The magazine continued until 1990, documenting the 20th century underground physical beauty movement, featuring "flexing muscle men both in costume and out, set among lavish landscapes or simply grinning for the camera in Mizer's studio," along with their bios and contact information. Over the years the magazine inspired artists as diverse as David Hockney and Robert Mapplethorpe, not to mention countless gay men world-wide.
