Extremly rare book!

The name of Zack rings loud throughout the gay world as one of the foremost creators of erotic imagery. Under his given name Oliver Frey he has had an impressive career as an illustrator - but his pseudonym Zack stands for a marvelous cosmos of its own: sexy boys and hunky men, love, lust and total abandon. It's not often that you find an artist who has such an incredible sense for both stirring storytelling and accurate anatomy. "Zack - The Art" gives you a comprehensive overview of the hitherto existing lifework of an icon of gay art.

Ron Zack

Born in Switzerland, Oliver Frey a.k.a. Zack, ended up in London and, after supporting himself while attending the London Film School by illustrating war comics, he plunged into gay art and publishing. Innumerable illustrations poured from his pen and brush for British magazines HIM International, Vulcan, Teenage Dreams, the HIM Gay Library series, and Mister magazine. For HIM he created the mold-breaking Rogue comic strip and later The Street, which was part of the inspiration behind cult TV series Queer As Folk. His work has been seen widely through the medium of Gay Toons on the Internet (and in many blogs) and in several strips in America’s Meatmen books. He collaborates with his partner Roger Kean in creating illustrated fiction, the first available being Boys of Vice City, published by Bruno Gmünder. Recently, Gmünder published his comic-strip story compilations Bike Boy and Hot For Boys—The Sexy Adventures of Rogue. A third, Bike Boy Rides Again, is due in february 2012. He lives with his partner in a medieval town on the edge of Wales.
