Love affair with the photocopier. Making mid-session chapbooks.

This is why the whole sex-on-the-copier-myth is bullshit. It’s uncomfortable and also, if you’re there you’d probably have to use the thing. And then you wouldn’t want to do stuff that might make the copier upset — a broken photocopier is worse to fix than a feuding family at a last will and testament reading.

But most important: making fanzines and chapbooks in a room engulfed with the smell of paper? That beats uncomfortable sex with paper jam triggered by the wrong things (ouch!). I mean: sheesh, there has to be at least tens of rooms more suitable within running distance. Leave the poor copier alone and let it churn the pages. (Words on paper is awesome.)

I couldn’t find any good images of Demo 2.03 on the internet beside the cover, but damn. Damn, damn, damn. Volume One Love Story is a fantastic issue. It’s almost to cute, but only almost because it’s never sickeningly sweet. I admit that the storytelling is one of those that feels custom-made just for me as the love story of Marlo is told through post-its. Post-its! Lots of them.

(Brian Wood and Becky Cloonan are amazing. I wish this run was more than six issues.)
