POSSUM GARAGE PRESS #5

POSSUM GARAGE PRESS #5
16 Pages, Quarter Size (pocket size?) $2 trades

It’s a poetry zine, sort of, and it’s a political zine, sort of, and I don’t quite get the possum thing, but it’s cool and handwritten and smart, and cute. “We welcome submissions, Possum or human, by U.S. Mail with SASE” and there are lots of interesting drawings (possum and otherwise), though you’ll of course want to have a look before you submit anything. As a side note, as a former Delaware resident myself, I had to laugh at the inclusion of an ad for the Delaware Air National Guard— yes, you guessed it, D.A.N.G. “Dang!” they write, “Dang it all!” in taking the military and GWB to task.…and the comics:
