The Price! Of Zines! Is TOO DAMN HIGH!
Spurred by my encounter with a $20 zine at a Milwaukee bookshop, "The Price of Zines is Too Damn High" is my antagonization of boutique zinester culture. It argues in favor or a return to the roots of zines as a noncommercial means of expression and communication for marginalized communities and crews.
(It's also the first time I've collaged and hand-written a #zine for quite a while... it was fun! and it has lotsa #cats too)
