Reactions and Reviews
Someone mentioned the Servalan story by Emma Abraham-- here it is. IMO it's the standout story of the zine.This zine has terrific art, as you'd expect since one editor is an artist. I especially like the portfolio of Servalan's men in #1.
There was also a smut zine from the same group, Forbidden Zone. [1]
