Abstract: 
From the same metafictional universe as films like Best in Show and This is Spinal Tap, Walking Man documents the life and times of Brian Walker, publisher of the zine Walking Man. The book satirizes so-called "alternative" culture while it fondly recollects the 80s and 90s zine scene.

Date: 
December 2006
Volume: 
Vol. 2, No. 3
Abstract: 
Words and art from current exhibitions at the Green Lantern Gallery, artist and curatorial statements, upcoming events, excerpts from upcoming works from the Green Lantern Press, guest pieces from other "culture workers" as well as text pieces based loosely around the theme of the current exhibition in collaboration with the artist. In this case, it's "Out of the Woods." "We ask, 'Is he out of the woods?' If they respond, '...not out of the woods yet,' it is a phrase that is often used as a nice way of saying 'not in the clear, but keep on hoping for the best.' This work is an attempt to explore 'the woods' as this state of danger, of nearness to death."
