Men in Suits, our debut toyhaus studio publication, is a zine celebrating the special effects monsters who inspire us, the movies they star in, and the costume designers and actors who bring them to life.

Inspired by everything from Godzilla and kaiju to the classic Universal Monsters of horror, Men in Suits Vol. 1 was produced over the summer of 2023 and features 24 full-color pages of illustrations with a lineup of 19 artists from around the world.

We handled everything in-haus – from art direction to layout, typography, and prepress – channeling our love of cult monster cinema into something tangible and collectible.
