Not all that great to be honest. Each issue is short, about 30 pages or so. The only thing about it that is consistently worth reading is Stanton Friedman's column, although it gets repetative pretty fast because he constantly uses his own set of personalized ufological "buzz words." It seems like in every column he mentions "tribal warfare," "3,000 trace cases," "SETI cultists," "long term survival," etc.
Occasionally interesting articles will be published, but mostly it's just Stan Friedman, a star map and accounts of UFO sightings. And honestly, UFO sightings aren't that interesting. One can only read "I saw a weird light zipping around in the sky" so many times before one would rather be anal probed than keep going. It would make a good free newsletter, but it sure as heck isn't worth $ bucks for a subscription.
If you're still interested in it despite my review, visit the Black Vault Wiki where PDFs of all of the pre-2008 back issues are available to download for free.Ive done alot of reading and research into UFO's and the paranormal since junior high, and though Im old enough to have a child in junior high I still find new material refreshing, and while MUFON has been around awhile and cant count as new it is quickly apparent that it is still around because of the quality and clout of the content. It is great to have this subject approached "Evidence Oriented" not senstional stories. Anyone into keeping up with the bottom line in UFOlogy needs to keep up with the MUFON journal.
