With a cover
barely distinguishable from the average British lads’ mag, the first UK
version of infamous American porn magazine Hustler has just hit the
newsstands.
The title offers a free porn DVD every issue – also in common with many British men’s glossies.
But
cynics may say the title does differ from the likes of Loaded, Maxim
and FHM in one key area – according to publisher Larry Flynt it
contains “thought-provoking articles and comment”, with issue one
featuring writing by US academic Noam Chomsky and a retrospective on
the work of photographer Clive McClean, as well as a thorough survey of
“coversluts”
Krystal Steal and McKenzie Lee.
In a
statement, Flynt’s spokesman said: “This is a package that will have
other top-shelf magazines quaking in their thigh-length boots.
“Plus,
Hustler UK Edition will contain its fair share of thought-provoking
articles and comment, so politicians, lords, stars and starlets beware.”
