Do you know what I’m really into right now? OSR fanzines. I’ve been checking out a bunch of them in PDF, but I would love to have a few physical copies, too. There is an RPG Zine community, which is helpful for finding sellers, but it seems the best place to get your hands on them is at a Con.
Are fanzines on anyone else’s radar right now?
where do you score the PDFs, and which ones do you recommend
~a guy for whom Zines are on no radar.

Scott Slater The ones I’m enjoying right now are Crawl! and Oubliette, which can be found on DriveThru in PDF. Crawl is for DCC, so it’s pretty light-hearted, adventurey stuff. Oubliette is for Labyrinth Lord. I’m going to check out The Undercroft to see how that one is. There are some others, though, like The Manor, which I can’t find in PDF, but that I really want to check out.

Also, this is the Community I’ve been scrounging around to learn about some of these: https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/101270752323854044371

I love the look/feel of zines. Underground, scrappy publishing is unadulterated awesome.

I just helped edit a mega-zine for DCC called the Gongfarmer’s Almanac. It’s available here for downloading:

I hope so, I always think Gorgon Milk is pretty good.
So, when is the DIY RPG community gonna reach “Riot Grrl” level? Are we there? Are we heading for “Punk” next?
