Zines to share
More zines have arrived in our mailbox, enjoy!
And yet more zines!
Probe from South Africa features an impressive cover created by AI. An article near the end of the ish explains the process and includes yet more AI generated images. The key words were storm, dragon, spaceship. It appears that AI is not quite sure of what a spaceship is.
Beyond the cover, we have book reviews and some very interesting fiction worth the read.
