ZiP: Zine in Progress aka ZiP MegaZine is a hacker-friendly, fully autonomated, frequently festive, quasi-quarterly MegaZine, created and edited by Tony Longshanks LeTigre and the mysterious personage known as The Whimsical Wizard of ZiP (aka Whimzy).

ZiP launched its first issue, 7DC, on Valentine's Day, Feb. 14, 2012, with a Zine Release Microparty at Noisebridge called My Noisy Valentine

ZiP chapter 2, "Anarchy Enema," was released in late April, 2012, and is currently on the shelves at a number of venerable Mission-District indie bookstores & distros, including Needles & Pens, Modern Times and Dog-Eared Books.

ZiP chapter 3, "Zealous Insanity Parade," is being put together at the time of this writing for a projected July 15th, 2012 release. Submissions will be accepted through Sunday, July 1st. New contributors welcome! Cover image of ZiP03:

ZiP now has its own site, ZZZ, where the full text of every issue of the zine will be available to read free or download and print yourself! See link below.
