Starting off with some very psychological quotes from two incredibly famous yet not often read novels, The Bell Jar and Steppenwolf, Miranda turns her focus and her intense clinical eye on herself, and expresses herself intensely with a number of different thoughts, all differentiated by pages.

First off, this zine is one of the most personal I’ve ever read. It really seems as if I and Megan, the editor, have a lot in common. The raw emotion that is held in these small paragraphs interspersed in the magazine are shining beacons to the problems she (and tons of other lovelorn people) are currently having. There is so much empty space in this zine, but that is…
Pulp Bizarro #1 / #1 / :30 / 36M / http://www.pulpbizarro.com / It looks, from a cursory glance at Pulp Bizarro’s web site, that there has been little updated since April of 2007.

I know that I have done shirts, and printed shirts, in the past.NeuFutur had a shirt out that was sharp blue, with a red print, that said about how Ohio was a Republican state. There are sites that offer Wholesale T-Shirt Printing for a good price, but these prices wildly vary depending on the color, style, and heaviness of the shirt that is used, along with the number of colors…
The Bleep Subway Comic / $1.50 / :05 / 17M / 2004 Blaire Miltenberger / janes_freak@yahoo.com / Another grab from Slacker in Pittsburgh; for a $1.50 comic, there are a lot of features (spiral-bound, full color). Anyways, The Bleep Subway Comic is a computer-generated comic about Bleep, a round figure that looks similar to Glop and Gleep, albeit with a Mohawk, red hoodie, and book bag. The style of art…

Planet Verge #6 / :25 / $1 / Full-Sized / 20 Pages / 15 Albert Terrace, Bloomfield, NJ 07003 / planet_vergemagazine@yahoo.com /Â Okay, Planet Verge is a zine that I can see getting better with every issue.

I know that a long time back, I used to play Vampire: The Masquerade. One of the clans in this RPG (role playing game) was the Brujah. The reason why this is relevant at all is that the title of Tim Madden’s new book – The Bruja’s Tale – is similar to that of the Brujah clan. Tim Madden’s Homepage provides individuals with an insight into the work, which deals…
