How To Make A Zine

Post author By DJ Sharkbite
Post date November 27, 2025

If you opened this article and you are wondering what a zine is, keep reading. This article goes in depth talking about the origins of zines in the punk scene and is a great primer on zine culture. For anyone who does not have another article in them, I will give a quick rundown. “Zine” comes from a shortened form of magazine, which is a decent explanation for what they are. Zines are small, mini magazines that anyone can make. They are made with no production studio or backing and generally are made with extremely simple materials like folded paper.

Guilty Pleasures

A couple of drinks. Image by Sophia Dutton-Rodkin

When it comes to anything in life, we tend to have our patterns. Whether it is our favorite foods, movies, activities or music, no matter how broad our tastes, there are patterns. That being said, we often have things we enjoy that are outside of our usual patterns. At times, there are things we enjoy for which we might be ashamed.

Some examples of this might be horror movie fans being into wholesome Disney films, science fiction fans liking chick flicks, quiet and calm people loving adrenaline inducing activities and so on.
