A Zine Collection - International Zine Month 2025

Zine making was new to me in May. In July, International Zine Month hit. I created a dozen for a jam. Then kept going.

In this collection of 21 fresh zines, you will find a myriad of different media used for a bouquet of ideas. From art zines to cutesy nicknames, political rants to adorable pests, and illustrated cinema tropes to walkabout results, you'll find something for every mood. Each zine is also available as a single item, some are even free and bundled here for completeness.
