In a time where publications scaling down or shutting off has become regular news, it is refreshing to see new magazines starting up. It is even better when the magazine offers a unique twist rather than follow another mag’s formula. HERO is the name of the new bi-annual magazine, and showcasing the emerging models who are just about to hit it big is their game. It is an intimate and fresh look at the faces who are on the verge of breaking out.
HERO’s launch issue has just been released with British model Robbie Wadge (recently seen in Dazed & Confused, Vogue Hommes Japan, AnOther Man, FHM Collections, Topman SS09 ads) landing the cover in a shoot by Matthew Kristall. Top agencies including Major Models, Re:Quest, Red, Models 1, Storm, Select, and VNY are represented through 28 models in this issue. The issue features exclusive interviews and photo shoots by Jeremy Kost, Sam Scott Schiavo, Stefan Heinrichs, Carlos Vazquez, Massimo Pamparana and Matthew Kristall.
HERO is created by London-based James West and Fabien Kruszelnicki and you can buy it at their site.
