Review by Jessica Bublitz
I think I missed the boat on this one. This odd collection includes your standards - zine and concert reviews, letters, and comics - but with a crude twist. The most entertaining was the reworked "Family Circus" and "Dennis the Menace" strips, which were the bulk of the issue. There were also some concert reviews for the Murder Junkies and Misfits. If you enjoy jokes about drugs, abuse, and aging punk rockers then maybe you'll want to check this out. Really you will probably only enjoy it if you have been a constant reader close to the author's life. I did note the surprisingly professional layout for the subject matter. It was word processed, easy to read, and contained bordered images. There may be hope for this and interested parties know if they will enjoy the crass humor.
