PUBLISHER'S STATEMENT
3 years of long, hard work has brought TORSO to spot one in the gay magazine market.
With over 354,000 monthly readers internationally, TORSO International magazine
is the largest selling gay publication in the world. Period. And we have been
since our 11th issue.
It seems only appropriate then to introduce our new title, TORSO International,
effective with this third anniversary issue.
At TORSO International we believe that establishing a progressive attitude along
with an expanding editorial format keeps us at the top and ever growing. You know
what to expect from TORSO with each copy you buy and you have grown to rely on
TORSO to provide you with the sexual satisfaction you receive from our hot, naked
men ... more men than any other gay magazine will ever give you; and, you see
them first in TORSO. Our articles are entertaining and informative; our fiction
hot and horny.
With the birth of year four we plan on bringing you the best and even more of
it than ever before. While other magazines trade ad space for still photography
shot by scumbag video producers, TORSO International photographers shoot our own
models for us. More and more we'll bring you hard, hung hunks giving it their
best; exclusively yours. lusively TORSO International. well we'll bring back your
rites for an all new shoot. his past year likewise brought Ithe birth of TORSO's
dirty little Ibrother: JOCK Magazine. The most explicit gay fuck book out.
This past year has also introduced another first. A new section to TORSO called
PSSST! What we see, hear and say about everything around us. Getting PSSST! off
and running this month we give an overview of the past year's activity on our
pages highlighting the most important points of interest.
As Publisher of TORSO International I welcome you to another fine issue of a magazine
designed especially with you in mind.
Casey L. Klinger, Publisher
