We want to thank everyone, once again, for a fantastic pre-order period. Physical production of our zines and merch is underway, and we're so excited to start shipping out orders.
However, we know some folks were unable to purchase the physical zine. We're pleased to announce the launch of our digital-only sales today, with all profits going directly to our charity, Black and Pink! $10 gets you our monstrous, 260-page PDF crammed full of art, writing, and exclusive interviews.
Check out the digital zine today on BigCartel!
And, if you ordered a physical copy, check your email for the zine's digital version!
This is it! Your last chance to guarantee yourself a physical copy of SWARM: ANSWERING THE CALL.
A huge thank you to everyone who pre-ordered already. We look forward to sharing this project with you all and supporting the important work of Black and Pink!
GO HARD AND GO HERE

Our exclusive interview sheds light on how he met the band, how he approached shooting this tour, and more.
SWARM: Answering the call features our interview with Mark Beemer, as well as our interviews with Marina Toybina and The My Chemical Romance Archive, in addition to art and writing from over 150 contributors.

what artists dont tell you is that every compliment is actually 100 compliments because they'll go back to re-read it 100 times and it'll make them feel fuzzy all over again every single time
LIVE, LAUGH, LAUNCH! We’re beyond excited to reveal that pre-orders for SWARM: Answering the Call, a new charity zine created by and for fans of My Chemical Romance as a tribute to the band's incredible 2022-23 world tour, are officially OPEN for the month of October!
We have put together a massive project with the help of 127 incredible artists and 35 incredible writers, who created original pieces for all 70 shows on the tour, resulting in a zine that is over 250 pages long. But we didn't stop there. Our exclusive interviews with tour photographer Mark Beemer, costume designer Marina Toybina, and @themcrarchive are our gift to you–and trust us when we say, it’s been hard to keep these a secret.
We've got some incredible merch bundles as well, made with love and a little bit of magic, whether you're hitting the stadium in our clear backpack or manifesting MCR5 with our summoning circle bandana. So what are you waiting for? Share this post, click the link, buy the zine–get up, coward!
For the past few months, the SWARM Zine team has been hard at work editing, designing, and finalizing this incredible fan project for what is sure to be a triumphant launch. It's looking great, and we couldn't be prouder of our contributors and our team.
We'll reveal more soon, but in the meantime we're excited to unveil our cover design! Consider it a preview for what's to come. Keep an eye on our socials for the next few weeks, and get excited.
