Bad Seed

A product of KICKS magazine, New York, NY. Thin, stapled fanzine for Juvenile Delinquency fans. Apparently published from 1984 to 1986.

The publication was very, very cheaply made, using standard paper and a copy machine. It also comments on newspaper articles and movies that sensationalize the JD genre.

Having said that, I'm impressed. It does a fairly good job of covering a topic that has become exceptionally popular among the Vintage Paperback crowd. Obvious stress on the cover art and primary authors, such as Orrie Hitt, and J.D. titles within specific labels, such as Avon and Beacon.
