Welcome to the OTGW Anniversary Zine !

This is going to be a zine that celebrates ten years of the Over the Garden Wall air date on Cartoon Network. It first aired back on November 3, 2014. The main theme of the zine will be a celebration of the series and a showcase of how much people love it !Disclaimer: We are not affiliated with the series, or with cartoon network. This is also a non-profit zine, meaning that all funds will go towards the zine itself and all remaining funds will be donated to a charity of our choice.


FAQ

What is a zine?
A zine is a collection of art and writing. It can be a booklet you stapled together for fun or a professional-looking bound book. Zines come in all shapes and sizes! They are often fan projects ('fanzines') where people can create works based on a series but they can have any theme, really.
What are the zine specifications?
This zine will be a SFW (family-friendly) zine focusing on the characters and themes from the series. It will be a charity zine meaning all surplus is donated to charity. The number of contributors and whether the zine will be physical or digital will be determined via the Interest Check.
How will contributors be compensated?
Contributors will receive a free digital copy of the zine. If the zine goes to print and physical merch is made, we will aim to provide contributors with a free copy of the zine, costs allowing. If we do not break even, contributors will be able to buy the zines at production cost, instead.
Who is allowed to apply?
Anyone is allowed to apply, we do not have an age limit as it is a family-friendly zine. You do not need to have any previous zine experience either. We are willing to help anyone learn the zine process if they are itnerested in applying.
Will I need a Discord account to participate?
Discord is our key method of communication with participants. You will be expected to create a Discord account if you do not have one already.
If I have any questions, where do I ask them?
We have a Retrospring where we answer any and all questions!
