apologies if this has been made b4 (lmk and i’ll delete) but i was hoping we could get a thread going to discuss regular publications we like to get in the mail or at a shop. im finally getting around to reading my copy of demystification #2 and between that and bubbles #12 i’ve been thinking a lot lately about how much i’ve read mags throughout my life and would like to get even more. currently i pick up: bubbles, hypepup, apartamento, demystification, possessed, 2x2 periodical (local nyc 1 sheet zine)… think that’s all. i hope that hotline tnt basketball zine starts up again. when i was a kid i lived on a diet of mad mag, thrasher, juxtapoz, nintendo power, and whatever graffiti stuff i could find in WI, the infamous was an incredible 2010s graf mag. anyways lmk what u guys read and dig! or mags that u collect or zines u wish were still running

damn that's more than i knew about, i'm excited to peep some of these others! i'm subscribed to hypepup and always grab bubbles.
i've wanted to print one-sheets and slip them into the free neighborhood paper boxes around manhattan for years now, maybe it's time to get that rolling, could also be a mail thing i guess.

Got a pretty serious run of Graphic Story Magazine/Graphic Story World/Wonderworld.. I've also long fetishized those Amazing World of DC Comics prozines but they're too pricey for my blood.

just subscribed to life Harvester, thanks! And great news re: association update. i grabbed those dc / va graf zines u reprinted some months ago, was revisiting them yesterday. they’re so great, hope to see more of ppl reprinting / selling at cost of old fanzines. i need to get plugged back into graf zine scene.. there was a great one called FLUX some years ago. Also I highly recommend the collected FIFTH GOAL 1998-2003 TRANSCENDENTAL GRAF ZINE, a SLC zine about train graf and veganism and eastern religion and hardcore reviews. its really amazing. the bookstore Aeon in Manhattan LES bought a bunch of stock and usually has copies. Lots of gold listed, some of my favs. You might also like Life Harvester: www.colinhagendorf.com/newsletter another one sheet zine that comes in the mail.

huh it wasn’t called FLUX it was something else. it was reviewed i think in a thrasher “Zine Thing” section and had a interview with Buzz Blurr AKA Bozo Texino AKA Road of Colossus. i’ll see if i can find my copy. in the fifth element zine i mentioned above, he also interviews the same artist. he’s a link to that interview (which is in the compiled print edition): www.northbankfred.com/blurr2.html |

Dang Fifth Goal book looks awesome, wish I cloud track one down. Do you read any of the Shining Life collections? shininglife.bigcartel.com/ I love the In Effect and Hardware collections. I would love to see more stuff like this come out. I have a friend who's going to reprint Gore Gazette sometime next year, stoked for that. |

oh man these look awesome, hadn’t seen this before. definitely grabbing the contention anthology and the toy machine fanzines. I don’t rly listen to hardcore actively but have been meaning to.. i can play whatever i want in the shop, when i’m back i’ll listen to more and then maybe commit to the In Effect anthology. been meaning to check out the bands you’ve listed in oh me, esp that rapper. my mom has always worked in bookstores, she owns one in WI now, and when i was like 12 she gave me this collected edition of a nyc punk zine whose name i cant remember. definitely have been drawn towards hc/punk zines since then. i’ll see if i can track down a copy of the fifth goal book for you, i’ve been able to get a copy for myself and a friend previously so it’s not unlikely. its one of my favorite books. what’s gore gazette?

i just received my first copy of this newsletter in themail, had heard of it from john porcellino’s patreon, it may be of interest to others:
"Hello friends and fellow travelers,
2022 marks the 100th birthday of Jack Kerouac, and two of his biggest fans—my friend, Peter, and myself—have decided to embark on an epic literary hitchhike: reading Kerouac's Duluoz Legend in its entirety.
Pray, what's this Duluoz Legend, you ask?
Kerouac intended his entire body of work (the novels, really) to be rearranged and read in chronological order, a sort-of narrative be-bop jazz session of his life, his obsessions and observations, a spontaneous, though at times very thought out and calculated, series of books. "t will cover all the years of my life, like Proust, but done on the run, a Running Proust." The list of 13, really 14, titles is below.
We're going to read the whole damn thing and put together a monthly newsletter (on paper) of observations, ideas, maybe drawings and photos, complaints, utterances and dreams, even maybe a recipe or a map. You mail us stamps and we'll mail these back to you. Maybe we'll start an Instagram account or something (but nada to the Facebook or Twitter machines). I am planning on commemorative buttons, perhaps to indicate each book completed. There will be other events, tidbits, trinkets or communiques as the year progresses. We'd love for you to join us.
Consider this similar to Peter and I hitchhiking across the United States, and we asked you along. What that means is that you're invited to join us at the start, backpacks full and thumbing before dawn outside a truck stop; or, perhaps join us somewhere in the middle of America, in the summer, in the afternoon on a gorgeous day; or hop in at the end in anticipation of a riotous celebration. Maybe you want to take a train. Kerouac did all that.
Perhaps the showier parts of Duluoz interest you more and that's where you want to join us: On the Road (original or scroll), The Dharma Bums, or maybe you stomached the shit 1960 Hollywood beatnik movie The Subterraneans (with George Peppard, which means he was in the A-Team and played both Truman Capote and Kerouac) and want to yak about one of those. By all means, hike along with us there. But if you have goals to traverse his whole life, from childhood to disillusionment, book after book, please do!
Trust me, it will be easier than reading Proust.
Maybe you hate this project and just the thought of it makes you want to send us a nasty drawing every month of you puking, spitting or dumping on Kerouac. I'd still print that in the newsletter. In fact, I'd love that, too.
Like any book club, the point of this is for us to get together, in words on paper or in emails, together, sharing ideas. But we are getting close to launching the first edition of the newsletter in January, so let us know if you want to start NOW. We are. Starting now, that is. And we hope you'll join us because we miss you and think this'll be fun.
Your friends,
Peter 'n' Mike
