“Perzines” are a slippery territory for me as a reviewer.
They are so subjective, and the writer is sharing their personal insights and
perspectives, so almost impossible to critique reasonably. It is with some
trepidation that I write about perzines to begin with, possibly only because
I’m starting to write perzines myself after decades of content based zines or
literary journals.
Breakfast for Dinner #2 is a sheer joy to read. The comics
are crisp, alternating with typewritten pages in which Marc chronicles his
life. Marc discusses personal experiences with depression in a matter-of-fact
way, which (in my opinion) is the best approach to managing and recovering from
depression’s debilitating effects. There is more about relationships,
conversations, and zines and … dogs! Beautiful and appetizing (ok, pun
intended) zine.
