Yuck! #2: Gross-out horror comix – you pays your money, you know what to expect. Actually, some of the artwork is quite nice, especially Jacek Zabawa’s pussy-licious cover. Talented Aussie artist Ben Hutchings also makes a worthy appearance. Milk Shadow Books, PO Box 651, Northcote, Vic, 3070, AUSTRALIA, www.milkshadowbooks.com[AUD$4.50 + contact the site for overseas p&h, 40S, 0:20] – Dann Lennard
Chicks With Horses #1: What…no bestiality? Sadly, this zine is exactly what it says on the cover, page after page of photos of girls with horses. Most of them appear to be tearsheets of chicks at the races. The overall effect is still unsettling. You’re left with a strong sense of “Why?” David Puckeridge, PO Box 872, Katoomba, NSW, 2780, AUSTRALIA, [AUD$1/probably $3 overseas, 32S, :05] – Dann Lennard
Geneva 13 #15: Possibly the most narrowly themed zine I’ve ever read. Unless you live in Geneva, NY this publication will mean little to you. Having said, this pizza-themed issue was interesting in parts. No-one makes pizza like New Yorkers, that’s for sure. Still, I can’t really see why anyone outside Geneva would want to read this zine as a rule.

Operations Manual Vol. IX: Bizarreness on a grand scale. Eclectic subject matter includes the mystical power of the number nine, trepanation, how to use your hand as a thermometer, a detailed study on the phrase “a friend in need is a friend indeed”, healthy flea remedies…hell, this doesn’t even scratch the surface. One of the best zines I’ve read this year. GodBlessGenerica@gmail.com [email for prices, 40S, 0:30] – Dann Lennard
nnnnnnnnnnYES! #1.1: This zine makes me mad – mad with rage that someone (probably via a government grant) wasted a lot of coin producing a high-quality zine full of pretentious shit. Bad poetry, bad fiction, bad collage “art”. Just bad. Given the financial resources the people behind this publication had, I could’ve produced a zine 100 times more interesting than this overpriced crap. I’m pissed off now. nnnnPatrick, RM301, 984-5, Yeogtong 2 Dong, Suwon, Gyeong-Gi, 443-813, SOUTH KOREA, nnnnnnnnnnyes@gmail.com [US$11 to everywhere except Mexico…where it’s US$13/trade, FTP, age statement required, 0:10] – Dann Lennard
