Political humor, satirical fiction, and a lot about television and comic books.

This pleasant issue is subtitled &ldquo;Christmas body count&rdquo;, in reference to the deaths in Iraq, and elsewhere, I suppose. Oddly enough, this issue also has a Dr. Suess theme. Yes, you heard me right. JGQ, which is one of the few zines out there dealing with SERIOUS FUCKING TOPICS, has added a touch of Cat in the Hat this time around. You still get all the depressing facts and figures, and you still get the witty political humor, but this time around it is delivered via four line phrases, rhyming of course, and lots of Dr. Suess illustrations. Brilliant. Full size, 20 pages. <br />

War issue for the Fall of 2003. Lots of political clipart, and stories about the War in Iraq. This issue dis&rsquo;s on capitalism, and promotes underground literature. If you want to read a clever set of stories about political discontent, then this is your chance. Full size, 20 pages. <br />

Rumsfeld graces this cover, looking as pleasant as ever. This is the Summer of 2003 issue, and has lots of stuff making fun of Dubya, making fun of people who use guns (Guns are for sissies!), and a piece about a possible connection between Bush being president and all the porno spam that floats around on the internet. Also a long story about vampires. Full size, 20 pages. <br />

A fictional story about life in the White House, reflections on being a substitute teacher, and funny cartoons with (drum roll) political messages. Full size, 20 pages. <br />

&quot;For some months now, I have been engaged in the process of teaching youth-- who have a natural inclination for such things anyway-- that everything they have ever been told is wrong. Under the belief that it is not too late for the best and brightest of old dogs to learn new tricks, I wish to impart some of the same basic information that I have been giving them. My aim is to give activists and other critical thinkers new tools for dismantling the master's house.&quot;<br />
