update : The Contributor's are here
POSTED ON : JULY 4th • POSTED BY Zuki (@damareizuki)
I cannot stress enough how much I am and the whole team is excited to introduce our amazing contributors. When I first conceptualized Seven Deadly Zine, I really envisioned that I would be inviting a writer and an artist for each sin.
I decided to choose the writers while I let Cinna take care of the artist's side. I had an initial list that went over so many revisions while I drown in doubt of whether these awesome people would bother with the whole invitation. Admittedly even when I handled numerous huge projects in real life and despite me working for magazines and publications, this is my first time handling a zine that would have contributors in it. And I have been in huge publications before and oh boy, I know the complications that come from it.
Me and Cinna had been worried over the whole thing that we decided that we'll just do it, just the two of us. But with some encouragement, I decided to push through with the initial plan and dragged Cinna into it (lol). When Sassie hopped into the project she helped me so much with choosing the right writers for each sin. It took a lot of thinking, waiting, and a whole bunch of anxiety before we finally arrived at our final contributor's list. And I am never been more happy and proud of the lineup this zine brings to you.
If you want to know the complete lineup, you can now check it in our newly added contributor's tab.
As the creation phase began, we're all very excited to bring you stories and art that we hope you'll love!

F.A.Q
O1 | Is this a for-profit zine?
Yes, Seven Deadly Zine is a for-profit zine which we will either sell digitally or with a physical copy.
O2 | Will there be any physical zine and merch?
We will be running an interest check to see if there is a demand for physical copies and once our quota is met then we will do our best to release physical copies of the zine which will definitely include merch.
O3 | What is the theme of the zine?
The theme of the zine is Seven Deadly Sins which are pride, greed, wrath, envy, lust, gluttony, and sloth. There will also be a special sin included which is despair, the eighth sin. It doesn't necessarily mean that it is a religion-based zine rather it will explore each sin in different settings and universe, integrating it with BKDK
O5 | Is this an NSFW zine?
This is an NSFW zine as the themes and the artwork will tackle sensitive topics ranging from death, violence, abuse, and the likes. Therefore all contributors and moderators are 18+. If a contributor is found lying about their age, they'll automatically be removed from the zine.
O6 | Why is the Zine invite-only?
We decided the zine to be an invite-only zine because the topic is very specific. We gave a lot of thought about the contributors and the sin that they'll be writing or making art about. It is also a huge factor that the Zine will only have one piece of work per sin.
