Haha, this makes me recall the 1994 Zine Scream in Los Angeles…Boing Boing was one of my favorites, along with Ben is Dead.

Criminey, I feel like I’m extolling the virtues of John Philip Sousa. Which isn’t a bad thing.

I thought I was being pretty original, using layout like that in ’84.

I remember how excited I was when I found out my zine had been reviewed favorably by both bOING bOING and Factsheet Five. Now I explain to people that zines were early, paper-based blogs.
