Lucha Loco is Mexican Free Wrestling (fighting) and it's also the name of an upcoming photo book by the British photographer Malcolm Venville. It'll be released November 1, containing more than 100 images of luchadores - like Super Porky, Las Momias and Dr Cerebro - in their colourful masks and costumes. Interested?

Information: On the move

As I'll be moving this weekend there will be no posting until I'm settled and the internet is up and running. I'm expecting a bit of trouble with that but we'll see. Stay tuned!
