MARQUIS and cuteanddangerousXXX Announce Strategic Cooperation
Berlin, May 11, 2026 – The U-Line Verlag and cuteanddangerousXXX (C&DXXX) have entered into a comprehensive strategic partnership on equal terms. The aim of the collaboration is to further strengthen both brands and expand their presence in the international fetish and erotica market.
The partnership between the publisher of the renowned MARQUIS Magazine and the established provider cuteanddangerousXXX is the result of a long-standing relationship of trust. MARQUIS creator and U-Line CEO Andreas Reichardt and C&DXXX CEO Oliver Williams had known each other for some time and held in-depth discussions during a calmer period following the last Pleasure Bay event.
Oliver Williams emphasizes the importance of the cooperation:
“Even if you are the number one in the market, there is always room to go a little further, and of course it is essential to maintain that position in the long term. MARQUIS Magazine is not just a brand — it is an institution in the global market. For 32 years, the magazine has held its ground along with an environment that truly deserves the title ‘crème de la crème.’”

Andreas Reichardt adds:
“When I took over MARQUIS Magazine from Peter W. Czernich in 2019, one crisis followed another. We no longer care about that. We don’t wait for better times — we create better times! MARQUIS is a strong brand that has been successfully introduced to a younger audience as well. In Oliver Williams we have a true professional on the team who supports us and with whom we can further increase the visibility of the brand.”
The first joint project is the revival of the MARQUIS AWARD. Nominations in ten categories are already open on the official Instagram channel @marquismagazine_v3. The shortlist of nominees will be published in the upcoming issue 89 of MARQUIS Magazine. Voting will then take place, with the winners to be announced in November 2026.
The cooperation between MARQUIS and cuteanddangerousXXX combines decades of magazine expertise with modern industry know-how and promises fresh momentum for the entire scene.
