Welcome to the virtual festival! Below is a randomly ordered grid of online stores from zinesters and creators of small art. Submitted by the members of the Zine Crisis discord in the #virtual-festival channel. Browse through to find your next favorite indie treasure!

Warning: Many of these stores sell transgressive and mature content, so check warnings on store pages if you are sensitive to such materials. We try to add [18+ thumbnails] if their site has adult-only thumbnails, but we may miss some and a lack of the [18+ thumbnails] label it doesn’t indicate a store with non-adults-only art

I am letting the first 12 issues of Meeting Comics go out of print, since they are now collected in book form. I am discounting the remaining copies. Different quantities of each issue available! Retail price $6, now $3 (with the exception of #1, which is $4). https://wanderlane.bigcartel.com/
