Nozone is an independently published comics and graphics journal changing theme and format from issue to issue. The “Crime” issue (special pocket-thriller size) investigates the morality of crime, the banality of violence, and the function of law enforcement through an unusual hybrid of words and images. The value of this project lies in its protean format and its belief in the satirical image to bring about social awareness. Nozone’s marginal audience is believed to include disaffected youth, visionary dystopians, and disgruntled art directors.
