Blackjack & Nutten
The name for this fanzine, Blackjack & Nutten (German for "Blackjack and hookerss"), edited by Frau H., comes from a quote from the TV-show Futurama, in which the character Bender says, "Yeah, well, I‘m gonna go build my own theme park. With blackjack, and hookers! In fact… forget the park!“
This zine is written in German and dealing with everything around pop culture. It is available for free in some record stores, bars, cafés or downloadable from their homepage. It's funded partly by advertisements.
