A zine ed is an editor of a zine.
It is usually used for the person who selects the content, and sometimes edits it, as well as writing introductory material such as the table of contents and editorial. The editor might be the same person as the publisher (who prints the zine, and usually distributes it), or they might be different people.
The editor of the Star Wars zine Twin Suns laments in a letter to Jundland Wastes #3: "Being an editor means always having to say you're sorry."
