FANzine Live - Classic Zines - Beat Comics #1 featuring ThunderStorm

We have a great-looking hero comic in the FANzine Live Classic Zines video spotlight today, Beat Comics #1. Great art aside, I love the unique approach of telling the story from the perspective of the hero's real-life spouse. Take a look!
Karl Heitmueller still is drawing today. Check out his Instagram here: / toughguygoods

Great review of my friend's comic! Brings back lots of good memories. 😁

Thank you! I'd say it holds up, don't you think?

This is a neat little story! I love how he's not hiding his identity from her and even has a mask for her when he goes out in costume.
As for the zine, it looks really well done. Is the paper glossy paper or regular copy paper? The black ink shines really well

It's regular paper! Amazing what offset printing can do, especially when comparing to the much lesser quality of photocopying in the day. It was the Gold Standard back in the 80s. I recall learning offset printing back in high school in (pre-electronic) graphic arts class.
Here's a recent video about offset printing: facebook.com/Inside.Edition/videos/3130005623804493
