Gullible 26/Snake Pit 34 Split Reviewed In MRR In 2005

Reviewed by AS in Maximum Rock 'n' Roll in, if I remember right, the September '05 issue.


"Here we have a split between Snake Pit and Gullible. Ben Snakepit, whose awesome zine features scores and scores of three-paneled strips (each documenting one day of his life), shifts gears here and does his half with all writing, no comics. The result? Snakepit can hold his own without the aid of pictures, luring you in with tales of heartbreak and humor over which he reminisces while traveling Japan. His enthusiasm is infectious and his stories are a blast to read. C.T. Terry of Gullible zine tells some tour stories too, and adds some comics and a recipe for variety. This is a solidly written and produced zine. In fact it even has some graphic and aesthetic themes! Zine makers need to look at zines like this and pay close attention, maybe even take notes. Good stuff."

Gullible/Blurt Split Receives Tepid Review In MRR

Review written by Nick Mangel in Maximum Rock 'n' Roll No. 285 (February 2007)

"Pretty interesting personal split here. Gullible is mainly personal stories, somewhat Cometbus-style, with some stuff about life being on tour, etc. Blurt is all about drinking stories, and some pretty funny ones at that. It probably tells you something about my sense of humor and level of mental development that I found the drinking stories much more engaging. Cool."
