Ben is Dead Issue #9. April 1, 1990
No place: Darby, Publisher, 1990. Wraps. Good. Item #019660
Side stapled zine, more of a traditional magazine format. 8 ½ by 11 inches. 40 pp. Illustrations throughout. Issue nine of Darby's long running zine, Ben is Dead. As Darby notes, she started the zine as a "forum and an escape," eventually using it as a vehicle to explore the world and a variety of experiences. While earlier issues tended to cover punk music and the punk scene, the zine eventually grew to cover a range of women's experiences and pop culture in general. (Green [editor] p. 70). With a good review of the opera staged at Al's Bar by Lisa Carver and Suckdog, the usual music/band reviews, etc. GOOD+ condition. General toning. Minor wrinkling and creasing.
