= The rare first issue. NRC reviewed this first issue as follows: "(...) toegankelijk geschreven artikelen, zoals Het seksloze orgasme van Dirk van Weelden. Hij filosofeert aanstekelijk over de toekomstmogelijkheden om seks te hebben met computeronderdelen die de gewaarwording van aanrakingen nabootsen: cyberseks. Hester Carvalho schrijft over de Blue Man Group, alternatieve musici uit New York. Theo van Gogh maakte een ietwat pervers maar hilarisch gefingeerd interview met sterverslaggever van het roddelblad Privé, Barbara Plugge.
Minstens zo belangrijk als de inhoud is de vormgeving van Blvd., waarin het beeld (foto's van Inez van Lamsweerde) en een drukke typografie overheersen. Geheel in het verlengde van de New Age-koppeling van natuur en techniek gebruiken de vormgevers onder meer in de computer ingevoerde handgeschreven letters."
= Signed by both artists.
