Abstract

Internet Underground was an internet culture magazine by Sendai Publishing, the publishers of Electronic Gaming Monthly. Like other internet magazines published in the mid-1990s, Internet Underground covered current topics in internet culture. The magazine also included featured articles and reviews of popular websites at a time when the web was small enough to cover within the scope of a magazine.

Internet Underground ran for about a year and a half. According to former Internet Underground webmaster Troy Brophy, the magazine was discontinued midway through the production of its nineteenth issue (July 1997).
