Launched in January 2013, Gonzaï magazine is one of the first French media to jump on the direct-to-fans system. This underground independent title talks about music, cinema, literature, geek and pop culture.

After its suicide at the end of 2022, Gonzaï came back in March 2024 as a newspaper that’s free of adverts – except for false ones. Its purpose? To tell the story of today’s underground culture by revisiting the fundamentals of yesterday’s freepress. This new tabloid periodical, designed by Quentin Hourie, is set in News No. 2 and Etrusco Now and printed in two colors.

The Gonzaï logo is based on Futura. Secondary typefaces used in issue Nº1 include FT88 and Tiny.
