(Discovered via the Slog, where the commenters, shockingly, disagree. The discussion has produced this gem: "I do love me some Ong Ong, and there's one of those coming up real soon, I hear. I love how Lucy, the editor, refers to it as a 'fanzine.' It's so retro it's brand-new.")
(Mind you, this whole discussion is about zines and not fanzines. The title for the Slog post is "The Zine: 1970ish-2008". The first fanzine appeared in 1930, or so I'm told.)
