THE COVER
We collaborated with October Joe, Seattle based artist, to showcase a four-hand massage and ‘The Milker’ pose. His earthy and warm sensuality resonated with us. We found him for Zine #2 and fell in love. Joe has since joined our telegram community and generously agreed to craft the cover for us. Orange hues are used to represent the earth element (rootedness, and connection) and the sacral chakra (creativity and pleasure).
Thank you for the immense support, brother.

CENTREFOLD
A homage to the intimate ‘Tug Rug’ experience at the Bator Bro Parties. Started off as open photo submissions for BatorSutra poses. Regrettably, it was an astounding flop. So we invited some bros that regularly attend our parties for a photoshoot. Our bros started bonding immediately, 90 minutes, 5 cum shots, and 150 photos later, interwoven into a collage.
Can you spot the following BatorSutra poses in the collage? The Straddle, The Circle, The Leg Wrap, The Surrender, The Side Cradle
