F-Disk IV Presents: DLa 15[ July/August 2002 ]

F-Disk IV In June of 2002, the Dead Letter Art collective reorganized itself, establishing a fully integrated Eastside DLa office, located in Moses Lake, Washington. Although the transition left the organization in chaos, both halves of DLa — Eastside and Westside — worked together throughout June and July to stay on schedule and produce yet another issue of DLa. As plans for the issue unfolded, a necessity to streamline production became apparent. Suddenly, DLa 15 began looking a lot like an old issue of F-Disk. Our first stab at desktop publishing, the F-Disk zine series consists of three incoherent issues of mismatched artwork and seemingly random assortments of comix and text. Likewise, for DLa 15, artists threw down a thematically diverse variety of content that refused to fit neatly into a single, unified theme. Thus, department heads dubbed DLa 15 F-Disk IV, wisely using the opportunity to merge the orphaned F-Disk trilogy with the thriving DLa series, thereby establishing a unified publication effort.

DLa 15 features exclusive artwork from Bleeding Heart, FCU, Kalacakra, Nimbus, Osseus, Perishable, Sui Lan, and ThaneC. Also, ThaneC shares an intimate Werdz Page, and also spins a chilling tale of Dada Sharpe suspense in ultra-tuff comic-strip format. Plus, Perishable pimps the Devil tarot card, and even digs up a fresh Contents Page.
