A kitchen sink Florida zine.

SIC BOI
#1, photocopied, 5 ½” x 8 ½”, 12 pgs.

The majority of the zine is an action-packed story about a fistfight with a cellmate, and how that leads into a shitstorm of violence and neglect at the hands of the prison guards.

The illustrator who does this zine took an old high school yearbook and drew a bunch of the photos in it.

Kids writing zines about their local scenes should take note, because these guys are doing it right.

Anarchist zine with some columns on labor and sweatshops.

|
PRISON FOCUS

This publication from California Prison Focus (a mainstay in the anti-prison movement) is an awe-inspiring, informative collection of news stories regarding prison issues.

Music zine focused on garage rock covering The Mans, The Gruesomes, The Mechanics of Romance, and some fests that feature such bands.

One hundred percent of that thirty-three percent is complete shit.

MY PERSONAL CONFLICTS WITH EVIL
$?, 5 ½” x 8 ½”, copied, 6 pgs. + 2 inserts.
By Guest Contributor
not wholly without merit, but I didn’t find it very accessible.
|
|
MOUNTZA
#3, €5, 8 ½” x 10 ½”, offset, two-color cover, 100 pgs.
By Matt Average
I feel like the winner of some multi-million dollar lottery when I get a copy of Mountza for review.
|
|
MISHAP
#24, $2 or trade or free, 5 ½” x 8 ½”, copied, 36 pgs.
By Guest Contributor
Mishap is a well-rounded zine: a few insightful personal essays, some lists, book and zine reviews, and a tiny bit of fiction.
|
|
MENTALLY ILL
#1, $1, 8 ½” x 5”, copied, 8 pgs.
By Guest Contributor
Mentally Ill is a zine put together by a dude who, to put it lightly, has been dumped on one too many times.
|
|
MAYFLIES & SLIDE GUITARS
$5, 8½” x 11”, printed, 36 pgs.
By Guest Contributor
Excellent comic art, somewhere between Jim Mahfood and Terry Moore, waterlogged by really bad poetry and jagged dream stories.
|
|
MAXIMUMROCKNROLL
#301, $4, 8 ½” x 10 ¾”, newsprint, 140 pgs
By Will Kwiatkowski
Mykel Board talking about fecal matter (again)
|
|
MAXIMUM ROCKNROLL
#304, $4, 8 ½” x 12”, newsprint, 150 pgs.

However, the real reason to get this was the interview with Raymond Pettibon, which was really good!
|
|
MASS MOVEMENT
#22, $?, 11” x 8 ½”, glossy, 98 pgs.

Also, I respect any zine that puts in the time to review over three pages of books.
|
|
JESUS CHRIST SUPER ZINE!
#1 $2, 5 ½” x 8 ½”, photocopied, 40 pgs.
By Craven
As an ex-Christian, it’s clear that she has strong opinions on the subject matter, but she ends the stories without forcing her opinions on anybody; instead letting the stories stand on their own.
|
|
GO METRIC
#22, 8 ½” x 12”, newsprint, 77 pgs.
By Craven
Even the stuff that I didn’t like, I liked.
|

GO METRIC
#22, $4, 8 ½” x 11”, offset, 84 pgs.
By Matt Average
This reminds me of Razorcake. Rock and punk are at the heart, but there’s something more going on.
|
|
GLUEWAVE
#1, $?, 5½” x 8½”, printed, 24pgs
By Guest Contributor
Other than half this issue being coverage of or ads for some band called Blank Dogs, this is a totally random fanzine with bad show reviews and crappy pictures.
|
|
FISH WITH LEGS
#12, $2, 5 ½” x 8 ½”, photocopied, 36 pgs.
By Craven
FWL remains somewhere in my top five of current zines going, and my favorite of the funny zine genre.
|
|
FEEDBACK
5 ½” x 7”, photocopied, 16 pgs
By Craven
Yes, all it takes to make show reviews interesting is some illustrations and the text being cut down enough to fit in four panels.
|
|
FAKE LIFE
#8, $2 or trade, 8 ½” x 7”, photocopied
By The Lord Kveldulfr
Standard punk zine fare for the most part, but in this, the first anniversary issue, the topical focus is almost entirely on poop and pooping in an effort “to do something special” for the reader.
