but maybe I'm wrong, I don't know..

I thought it looked weird too so just wrote exactly what it said on the cover. 64 issues looks an awful lot for an old stapled zine...

Suck City is a DOPE read. Those guys were hilarious. Same kinda humor the dudes from Chromium Dioxide are employing but they were in the thick of it. I'd love to check out "Nasal Pain" they talk about in SC12, Vern from Mace's zine.

I've read a couple issues of Subway (shit, I think that's the name of it... NW HM zine from the mid-late 80's.. Same dude put out Metal Meltdown #1) that also has Vern's art in it. He rules. Did an ongoing comic for them called MACE COMIX. Really cool/freaky shit... maybe kinda Dada in execution but fun to read nonetheless.

Yep, Suck City was an awesome read. I'd really like to get scans of more issues if anyone comes across them. That crazy humor is something I miss a lot in zines today.

More eurozines coming up later this week btw...

I guess some of you already know the excellent FRANCE METAL MUSEUM website. Of course it is mainly in french, but some zines posted there are also in english:

thought I would scan this for historical sake, not the best 'zine at all.

OK, 10 more zines are now added to the archive, including Rob's latest contributions. Look into the Crystal Ball for details, including more compilations of course

Those "Metal Madness" zines look fairly promising.

I'll have to give them a download.

Thanks.
