Welcome to the Zine O’Biology

A multi-fandom Star Trek Zine.

Do you have strong opinions on Vulcan fra’als, Cardassian tails, or how the heck Trill symbionts reproduce? We want to hear from you!

The Zine O’Biology is a fictional comparative xenobiology academic journal set in the Star Trek universe. If you’ve always wanted to wax eloquent for up to 3000 words about your theories on alien biology, welcome to your new home!

We want all your theories about all your favorite aliens! This is a friendly but competitive academic journal where the content of every paper is a little bit suspicious (is this paper based on rumor or fact? What is the methodology?) and some competing authors leave snarky comments on one another’s work. So just like a real academic journal, except ours features the Great Green Anthurium.

We welcome xenobiology articles on all Star Trek aliens from all series!

The final format will be a PDF that you can scroll at your leisure or print at home in order to have a physical copy of the Zine. (This way there is no money involved.)

ALIEN BIOLOGY ARTICLES

How do Andorian genders work? Are Cardassians actually lizards? Why do Klingons have so many redundant organs? What’s the biological purpose of Bajoran nose ridges? What’s the best cement mix for emergency surgery on a Horta?

You’ve been pondering alien biology for years. This is your chance to infodump all your favorite theories to an eager audience of your fellow nerds!

Articles will be separated into two categories: reproductive biology or general biology. Yes, we also want all your theories on what every species is packing downstairs…and how they use it.

Journal articles should be fun and engaging, but also written in your interpretation of a pseudo-academic style, since this is a highly respected Federation xenobiology journal. If you want to keep things more lighthearted and less academic, check out the section on Letters to the Editor.

ALIEN BIOLOGY ARTWORK

If you have independent illustrations about alien biology we would love to see them! If you would like to provide illustrations for one of our journal articles, tell us what species you want to illustrate and we’ll do our best to match you up!

Art should be in a square, scaleable format, printable at high resolution at 4x4 inches.

JOURNAL ADVERTISEMENTS

Even in a post-need future, academic journals will need a little extra funding. Submit your ads for Ferengi Oomox Creme, Self Sealing Stem Bolts, Gently Used Federation Technology, and, of course, “reproductive aids.” The weirder the better! Have fun with it!

All art needs to be printable at high resolution

Ad Sizes:

1 column (vertical) 3.5 x 7

half page (horizontal) 8 x 5

banner (narrow horizontal) 8 x 2

in-text (square) 3.5 x 3.5 scaleable

in-text (half-square) 3.5 x 1.75

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Do you have a great idea, but it’s not enough to fill out a 3000 word article? Submit it as a “reaction” to a previous journal article. Feel free to lay into a mythical researcher who does NOT understand why their biological theory is wrong and yours is right!

Max length 800 words. Enjoy making these plenty frothy!

WE NEED SUB-EDITORS!

The creators of this Zine are all notorious Vulcan Fuckers. Since we want the Zine O’Biology to be open to all alien species, it is only logical that we seek your expertise.

We’re seeking fans from all over the Star Trek universe to spread the word that yes, it’s time for us to all come together in the spirit of explaining how our favorite aliens come together.

Sub-Editors will be in charge of helping us solicit articles and art for their specific race of aliens and editing those articles in order to fit into the Zine. If we don’t have a sub editor for a species, we’ll do our best, but the chapter on that species won’t be as good as it would be if folks with real fanon knowledge were involved.

WANT TO GET INVOLVED, BUT YOU’RE NOT A WRITER OR ARTIST?

WE NEED:

Graphic designers to help with Zine layout

Social media promoters

Alien art and article wranglers (ie: get your fannish friends involved!)

--HOW TO GET INVOLVED--

Fill out the Art or Writing Google Form letting us know your interests or reach out to the Editor in Chief at [email protected]

DEADLINES:

August 1, 2024: Last date for everyone seeking an art or writing partner to submit their request. We don’t guarantee you’ll be partnered up. It depends on how many people are interested and what aliens they want to draw/write.

August 18, 2024: Art/Writing partners notified. NOTE: it’s both fine and encouraged if you want to submit as a team from the start! This is for people who do not have a partner and would like us to find them one.

August 30, 2024: Final call for all journal authors, artists, and advertisers to let us know what species they’re working with, how many submissions they plan to send, and whether their submission will be general or reproductive biology.

October 20, 2024: All art, advertising, and journal submissions are due

We hope to have the Zine O’Biology ready for your enjoyment by New Year’s Eve 2024. We all have full time jobs and lives, so that date may change depending on the volume of submissions.

FAQ

What if my biological theories are totally different from another author’s?

Yes. Perfect. We love it.

We want to see everyone’s theories! Canon gave us scraps, but together we will make a meal! Expect to see many mutually contradictory articles. That’s part of the fun!

What about Smut?

Yes, we are accepting E rated submissions! The journal will be separated into two sections:

General Biology

Reproductive Biology

General Biology is everything but the genitals

Reproductive Biology should include actual descriptions of the mechanics and biology. Think of it as creating reference material for smut writers and artists.

love love love LOVE how they use By Inferno's Light to show not only Garak fighting his claustrophobia, but the Klingon reaction to claustrophobia. A weak writer would've implied that such a thing was cowardice, but both Worf AND Martok (who is first to the Chancellor himself) see this as the ultimate act of bravery.

Martok: There is no greater enemy than one's own fears.

Worf: It takes a brave man to face them.

This is just so... I love Klingons. I love what DS9 brings to Klingons. Phobias and mental health alike, they're not weak, they are the ultimate enemy to wage continuous war against, and gain honor through. That's so much more powerful than what a weaker writer would've done with it.

we always see information pages abt like klingons, vulcans, cardassians, & all the other non-human-like alien species' and like their behavior in star trek- but i want something like that for the more "boring" species'.

"humans can often be territorial when confronted with losing what they consider theirs. (things like clothing, jewelry, and tools) humans are a very possessive race of people"

kind of like from the perspective of another people yk?? klingon database about humans. or just quark's notes for business and how to act around different folks. or post-war cardassians trying to reinstate themselves in the world and have allies.

[kryptidkhaos]

I used to spend a lot of time in the Atlanta nerdy convention circuit, did a lot of volunteering as a broke teen so I could get my badges for cheap or free, and a lot of my formative experiences happened at Dragon*Con. I was in with the Star Trek circuit, specifically. I was a card carrying member of Starfleet International and did a lot of crossover events with my local chapter and the local chapter of the Klingon Assault Group.

I was working in the hospitality suite (a room or area set up by the con to serve snacks and drinks, usually where the most alcohol is consumed after dark) early in the morning on the first Friday of a full weekend con, and we were all just kind of shuffling around with our coffees and setting out coolers full of sodas and water bottles.

One of our other staff members comes stumbling in for their shift and our head person asks if they saw anyone else coming through the lobby so far, so we have an idea on whether or not we need to really hustle before a hoard of grumpy not-fully-awake nerds are descending upon us for caffeine and cheese puffs.

"I saw a group of out-of-costume Klingons at check-in, but no one else so far."

We all nodded and kept going about our work for a good beat or two before one of the other volunteers suddenly stands up straight, blinks a few times, and says "...so you saw people in the lobby?"

There should have been a version of TNG's "Time's Arrow" where they run into Doc Brown in the late 1800s, but everyone's confused because wasn't he a Klingon?

Sometimes Star Trek TOS is just a Klingon woman next to a Klingon man, and the man saying: "My wife Mara, and my science officer". And then the camera shows Kirk and Spock next to each other. In silence, just staring at the ship commander/science officer married couple in front of them. We're probably supposed to think about something, but the show goes on. No explanation.
