About the Zine

Gabby's life gets flip-turned upside down when a beautiful punk chick shows up to rob her store. Soon, our heroine makes her way into the underground resistance to brutal capitalism, finding hope among resilient communities—and going against opposition that absolutely fucking hates them. Can the rebels and punks defend their little patches of freedom? What will Gabby learn as she sheds wage slavery? Is she tough enough to ride against a riot line? Find out in Gabby & Cuervo Issue 5 Double Feature: Sisterhood of Chains!

About the Author

Jackson Culpepper is a teacher, writer, and zine artist. His debut short story collection, Songs on the Water, won the Landmark prize in fiction and was published by Homebound publications in 2022. The stories in that book are all about growing up in the Southern culture of Georgia; ever since then, he's been trying to get out of there both physically and spiritually. (To be fair, the South has some really cool communities, but it's a lot.) His ongoing zine series, Gabby & Cuervo, follows the adventures of a punk collective and a psychic witch in a cyberpunk future. When he's not writing, Jackson is usually hiking, playing tabletop games, and going out to goth night.
