A fanzine is a non-professional, self-published magazine or publication that is typically created by fans of a particular topic, such as a movie, band, sports team, or book series. Fanzines often feature articles, reviews, artwork, stories, and other content related to the interest or fandom they cover. These publications are usually distributed in limited quantities, either in print or online, and are produced independently without commercial backing. Fanzines allow fans to express their passion for a subject and share it with others who have similar interests.
