Dr. Lakra is the current cover of Juxtapoz Magazine, and they have a nice companion feature on the Mexico-based tattoo and fine artist. Caleb Neelon, who is a writer and artist himself, interviewed Lakra, and they had this exchange:
Caleb: I heard that somewhere along in this time, your work came out in the very first issue of Juxtapoz.
Dr. Lakra: When the first issue came out I think they invited a few people to participate or to recommend people they liked. One of those people was Ed Hardy, and he recommended me. I met him at a few conventions, maybe a few months before that, around 1993, and the magazine came out in 1994.
