FAQ
“What is a zine?”
A zine (short for magazine or fanzine) is a self-published collection of artwork, graphics, and written work centered on a specific theme. Zines can come in print, digital, or both formats depending on the project.“What is a vtuber?”
Good question! A “VTuber'' or “Virtual Youtuber” is an online entertainer with a virtual avatar that uses various kinds of technology to interact with an audience. Often, many vtubers use motion capture software to capture movement, however there are a wide range of vtubers! While the full term originated from “Virtual Youtuber”, in general vtubers are online entertainers who create live streaming content on multiple platforms. There’s definitely more to discover about the world of vtubing!“Is this a for-profit or non-profit zine?”
This is a free non-profit zine.“Is this a digital zine, physical zine, or both?”
As of now, this zine is digital-only.“Are you still accepting contributors?”
Thank you for the interest, but we are currently not accepting any contributors. All contributors have been selected at this time.“Will you host future zine projects?”

Han
role: Co-Head, Art, Graphics, Layoutintro: 안녕! My name is Han and I’m just a silly little guy! Even though I’m a fairly new and inexperienced PNGtuber, I have my fair share of zine experiences. I was co-head, art mod, graphics mod and layout mod for a Pokemon zine, and I’ve contributed to at least four published zines as an artist. I may not have much of a fashion sense, but I’m super excited to work on this new and stylish project with very talented people!socials: twitter , twitch , icon credit
Beani
role: Co-Head, Graphics, Layoutintro: Hi friends! I’m Beani, explorer of the galaxy and resident Chicky enthusiast! Graphic design is my passion and I’m excited to be a co-head on this zine. While my only previous zine experiences involve my own self-designed capstone photography zine, I create stream assets and overlays for many streamers and vtubers in the community! I’m very excited to be working alongside so many wonderful artists and stylists~socials: twitter , twitch , icon credit

While I may not have any previous experience working on a zine, I do have a background in narrative design and illustrative work. I am admittedly also kind of new to the world of vtubers, having been dragged into this world through my friends here and have loved every moment of it since. I’m super pumped to not only work alongside my fellow clowns, but to work with the other talented artists and lovely vtubers who are going to be a part of this zine!socials: twitter , twitch
