???? Looking for Bruce: A Journey of Fandom and Obsession Brought to Life through Book Printing for Self-Publishers ????

“Looking for Bruce” is not just a comic book; it’s a heartfelt ode to Bruce Springsteen, an exploration of fandom, and a testament to the power of dreams and music. This 70-page full-colour comic takes readers on a road trip through New Jersey, in search of the ‘real’ Bruce. It’s a story about the dangers of placing heroes on pedestals, the joy of daydreaming about escape, and the quest for truth and meaning in a 3-minute pop song.

A Love Letter to Bruce Springsteen, Beautifully Printed and Bound

At Ex Why Zed, we’re passionate about helping creators bring their visions to life. For “Looking for Bruce”, we used our expertise in book printing for self-publishers to create a product that truly reflected Holly’s passion and creativity.

The book was printed as an A5, perfect for a comfortable reading experience. The 4pp cover was printed onto 200gsm Uncoated with a Matt Lamination to the outer, providing a tactile and visually appealing finish. The 96pp text was printed onto 90gsm Uncoated, ensuring a high-quality feel and excellent print clarity. The book was then trimmed, collated, and perfect bound, resulting in a professional and durable finish.

The Power of Print: A Tangible Tribute to a Music Legend ????

In the digital age, there’s something incredibly powerful about a tangible, printed book. “Looking for Bruce” is a testament to this power. It’s a physical manifestation of Holly’s love for Bruce Springsteen, her reflections on fandom, and her personal journey of obsession and pilgrimage.

Through our zine printing services, we were able to bring this unique story to life. The result is a beautiful, high-quality book that readers can hold, touch, and treasure.

Ex Why Zed makes self publishing a truly pleasurable experience!
Brilliant communication from start to finish. Mike had endless patience for the many questions we asked. The guides provided were easy to follow and super helpful (the video guides are a must watch too). Our order of hardback illustrated children's books was delivered expertly packaged and on time. As for the finished product itself - stunning - a real joy to finally hold, beautifully made and perfectly printed! We couldn't have asked for more. Well, we did - we instantly placed an order for paperback children's colouring books too, which we are equally as happy with. Look forward to working with Ex Why Zed again in the future.
