'''Revenge of Print''' is a challenge to [[zinester]]s, [[minicomic]] creators, and other independent publishers to produce at least one new issue of their publication (or to make their first zine) in 2011. This project originated with Baltimore's [[Atomic Books]] and Chicago's [[Quimby's]] Bookstore.
 
  
In promoting the project, Liz Mason of Quimby's [http://www.quimbys.com/blog/zines/revengeofprint/ said], "We're tired of all the end of paper, the end of publishing as we know it stories. We've been hearing it ever since we've been open (which is going on almsot 20 years now). ... Maybe you were thinking in the back of your head you'd do another issue one day. Now is the time."

'''That Girl'''  was a zine published by Los Angeles, U.S.A. and San Francisco, U.S.A.-based zine writer Kelli Williams, who also published under the name [[Kelli Callis]], from the mid-1990's until sometime in the early 2000's. The series spanned 11 issues and was a [[perzine]] with a feminist and usually humorous slant.
  
As Benn Ray of Atomic Books [http://atomicbooksblog.blogspot.com/search?q=revenge+of+print posted] at the bookstore's blog, "A healthy zine culture means we need access to and critical discussion of zines," and "Print is only dead if you want it to be. [[Revenge of Print|Read More...]]'''
