28 Chapters is Christoph's first zine in 2 years! In it he apologizes for being delinquent to his PO Box, and vows to start clean. He also decides that at 33, he should fulfill a dream of his--to hike the Appalachian Trial! But wait, this zine contains a bonus mini-zine written during his practice hikes! It's called "Defeated by Maryland," and is a wild food-poisoning/hiking adventure. It's 1/4 size and is 14 pages.

A longingly hand done personal zine by a father and philosopher. The title sort of tells it all except what to expect as far as the content. Various issues talk about funny experiences with his son, going to a Buddhist retreat, writing funny letters to companies, comics, and the uniqueness of the small town where he lives.

A carefully and humorous hand done personal zine by a father, philosopher, and buddhist. This issue contains more funny anecdotes about finding $20 in a Rush Limbaugh book, going shopping for a hybrid car, a letter to a company that makes "vegan veal", a story about his son trying to collect dust, a long psuedo fiction story about being in line at the supermarket, putting new wiper blades on the car, and a gocco print adorn this little gem. There's a few nice illustrations by Larned Justin and Jerry Smith portraying Christoph and relating to stories.

A carefully and humorous hand done personal zine by a father, philosopher, and buddhist. This issue is the alphabet issue collected in a series of funny anecdotes relating to each letter of the alpahabet: $4.15 found in a payphone, a funny message on his machine, a tribute to James Brown, a gocco print, some jokes, ostracism, patriotism, Vanilla Ice, and more! Always entertaining and you never know exactly what you are going to get.

A carefully crafted and humorous hand done personal zine by a father, philosopher, and buddhist. This is probably the most exciting issue ever. It's blown up to a larger format with the "trim" piece from the printing, being a separate zine telling stories from his partner's work day, and an Amish man falling dead in the checkout line at Kroger. The primary document here talks about pissing out a fire they had, the joys and intracacies of their new hybird car, the similarity of the Cleveland police emblem to a pig, a bit about the difference between love and marriage, and Herbie's (their son) love for trains.

This was by far my favorite personal zine that I've received in a long time. The title sort of tells it all except what to expect as far as the content. This is far better than the first issue and I’d attribute that to the fact that Christopher asks for reader feedback and takes it to heart as well as reading dozens of other zines. Most of this issue is consumed by his stories of using a midwife instead of a hospital, having a son, and related material. Maybe it's just my starved interest for babies but I thought I couldn’t put this zine down. There is also a letter that he wrote to Zen Don soymilk, his editing job of their poorly written reply letter, and winning his first running race. There are a few pages of in depth zine reviews as well and a spiel for the upcoming feature of “ask the dentist” (his wife being the dentist).

A new favorite personal zine that really stands out. The title sort of tells it all except what to expect as far as the content. Christoph is a father and a thinking philosopher. Much of this issue talks about his beliefs as a buddhist and a meditation retreat that he went to. He gives every detail of the weekend and his thoughts each step of the way. It also has a funny letter that he wrote to Deer Park water and some information reprinted about Cullen Carter's (Secret Life of Snakes zine) incident of being hit by a pickup truck while riding his bike.

Christoph Meyer is a father who writes a personal zine with many personal touches. This issue talks about his great computer crash (losing all of his writing), ongoing stories about Herbie, his son, putting sharp objects into glasses of water, a funny piece reflecting on the way people drink a different kind of beer on the weekends in his town (based on testimonials from the local convenience store), more stories about the uniqueness of their town, a comic story "Pasghetti and Meat Bulb", the story of his copy guy getting fired, a note that he found on the street, getting his sump pump cleaned out, and more. Christoph contributes a lot of sincerity and personality to each issue he makes and each letter that he writes.

Look at his son's website.

One of two cute mini-zines by Christoph of Twenty-eight Pages Lovingly Bound With Twine. "The Heart Star" is the more serious of a story. It's the interesting tale of a girl that dies with a broken heart, and her struggles to find peace.

A collaborative comic between Herbie Meyer and his well loved father, Christoph! Find out the fate of the popsicle who gets forgotten on the counter and starts to feel the heat wave. A cute story for children and adults - by a creative 5 year old! Much fun had by all of us here reading the story! There are also plenty of adult jokes to keep the paging turning!

One of two cute mini-zines by Christoph of Twenty-eight Pages Lovingly Bound With Twine. "What God..." is a fun story, proving what most of us have believed for quite a while: God is a jerk!

Christoph Meyer of Twenty Eight Pages does a book! And like his zine it's filled with loving, time consuming touches. The story is his family's journey on Amtrak across the US - from Cleveland to Portland for the Zine Symposium. The writing is extremely funny, sweet, thoughful - just like you'd expect from this lover of zines. The book itself is packed with little hand done trimmings like train shaped hole punches, a real photograph, stamps, highlighting, stickers. Books are hand numbered with a paper ribbon sealed with wax. If Christoph charged his actual labor this book would probably be about $150!
