Trying to re-root myself in 90s punk rock resistance practices... Any zinesters out there who know of great online archives /resources/etc? Both for accessing digitized historic zines but also for connecting with what's new and now!

I’ve been thinking a lot about how zines seem like a better way to transmit info in the face of oligarch-owned social media, too. What’s the 2025 equivalent of a scammed Kinko’s card, though?
In case you're interested, here's the zine my grad students put together in 2023 and handed out at the Phoenix zine fest! I'll have to look around and see if vol 2 is up anywhere...
I also have my undergrad pop culture students make zines for their final projects. I have some delightful examples -- I'll try to bring a couple to ICFA =) My favorite is "Queer Muslims! Yes, we exist!"
Also, it's not an archive, but if you feel like doing a little purchasing, Wasted Ink Zine Distro in Phoenix has an online shop -- https://www.wizd-az.com/store.html
Oh no! That's so weird, they work for me! Boarding a flight so I'll see if I can grab you a pdf or something when I land. Or I can always bring you hard copies at ICFA :)
