This is one of the more obscure zines I've looked at, Murder can be Fun
This quirky zine bases itself around
bizarre death, murder, mayhem, crime, disaster, weird books and even weirder people. It began in San Francisco in 1986, being published by a guy called John Marr, having been running for over 20 years, Marr researches vigorously every issue into the different strange deaths and oddities which have occurred and then tries to document the funniest.
The zine started out as a 16 page, xeroxed publication and has since grown to 48 pages. There have only been 20 different issues which is not a lot considering the time it has been around.
It seems to have a mixed style, some illustration some cliche photography, but no real experimentation, I like it but it seems like the safe option, nothing wrong with that but I want to make something a bit more unique...
