A photo of our zine donation box that is covered in fun stickers sat on two tables with two books, one called 'Make a Zine' and the other called 'Making comic zines'.
Are you a zinester? Do you want to contribute to our new #zines collection at Wolverhampton? Have you always wanted to try to make a zine? We now have a donation box to accept homemade zines by our community and suggestions. We have a selection of blank zines to help you get started as well.

Gave myself a push to finish FFVII Rebirth and have found it v enjoyable, nostalgic, engaging - combat not that challenging to be fair, but still fun - did skip some of the more annoying minigames though (the piano game wtf??)
Cleared space for me to get Dark Deity 2 now
