I haven't read the Zine yet, but I love the concept. Play reports bundled together into an illustrated Zine (released for free). In this case it was a west marches campaign with three DMs. Link here. Imagine if Gary Gygax and others did this sort of thing back ub the day and we had play reports of their different campaigns. Imagine if TSR/WotC had a library of such things for people to read looking for ideas or just entertainment. I think that would be pretty cool.
I re-read the few surviving notes from my old campaigns in the 80s and wish I'd kept better records and that I'd preserved such records. Especially if the reports weren't just dry in game reports but included asides of player interactions (then they went into a 10 minute discussion of Dar from Beastmaster versus Talon from Sword and the Sorcerer...) I think the nostalgia jolt would be a lot of fun.
