From the jungles to the deserts to the mean city streets, the men's adventure magazines of the 1950s, '60s and '70s - pulpy periodicals like Real Men, Male, Man's Life, True Men Stories, Untamed, Exotic Adventures and Gusto - left no male fantasy or interest unexplored. War stories, exotic adventure yarns, "true, first-hand" accounts of white-knuckle clashes between man and beast, and spicy tales of sadistic frauleins and tropical white queens hungry for companionship ... topped off with salacious exposés of then-shocking subjects like free love, the Beat Generation, homosexuality, LSD and the secret horniness hidden in calypso lyrics. Josh Alan Friedman (Black Cracker) and Wyatt Doyle (Stop Requested) join collector and historian Robert Deis of MensPulpMags.com for a guided safari through a jaw-dropping collection of classic men's adventure magazine stories in the first anthology from the genre ever published. Packed with pulp fiction created by writers who later went on to greater fame, sensational illustrations by masters of men's pulp art and wacky ads taken from the magazines' back pages, Weasels Ripped My Flesh! is your passport to a gonzo world where every dame was a femme fatale or a scantily-clad damsel in distress and manly men fought small mammals bare-handed.

"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 ActionScores of great authors wrote for men's adventure pulps - Elmore Leonard, Jim Thompson, Richard Matheson, Lawrence Block and Harlan Ellison, to name a few. But the one 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 men's adventure magazines notorious - then and now.Robert Deis of MensPulpMags.com and Wyatt Doyle (Stop Requested), editors of the acclaimed Weasels Ripped My Flesh! anthology, rescue a whopping 15 high-intensity Kaylin classics from pulp fiction purgatory, along with the jaw-dropping illustrations that accompanied 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 the pulps' 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!
