''fab'' was a Canadian magazine which targeted the gay community, publishing biweekly issues in Toronto, Ontario from 1994 to 2013. It published alternate weeks to the city's other biweekly gay publication, ''Xtra!''. The publication’s official spelling uses a lower-case F: ''fab''. ==History== ''fab'' was established in June 1994 by No Fear Publishing,〔("RIP Fab Magazine (1994-2013)" ). ''NOW'', March 12, 2013.〕 originally as a publication focusing primarily on the city's gay party and club scene.〔 In 1996, ''fab'' also launched a national edition, known as ''FAB National'' to distinguish itself from the local Toronto publication. The national magazine struggled to build an audience, and was sold in 1998; its new owners ceased publication of the magazine within a few months. In 2006, under managing editor Steven Bereznai, ''FabStyle'' — a special issue devoted to fashion and design — was launched as a quarterly publication. However, only two issues were ever produced. In February 2008, Pink Triangle Press, publishers of ''Xtra!'', ''Xtra! West'' and ''Capital Xtra!'', purchased the assets of ''fab''. The magazine began publishing under the PTP banner in March 2008.〔 Due to downsizing efforts, Pink Triangle Press announced the magazine's discontinuation on March 12, 2013;〔 the magazine's April 24, 2013 issue was its last.〔("Fab magazine to close, gays across GTA dress in black" ). ''fab'', March 12, 2013.〕 Its past web content and many of its contributors are expected to be integrated into DailyXtra.com, an expansion of ''Xtra!s online presence which is slated to debut later in the year.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fab (magazine)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
