The Black Seal reminds me of a cross between the classic Shadis and Unspeakable Oath magazines - it's an excellent periodical devoted to the Delta Green and modern-day Call of Cthulhu RPGs. This issue is packed with useful information - weapons and equipment, NPCs to use in your adventures, story seeds, background and regional information, adventures, and reviews. All of it is presented in a clear and uncluttered format, and while there are a few (very good) illustrations here and there, the majority of this magazine is text.
