First Impressions of the Zine

When thinking about a 'zine', I see it as more of a conceptual idea than an actual set 'thing'. I feel a zine has so many variations and types its difficult to set a specific label on what is a zine and what isn't a zine. What I have come to establish, as the main objectives of a zine, is firstly they are a self published work that mainly comes in the form of a small booklet; it can contain any content from being educational to creative, covering any subject. Normally being quite artistic and bold, the zine is used as a method to pass on the creators thoughts or opinions.
