Chicago-based Zines

[ramsey everydaypants]

Do you consider your zine a Chicago-based zine? Whether you live here, have lived here while you made an issue, have a zine about Chicago, etc, I'm looking to compile a list of Chicago-based zines. The list may be used in promotion of the upcoming Chicago Zine Fest (maybe on the website, maybe just as part of a press-kit we're putting together for the venue to emphasize the importance of a Chicago Zine Fest, nothing more, nothing incriminating and the list will just be zines titles, not zine authors' names).

Help me compile a list! Submit your own zine title or help me think of others.

I guess I'd consider my (maga)zine Chicago-based, since I make it from my home in Chicago.
