A submission request in an 1990 issue of GAZ:

The theme is heroic partnerships (not necessarily male, not necessarily with only two partners!) and any TV series, file, comic book etc which fits this will be considered for inclusion. No explicit adult rated material please, and no slash, as this zine is intended for a wide audience; otherwise no limits on the type of story wanted. Story length should be from 1-40 pages. Artists also needed to illustrate stories -I know you've got plenty there in the USA, so please contact me for more details if you'd like to help with this. You must be able to work in black ink on white paper, that's al! my copier will handle well. Material accepted so far: A PROs story, an ARTHUR OF THE BRITONS story and possibly a MY PARTNER THE GHOST comic strip story.
