HEROZINE

Alex and Rosie started Herozine, a mostly hand-written mini-zine which will apparently grow when contributors send stuff in. They cover Dweeb, Barbie versus Sindy, Simone Angel, Sweets and all sortsa girlie antics in a fresh and fun style with coloured pens, glitter and gold stars adding to the mayhem. Herozine is truly a direct line to the kids if ever there was one.
Issue 2 has an Ash / Kenickie blind date and interviews with SexLoveBusterbaby, Tampasm, Boyzone, East 17 and even themselves! Lots of lovingly scribbled graffiti such as I Hate School, doodles galore and five-word record reviews combine to make Herozine a product of either pure, sweet innocence or calculated genius! Closely in league with them is Pop! Year Zero (they had a joint awards ceremony earlier this year!).
