The long-awaited eighth edition of local gay magazine ‘Jack' is on its way, the publication's art director Julian Haldane assures GayNZ.com. Jack seventh issue was released in January with a launch party at Galatos, but no other issues have appeared since. Production on Jack #8 is continuing, but details of its content and publication date could not be revealed at present. “We're just slowing working away on the next issue and it'll be out when it's ready,” says Haldane. Previous issues of the magazine have been nominated by the Designers' Institute of New Zealand for its BEST Design Awards. “One of the trannies on the corner of K' Road and Edinburgh Street told me it's all go in the Jack Office,” the magazine's official website teases. “And those girls know their shit!” Ref: GayNZ.com (m)
