manifesto Maravillado – The Marvelous Manifest – is an electrifying, riotous fusion of futurism, garage punk, lowbrow art, sci-fi, and the bold, psychedelic explosion of ’60s pop culture. It’s a wild tribute to the beautifully bizarre, where the chaos of human de-evolution is worn like a badge of honor, and the celebration of our “monkey mind” reigns supreme.

Here, I, The Great Ape, guide you through a world that revels in the absurd and ridiculous, where we fully embrace the idea that humanity is gleefully stumbling backward into a delicious stew of B-grade chaos. From pinups to gassers, drag racing to retro-futurism, Manifesto Maravillado is your gateway into the weird and wonderful corners of pop culture’s underbelly. It’s a joyous, anarchic mash-up of rubber monsters, rocket ships, and unapologetic human folly.

Imagine a place where punk rock attitude meets space-age daydreams, where the future collides head-on with the smoky, grease-stained past. In the pages of Manifesto Maravillado, you’ll find yourself immersed in a world where hot rods roar down intergalactic highways and pinup queens pose in gleaming chrome spaceships. The art is drenched in the ethos of DIY rebellion, featuring gritty textures, bold lines, and characters that leap off the page – a perfect homage to the lowbrow world of underground culture. Every piece drips with attitude and speaks the language of the irreverent, the outlaw, the beautifully de-evolved.

We are a species that’s not getting smarter but better at having fun in our de-evolution. And what better way to celebrate than through B-movie brilliance and wild, unhinged art? Here, you’ll find pinups who embrace their inner alien, drag racers who battle time and space, and retro-futuristic visions that balance on the razor’s edge between kitsch and cool. Manifesto Maravillado lives in a world where nothing is too serious, but everything is deeply fun – where we laugh in the face of logic and let our ape-like nature roam free.

At Manifesto Maravillado, we don’t just acknowledge our freakshow existence – we celebrate it with a wild grin and a mischievous wink. This is the magazine that takes you on a madcap ride through the beautifully twisted side streets of pop culture, filled with campy glamour, drag strip grease, and a kaleidoscopic swirl of counterculture rebellion. Think rockabilly attitude wrapped in a layer of space-age fantasies, all presented with a cheeky nod to retro cool.

It’s a place where the past, present, and future merge in a frenzied, but harmonious dance – a world where you can lose yourself in the vibrant celebration of the garage punk scene, the retro-futuristic dreams of yesteryear, and the joyful absurdity of the present. From Edelbrock engines to E.T. creatures, Manifesto Maravillado is a manifesto for the bold, the unhinged, and the unashamed.

With its irreverent heart firmly planted in the bizarre, Manifesto Maravillado will take you on a journey through the universe’s coolest subcultures, where no one takes themselves too seriously, but everyone is having a hell of a lot of fun. Welcome to Planet Ape, where our de-evolution is not a tragedy but a glorious, anarchic ride into the cosmos of creative chaos. Strap in and enjoy the absurdity—The Great Ape has the controls, and we’re going full throttle into madness!

I must caution you. Experimental brain surgery on these creatures is one thing, and I’m all in favor of it. But your behavior studies are another matter. To suggest that we can learn anything about the simian nature from a study of man is sheer nonsense. Why, man is a nuisance. He eats up his food supply in the forest, then migrates to our green veldts and ravages our crops. The sooner he is exterminated, the better. It’s a question of simian survival.
