The reason why the fanzine is being created.
We want every LGBT character and every LGBT Ship in RWBY to feel represented. The recent RT Pride merch drop while it also included a May Marigold shirt (seriously a popular Trans character like May shouldn’t only just get one shirt she deserves a line all her own) only included the main girls recycled from previous merch lines only with a rainbow slap dashed onto the shirt. We feel that while RT did their best we also feel that many other major LGBT characters and ships were shafted. And that isn’t good. While we cannot offer t-shirts and other apparel we can offer a digital fanzine both for all ages and 18+ versions created by fans.
We all hope you can join us in this endeavor.
All entries must be received by June 15th
All proceeds will go to The Trevor Project and The Ali Forney Center both of which are dedicated to helping LGBT youth through tough times and Homelessness and ensuring that they can make it through.
Please submit your Artwork, fanfiction, and Poetry to
