ecco is a gen multifandom Science Fiction and Horror digest-sized anthology of articles and fiction. It was published by Randy Williams, from Liberty N.C, and included a mix of short fiction, poetry, information and reviews of other zines, and letters from subscribers. The third issue, and perhaps more, featured Star Trek: TOS content.
