The UK edition of Maxim is closing its print edition and moving online from next month. The US edition will replace the UK edition at retail. The Guardian reports that Lad’s mags like Maxim are doing it tough in the UK:
Lads’ magazines are suffering heavy declines across the board. IPC’s Nuts fell 13.3% year on year to an average weekly circulation of 234,034 in the six months to December 2008; while weekly rival Zoo, from Bauer Media, fell 18.7% year on year to 145,555.
