Despite Everything

Initially a showcase for underground music reviews, Cometbus has evolved to include interviews, essays, short stories, and reader forums. Covering everything from travel adventures to dumpster diving, Cometbus forms a literary soundtrack for the lives of its readers. Despite Everything contains dozens of photos, illustrations, and the best material from all 48 issues of Cometbus, one of the original punk zines. "One of the finest examples of self-publishing in the United States today.... [Cometbus] could be the best-loved zine ever." — San Francisco Bay Guardian
