About

Vex is a quarterly print zine featuring humor, art, music, fiction, weirdness, satire, comics and more. Vex was first published in 2003 as a one-off booklet of stories, in-jokes, and confusion. It was revived in 2007, and has grown in size and readership since then. Currently 1,500 copies of each issue are printed. Vex is available free at all the kewl spots throughout Seattle and Tacoma (with the occasional handful in Bellingham, Olympia and Portland).

Currently, we’re in the process of archiving all the back issues, so keep checking back. The longer pieces can be found indexed under Articles; for the shorter stuff, along with some internet-only content, click one of the tags under Quickies at right and prepare to be amazed.
