ABOUT AERO ZERO & MEN PLUS MONSTERS

MEN PLUS MONSTERS

Some years ago, artist AERO ZERO lamented that there were no quality M/M erotica comics to read that were consensual and with the kind of stories and characters they wanted to read about. After having drawn super explicit comics about men for many years, AERO ZERO decided to rectify this.

In 2014, AERO ZERO put a name to two of their M/M erotica comics, MEN+MONSTERS and ACE OF BEASTS, and set out to print and bind them for the world to enjoy - and so, MEN PLUS MONSTERS was thrust into being!

ABOUT THE ARTIST

ARTIST & CREATOR

AERO ZERO

AERO ZERO is an ace non-binary BIPOC comic artist and professional colorist who has made many NSFW consensual M/M bara fantasy erotica comics and worked alongside industry professionals since 2012.

They were born in the 32-bit era and have been playing video games ever since. They have a BA in illustration from an art school where they learned traditional media; however their digital work methods are mostly self-taught.

Their oldest characters are Xerxes and Osric (the main characters of ACE OF BEASTS), both made in 2009 and still close to their original designs! Their first comic was KYRIA, published online in 2012. Aero's art has been featured in many professional comics, anthologies, and other works.

They currently draw/write ACE OF BEASTS and MEN+MONSTERS among many other comic projects, while running their comic sites MEN PLUS MONSTERS & BARA COMICS, as well as the MEN PLUS MONSTERS shop. Their comics and art have gained critical acclaim from thousands of readers around the globe.

ABOUT

MEN PLUS MONSTERS

MEN PLUS MONSTERS is a collection of all comics, art, and creations by AERO ZERO, combining storytelling, fantasy, and erotica into beautiful art that celebrates love above all else.

The MEN PLUS MONSTERS SHOP has been online since 2015, and is the only place to get AERO ZERO's lovingly drawn bara erotica comics.

AERO ZERO's comics feature asexual, pansexual, POC characters and more, highly original designs and worlds, as well as witty writing with quite a bit of humor. They are fun, explicit, consensual, beautiful, M/M erotica comics featuring men and monsters rendered in handsomely colorful detailed art, with expansive world-building beyond the bedroom.

COMIC & COMPANY FACTS

The MEN PLUS MONSTERS Shop started when AERO ZERO took pre-orders for MEN+MONSTERS Volume 1 in October, 2015.
MEN PLUS MONSTERS is located in California, and MEN PLUS MONSTERS books have all been printed by professional artisans in the USA.
The MEN PLUS MONSTERS team is just the artist and creator of MM: Aero Zero, a California-based colorist and comic artist who is committed to creating and printing the highest quality man-on-monster erotica stories.
Name spelling and pronunciation: The collection and shop are called MEN PLUS MONSTERS, the comic title is MEN+MONSTERS, and both are pronounced ‘men plus monsters’ - NOT ‘men and monsters’, or anything like that.

Thanks to a very successful Kickstarter campaign that Aero organized, MEN PLUS MONSTERS Volume 2 comics plus the ACE OF BEASTS prequel KNIGHT OF ALANOC are able to be sent to print! At a final total of $7066 with 106 backers, the stretch goal was met to re-print MEN+MONSTERS Volume 1 in a new, special gold foil edition.

The MEN PLUS MONSTERS shop has sold over 200 copies of MEN PLUS MONSTERS books, with many more projected sales with the release of the Volume 2 books!

In addition, several other pieces of MEN PLUS MONSTERS merch such as charms, totes, notebooks and more have made an appearance and sold out at conventions (Leamington Comic Con, Confuzzled, KitaCon)! MEN PLUS MONSTERS may appear at future conventions with books and exclusive merchandise, at a later date to be announced on MENPLUSMONSTERS.com.

Finally, all of this was done by AERO ZERO, whose hard work and determination led to MEN PLUS MONSTERS becoming a successful online brand for their unique consensual bara and monster erotica comics.
