A Spanish Language version of Support zine! Cindy enlisted the help of a whole slew of friends to help translate Support into Spanish so it would be available to even more people than before! It's the original zine in its entirety. Here's the original listing for Support in case you haven't seen it: In a time when sexual assault and abuse are an increasing problem; even in so-called radical and punk communities, and when most women have been sexually abused in one way or another, Cindy Crabb (Doris Zine) brings us a document showing ways to prevent sexual violence and support survivors of sexual abuse. The zine helps to define consent, some letters that Cindy has received, listening, talking about sex, power dynamics, comics by Fly, and much more! A crucial resource that reads much like a regular issue of Doris.

Cindy's zine is one of best personal zines with a serious political background and idealogy. This is really worth all of the hype and more. She draws cute little scribbly cartoons about her life and talks a lot about sex and abortion issues. For every story she tells about her friends there is an article about baking a cake and some subtle references to anarchism. Very diverse and smart while remaining cute and relevant. Every issue is new and exciting.

Cindy Crabb's zine is simply one of the best personal zines, complete with little scribbly cartoons and a subtle idealogical base worked in for good measure. It is really worth all of the hype and more. This is the L-M-N-O issue of the alphabet series discusses love, the ladies' group she attends with her grandmother, the process of menstrual extraction (a process developed in 1970 for women to take control of their bodies from home before abortion was legal), stories of living with her grandparents in Arizona, and a frightening trip that brought her and a friend to the California beaches where they got water logged in their tent and had to make an emergency evacuation. The beauty of the zine is how she slips in the simplest sentence in the middle of a story that connects her reading a book as a 16 year old to cultural appropriation or talks about her grandmother using the same inflection as her deceased mother and you can smile with her or shed a single tear because you understand and you can tell that she understands you too.

New issue of doris!! This issue in the alphabetical series:O and P, featuring Ohio, Politics, Pitchfork, Power, Primitivism, and Punk! There are meditations on living in seclusion and enjoying the quiet, curing poison ivy, and the importance of girls screaming for all they're worth. If you are a Doris fan already, then you'll really be into this one. Definitely more of the trademark aesthetic that we've come to know and love. Introspective, inspiring, and easy to relate to...c'mon everybody, don't we all see the connection between DIY punk rock songs and new country radio? If not, then we need to pay better attention.

The cover of Doris #25 is super bright and colorful, with red crayon scribbles making up the background. Inside is more from the alphabet series. We've made it to Q and Cindy answers Questions and talks about Quitting drinking. The questions are actual questions asked of her that she's attempting to answer. Things like What Do You Want to Do the Most?, and What Do You Remember Most About Your Mother? Talking about drinking is obviously hard, and talking about quitting is harder. Cindy talks about the times when alcohol controlled her life, and about fighting to take back control of her own life.

Cindy writes her zine, DORIS, like she is figuring out the human condition. She makes writing about the simplest and most common things - playing music, childhood, cooking, or sex, resonate with universal understanding. She helps us make sense of more complex things like the satisfaction from doing useful work, natural curiosity, the ability to use logic, gender dynamics, introspection, the need for challenge and change, combating depression, and creating art and literature. She shares and explores the emotions that go along with having an abortion, rape, dealing with the death of family, or sexual harrassment in a context that is enlightening and personal, feeling like a close friend opening up to you. What's most impressive though is that she relates these things into every article in her zine seamlessly. ISBN 0-9726967-8-4
