"Walter Kaylin, come back!" - Mario Puzo, author of THE GODFATHER "He looked like a divinity student, always buttoned up. Then the stories would come in. They were special ... seamless and outrageous and wonderful. I let him do whatever he wanted and he rarely, if ever, disappointed. He really deserves a tribute. I think of him as a treasure." - Bruce Jay Friedman (Stern, Lucky Bruce), Kaylin's editor at MEN, MALE, and TRUE ACTION Scores of great authors wrote for men's adventure magazines (aka MAMs)-Elmore Leonard, Jim Thompson, Richard Matheson, Lawrence Block, and Harlan Ellison, to name a…mehr

"Walter Kaylin, come back!" - Mario Puzo, author of THE GODFATHER "He looked like a divinity student, always buttoned up. Then the stories would come in. They were special ... seamless and outrageous and wonderful. I let him do whatever he wanted and he rarely, if ever, disappointed. He really deserves a tribute. I think of him as a treasure." - Bruce Jay Friedman (Stern, Lucky Bruce), Kaylin's editor at MEN, MALE, and TRUE ACTION Scores of great authors wrote for men's adventure magazines (aka MAMs)-Elmore Leonard, Jim Thompson, Richard Matheson, Lawrence Block, and Harlan Ellison, to name a few. But the wordsmith writers for MAN'S WORLD and TRUE ACTION envied most was Walter Kaylin. Leaving an indelible mark on three decades of sweat-soaked pulp fiction, Walter Kaylin tackled testosterone-fueled subjects from Westerns to war, secret agents to sex sirens, Nazis to noir. His frequently over-the-top plots and characters scaled new heights of ingenuity and invention, while setting the standard for the kind of unapologetic savagery and excess that made MAMs notorious-both then and now. Robert Deis of MensPulpMags.com and Wyatt Doyle (STOP REQUESTED), editors of the acclaimed Men's Adventure Library series, rescue a whopping 15 high-intensity Kaylin classics (16 in the expanded hardcover) from pulp fiction purgatory, along with jaw-dropping illustrations from their original magazine publication ... plus reminiscences by Kaylin, his family, and his former editor, writer Bruce Jay Friedman. HE-MEN, BAG MEN, & NYMPHOS rips the lid off pulp's best-kept secret to introduce Kaylin's unique brand of tension and tough-guy thrills to a new generation of readers. But be warned: These are not stories for the delicate, or faint of heart. HE-MEN, BAG MEN, & NYMPHOS hits like a clenched fist; get yours or get out of the way!

Autorenporträt
Born in the Bronx in 1921, WALTER KAYLIN served with the Army Signal Corps as a radioman in the Philippines during WWII. By the 1950s, Kaylin was writing for Martin Goodman's Magazine Management Company, alongside writers like Mario Puzo and reporting to editor Bruce Jay Friedman.In magazines like MALE, MEN and TRUE ACTION, Kaylin left an indelible mark on three decades of sweat-soaked pulp fiction, his hundreds of stories tackling testosterone-fueled subjects from Westerns to war, secret agents to sex sirens, Nazis to noir. His frequently over-the-top plots and characters scaled new heights of ingenuity and invention while setting the standard for the kind of unapologetic savagery and excess that made men's adventure magazines notorious -then and now.Kaylin's intense, two-fisted pulp fiction was introduced to a new generation of readers in the men's adventure anthology WEASELS RIPPED MY FLESH!, followed in 2013 by HE-MEN, BAG MEN, & NYMPHOS, a solo collection of his vintage pulp. Both books were expanded and reissued in color in 2024, and are available from New Texture. Kaylin passed away in 2017.
