Beyond the Wire is a gen and non-explicit slash Star Trek: DS9 anthology of fiction focusing on Bashir and Garak.

The fifth issue was published in 2001, and at that time, the editors felt they needed to define what a fanzine was, as much of their audience was apparently unfamiliar with the term:

New Deep Space Nine Adventures! Do you like to have something printed on paper that you can take anywhere, read whenever you want to, as often as you want to? Do you enjoy stories written by fans, illustrated by fans? I do -- but with the rising popularity of the Internet, fanzines seem to be in short supply these days. But search no more!... Proceeds go to charity.[1]

Issue 1

Beyond the Wire 1 was published in October 1998 and contains 150 pages.

It has 11 stories and contains some slash. Cover art is by Gabi Stiene; interior art is by Janet D'Airo, Alison Binnall, Jackie Curry, Emma Dutch, Jennifer Herd, Valerie Herd, Kate StarChild Larsen, Nancy Lee, Donna McCabe, Deborah Roper, and Rebecca Wise.

The author of 'First Consideration" wrote: "I wrote First Consideration in 1998, for a fanzine entitled "Beyond the Wire, Vol. 1". It was published by the Doctor's Exchange (the official Siddig El Fadil/Alexander Siddig fan club) and the Official Andy Robinson Fan Club and edited by Gayle Stever and Terry Rillera. I had to wait a year to post it, but that year is up, and now so is the story. It won second place in the Best DS9 General Story (formerly Best DS9 Story) category on Alt.StarTrek.Creative's 1999 Awards and it was recently voted Story of the Month for June 2001 by The Darkness Within."
