Wait, don't hit that lock thread button.
This isn't about ethics or morality of 'vile' content.
What I'm thinking now is that issue #300 should have been a landmark issue. Thinking back to issue #200 it seemed more of a big deal that they hit that issue.
Now with 300 they have one article about the evolution of the magazine, then devote the rest of it to a product tie-in.
Instead of the heavy product tie-in, why didn't the publisher go with a more general overview? Get a big name fiction writer to do a short story. A guest article by some big names: Cook, Greenwood, even Hickman!
So we get a crummy product tie-in for 75% of the mag. Aim higher, don't go for an issue that will be irrelevant when the next product comes out, but one that will be looked at as a standard for the next 100 issues.
Wait, oh no. What if that IS the standard for the next 100 issues?
