What is a fanzine?
A fanzine is an unofficial collaborative collection of artworks and writing, usually based on a theme, combined into a booklet.What is this zine about?
Our zines are centered around the animated show Lego: Monkie Kid. Our second project, Megapolis Mania, has a theme of slice of life!What is the rating for this zine?
Our zines are rated SFW!
If we were to ever host a zine that extends past the rating of our source material (TV-Y7),
it would be rated PG-13 at most.Will this zine be physical or digital?
Megapolis Mania will be both digital and physical!Will there be merch?
There will be both digital and physical merch.Who is allowed to apply as a contributor?
Anyone above the age of 13 at the time of application is allowed to apply as a contributor.Do I need a Discord account?
Discord will be our primary form of communication, so yes! If you do not have an account, you will need to create one.What happens to zine pieces after the project ends?
Contributors retain full ownership over their piece and retain the right to do as they wish with said piece after the zine concludes! We only ask that contributors not share or post their pieces until after the mods grant such permissions.Which characters are we allowed to feature in this zine?
Any characters from Lego Monkie Kid!Is ship content allowed in the zine?
This is dependent on the theme of the zine.Will contributors be compensated?
Currently, our plan is to provide every contributor with a physical copy of the zine, as well and a full digital bundle. Whether we will be able to grant each contributor a full bundle of merch in addition will be dependent on preorders, and any funds generated from that.Where will the zine’s profits go?
