Exhibition hall thE noisy REtuRn of Exhibition hall
[email protected] Yes, we’re back. And yes, that’s a wrestler on our cover. Becky Lynch is one of the most talent women on the WWE’s roster right now at a time that women’s wrestling is probably hotter than at any point in the last 50 years. Go figure. Her style of ring entrance attire is steampunk-inspired, and she’s Irish, so I must put her on the cover! So, what’s been going on since the last one of these is- sues? I’m married, had a couple of kids, JohnPaul and Benji, and have basically been livin’ life in the mountains of Boulder Creek, California. It’s been fun, it’s been exhausting, it’s been reality. I haven’t been able to read much, or watch too many movies, either. It’s hard when you have to work, take care of the kidlings, and drive an hour to and from work every day. It doesn’t leave a lot of time for zining, but I’m gonna manage. I hope to get three of these out this year, one of which will be a special Gail Carriger themed issue (and Debbie Bretschneider has a lovely piece in here about encountering Gail!) and per- haps another on Tim Powers, though that might have to wait a year. I’m also bringing back Claims Department, my other personal zine, with an issue on 1980s and 90s comics that’s already out, one about comics legend Julie Schwartz, and then a BIG issue about the Zodiac Killer that might make me go all Greysmith..
