⊶ What is a zine? ⊷
fan·zine
/ˈfanˌzēn/
noun
a magazine, usually produced by amateurs, for fans of a particular performer, group, or form of entertainment.
"a football fanzine"
A zine, or fanzine, is a non-official self-published media publication containing fanart, fanfiction, or original articles from a group of participants. Zines are produced by enthusiastic fans who want to share their love of a particular piece of medium with other fans. The original creator of My Hero Academia and all companies owning copyright are not involved in any way, so the project's scale is kept small and has a limited run as to not be considered mass-producing. Nothing trademarked will be used.
More on Wiki⋈⊶ Why are you not accepting minors in the zine? ⊷For legal and safety reasons. As this fanzine is rated 18+, we can not, in any good conscience, allow minors to enter any NSFW space. Both for the minors and the adults safety.
We hope that you can understand our decision.⋈⊶ How do you join a zine as a contributor? ⊷
During the contributor apps period, applicants sent samples showcasing their abilities and skills. Emails are sent informing the selection results to those who applied.
All mods reviewed applications based on criteria such as art style and anatomy, technicalities in coloring and proficiency in backgrounds. For writers, among the criteria are pacing, imagery, story-weaving and characterizations. We have a beta mod that will be able to help with grammar and spelling. Experience can be taken in consideration, but it's in terms of a creator's career; no prior zine participation or numbered following required. Everyone had an equal chance of being accepted.⋈⊶ What will be found in the zine? ⊷
The theme is Cyberpunk, which is extremely large and full of possibilities! Each contribution will depict a piece showing a world where technology is way more advanced, a dystopian world taking place in an alternative future. It could be based on that decade's movies, posters, music, fashion, hairstyles, etc.⋈⊶ Are portrayal of genderbending/cisswapping okay for this zine? ⊷While genderbending shouldn't be an issue with other characters, if a character is known to be transgender, or non gender conforming, we don't think it would be fair to show them as the opposite gender.
Ex: Magne being a trans woman in the manga/anime, cisswapping her as a man wouldn't feel right.
If there is any confusion about these terms or this rule, the team is open to providing clarification and would certainly welcome any further information. It goes without saying that headcanon of any character being trans is accepted.⋈⊶ Will contributors share teasers outside the Discord Server? ⊷
The Mod Team ask contributors to not share teasers of their work outside the Discord Server until we give the green light to post cropped previews and excerpts during pre-order period. When all pre-order have been sent out, the full piece can be shown.⋈⊶ Can a contributor sell artwork created for the zine? ⊷Until the project is wrapped up and announced completely over, we demand for contributors not to reveal their full piece or sell it. After all customers received their copies and the Discord server is shut down, all rights remains with artists and authors, so they may do as they please with their creations.
