Ryan writes a personal style, well-known narrative zine about his life as an anarchist. Since this is the "fun pack" issue it's actually 3 zines in one. Vol 1 explains his background at length, a response to September 11 from his perspective, growing up around livestock, his experiences with the way the Vetrinarian treated him and his kitty, getting older in a lifestyle of predominantly younger people, race & community, and even more. Vol 2 covers a story about a job in a factory, some works of fiction, book and zine reviews, some record reviews disguised as a story, and notes on dealing with prisons and prisoners. The mini supplement titled "step child" includes some more stories about working and being around a Christian person and their interactions with each other; my favorite part of this issue. "Just a punk kid with a pen." $1 from each zine supports the Portland Zine Symposium.

Ryan writes a personal style, well-known narrative zine about his life as an anarchist. This issue talks about his experiences seeing poverty on the street and having trouble reading the newspaper, reflections on news and current events, an interview with writer Bruce Holland Rogers, an article and interview about ManiFest, an annual event that commemorates the death of their son through music and community gathering, plus works of fiction, book and zine reviews, and notes on dealing with prisons and prisoners. The huge and exciting special feature this issue though is a big focus on discussion of DIY and independence with punk record labels. This topic prompted a special double issue of Maximum Rock and Roll about the same topics, but it started here folks! A great feature that sheds lights and makes you think about these very important issues of corporate commodification and the grey area of working in business in the punk realm.
