CallingSpots

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

We make a fanzine about professional wrestling and about to launch our 12th issue. We are nothing like Powerslam was or like FSM is, but we seem to be doing something right to make it this far. You can pre-order a copy of our new issue for just £1.99 at CallingSpots.com/wrestling-merchandise

 

Hopefully you will all agree that the front Paige of the issue looks particularly lovely?

Those covers really are a thing of beauty.

 

Excellent issue once again although the Triple H piece was pretty pointless and hated the Savage DVD review but everything else was brilliant reading, excellently written. Loved the Jimmy Havoc stuff, makes me want to check out his work, I need to see some PROGRESS.

 

As someone who adores 1995 WWF it was nice to read something positive (not too negative at least) about that year.

 

Have bought every issue and the difference between issue 1 to 12 is amazing, you guys really are growing and better so much better as writers and at putting the fanzine together. To go from looking like something a few lads knocked up in their bedrooms to something that wouldn't look out of place of the shelves of Smiths in such short time is brilliant.

 

Here's to plenty more.

Good evening gents,

 

Thank you both for your support and for these kind words. It's really great to hear from both a loyal reader who has been with us since our humble beginning two years ago as well as somebody who is completely new to the 'zine.

 

Looking back, our first issues were a million miles from the product that we produce today, but those formative 'bedroom years' do still have a place in our hearts. They were VERY much DIY style. In fact, we have all of our back issues available for free to subscribers on the website one you log in - so you can see the evolution of the 'zine here.

Thank you both for taking the time to tell us your likes and dislikes. Feedback like this will help us ensure that our team write content that you want to read and that you won't find elsewhere.

 

Thank you - Rich and the Calling Spots team.
