Fourth Panel Estate #1: The Future's Bright [03 Jul 2008|03:30pm]

Written By: Will Davies

This is the Fourth Panel Estate, a column about web comics. Good web comics. Solely because I don’t have the vocal agility to rag on sub par junk. Also I lack a fetching hat and you can’t rag without the proper attire. I do however have galoshes which are the leg wear of choice for in depth review and bothering legitimate artists with inane and often pointless questions. I’ll be doing this weekly from now until one of two things happens. Either the column will bomb and Septagon will beat me up and leave me in a ditch or it’ll go really well, I’ll end up going too far and the secret web comic illuminati (read Dayfree Press) will come for me in the night with bolt cutters.

Suggestions [03 Jul 2008|08:31am]

zine_scene

[nevermindjosh]
This fall I'm doing an independent study on zines and independent publishing in America. It's for our American Studies program at the University of Alabama. I have a pretty good idea of the specific zines I want to use as a reference, but I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on books or zines written specifically on the history of zines or independent publishing. Any suggestions of any sort of relevance are welcome.

Zine Feedback [02 Jul 2008|11:41am]

zine_scene

[xeroxheart]
I was just wondering about how often I love a zine and do not tell the zinester how rad there zine was and how much I REALLY enjoyed it. I have decided to make it a goal to write a letter (or email at least) letting each writer know I read their zine and why I enjoyed it.

It makes me wonder how often people really reach out to each other and communicate how we feel about the art that effects us one way or the other.

Do you always tell someone how awesome there zine was or do you think it in your head and keep it to yourself?

I am curious to hear about peoples feedback habits I guess =)

Grab bags [01 Jul 2008|01:23pm]

zine_scene

[otakuastra]
EDIT: All the grab bags are taken! Thanks everyone!

I'm moving soon and am getting rid of all but my very favorite zines, which means that I now have 5 grab bags to give out! Each grab bag has 11 zines, and I think I still have about a million copies of issue #3 of my old zine Mermaid laying around still, so what the hell, 12 zines. Most of these are perzines filled with random thoughts, which are my favorite kind of zine. I have to admit that there are a few zines that I got in grab bags a long time ago that I haven't even read. There are also a few themed zines in the mix, so if you have any interest in...

-Francesca Lia Block
-fashion
-college life
-comix
-farming
-literary zines
-Darfur
-crazy public transit stories

...let me know and I'll hook you up. (If no one requests any of these specifically, they might find their way into any of the grab bags, fyi.)

Each bag will only cost postage... I'm not sure exactly what that will be, but it'll be less than $5 for sure. Email me your address at elsmith7@sfsu.edu and I'll send you a grab bag and let you know where to send the payment and how much. It'd be nice if you let me know the names of any zines you do, too... doubt it'll happen, but it would be both awkward and disappointing if I sent you your own zine, lol. Peace!

+ Went to Biff and Gak's formal housewarming party last night. Really fucking fun!
+ Jo's coming into town Wednesday at midnight.
+ Band practice Wednesday. That's pretty easy to get excited about.
+ Road trip with Curtis A. Guy beginning Thursday night.

- Quite possibly the worst day of work I've ever had in my 4.5 years of employment. But it'll be a good week so it's going to be okay.

I'm so lazy about pictures because it takes so friggin long to upload them and it's so fast to just print them out at work and put them in my album... but since I'm up and just hanging out in bed....




Housewarming party pictures! )

This is a little art zine i made, it's about 8 pages i think and it's all about the things people say (sometimes automatically) that doesn't always mean anything. Since it's so small i'm giving them out for free, (but if you want to send me something in return, like your own zine, that would be awesome! :D), just send me your address via email: exxtravagariaa@gmail.com

SuperGrrrl Adventure Comix Deadline Extended [30 Jun 2008|09:27am]

zine_scene

[rae_is]
After much discussion--and in response to the fact that we have received numerous queries but a grand total of two actual submissions--Jen and I have decided to extend the SuperGrrrl Adventure Comix #1 submissions deadline by two weeks, to July 14.

SuperGrrrl Adventure Comix is a multimedia second-gen riot grrrl-themed zine. We are looking forsubmissions of previously unpublished original fiction, nonfiction, poetry, black-and-white art, comic strips, interviews, articles, and reviews; from writers and artists of all ages, genders, and backgrounds.
We cannot pay contributors at this time, but we will happily give you contributor copies, random comic books, and our undying gratitude.
Please see below for guidelines (behind the cut), and feel free to forward this around or post it anywhere you'd consider appropriate.

Sincerely,
Rachel Edidin and Jen Vaughn, Editrices

Guidelines behind the cut. )
