Kickstarter Alert! Help Fund The Encyclopedia Madonnica 20th Anniversery Edition

Back in 1995, St. Martin’s Press published an exhaustive, unofficial A-to-Z on the life and career of Madonna called Encyclopedia Madonnica. It was written by Boy Culture’s Matthew Rettenmund and featured a massive archive of “Madonnabelia,” documenting the incredible phenomenon of the girl from Bay City who in her first 13 years on the pop scene had become one of the greatest music icons (and one of the most controversial public figures) of all time.

That was 20 years ago, though, and since then A LOT has happened. Now, Matthew has started a Kickstarter to make a definitive update of the ultimate, unauthorized Madonna fan book a reality! Help make it happen! He’s needs to raise $22,500. So far, he’s gotten $1,625 with 29 days to go!

The original Encyclopedia Madonnica was a paperback of about 200 black-and-white pages, with a color insert.

In keeping with Kickstarter’s motto of underpromising and overdelivering, I can promise that the update will be at least 200 pages, black-and-white, heavily illustrated and will contain some amazing, never-before-published photos of Madonna.

Depending on how much money I raise, my personal goal is to make the book quite a bit longer, in full color and to create a 500-copy initial run for collectors with a unique cover and some special content, as well as at least another 500 copies beyond that. Money permitting, I would like to offer the book not only to my generous Kickstarter donors (you get a physical copy of the book starting at the $45 donation level), but would also like to make it available via traditional outlets, like Amazon.

With your generous donations, I plan to create a sequel that will not only live up to the high expectations created by the first book, but will surpass it in scope, humor, imagery and design.
