was replaced with a new form of distribution that shifted risk to the comics shops, which catered to a seg-ment of the market made up of dedicated fans who were typically older teenage boys and young men interested in a limited range of genres.
With the traditional press belonging to men, we can see that there was a tendency to practice a structure with power from the top to down

Where regular comics might discuss dating or flirting, Underground Comix might cover ass-fucking and orgies. Mainstream comics may deal with playing video games, but where Foxtrot would make jokes about how complex video games have gotten by showing the father in awe of his son's game-playing ability,
So, th ere were lots of the difference between regular comics with the underground comix. And we can observe that underground comix have no limits on their contents and their freedom of expression but the regular comics might appeal to mass audience.

For Menduni, podcasting was a bridge betweenInternet radio and traditional forms of wireless radio—which represented a tem-porary solution reflecting ‘‘radio’s past rather than its future, recalling its amateurphase: i.e., those wireless (sanfilistes) radio-amateursof the 1910s and 1920s whobuilt their own radio sets prior to mass production. This suggests that podcastingis a mid-term technology, representing one of a number of possible ways for radioto face a complex digital future’’
It is interesting to evaluate Podcasting composition as a mid-term technology between Internet radio and traditional wireless radio. It seemed that podcasting was a innovation of wireless radio but itself meet a challenge to update as technologies have always changed so fast.

The Term zine
Discussion Questions
1.“My afterlives project is designed to explore what kinds of subjects were brought into being through zine-ing, how those subjects were constituted socially, and how the social forms they created enabled particular kinds of activities and activism on behalf of an altered relation to the twenty-first-century world”（p.148）
1）Do you think Internet E zines are similar to printed zines? Or it changes the underground nature of the zines because they were small circulation at the very beginning.
2） Do you think it is unethical for a zine to make a profit？
3.“In the end, though, Duncombe concludes sadly that the politics of the under-ground are, for the most part, a failed politics:So long as the politics of underground culture remain the politics of culture, they will remain a virtual politics. As such, I have little hope that underground culture can effect meaningful social change, the very change it cries out for through its articulated critiques and very form. Individuals can and will be radicalized through underground culture, but they will have to make the step to political action themselves."(p143) Duncombe thinks that the nature of zine is to focus on the individual level instead of effecting meaningful social change and his conclusion is oppositional to Radyway. 3）Zines can influence individuals and community on small scales and do you think they can contribute to affect large scale meaningful social and political changes in the future?

This recognitionof the fact that the commercial book trade operated not accordingto the high-minded dictates of liberal tolerance but according tocapitalistic, masculinist interests potentially in conflict with thesecond-wave feminist agenda was the primary understanding onwhich feminist publishing practice was based.

I think it explains why there was no cultural identity and no mainstream in Canada at that time. The historical background and economics impacts led to this dependence.
