Hi, you may know me from film and TV....well no, it would be comics....and
you probably don't, but that's what i do, comics, but i have also been
publishing small zines for fun most of my life.
When I was 10 i published my first zine, It was called GLOBOHOBO. I was
spending my summer days banging around an Animation studio housed in an old
fish-packing plant that my mother was working at, and being a precocious and
cute child, or so i was told, i got away with murder, or at least a lot of
free photocopies. The first headline was 'Mr T Drag Queen?', i cut and
pasted a compromising photo together of BA's head on the body of a chorus
girls body.
Off and on over the years i have published a number of zines, mostly the old
fashion way, late nights at kinko's or some office i worked at. But for some
time i have been wanting to start a web zine.
Well not being one to just talk and never do, i have.
I'd like to invite one and all to have a look see at...
