Statement:
bleck startades 1998. De åtta första numren kopierades och häftades. Dessa nummer är sedan länge slut - du kan inte beställa dem. Sedan nr 1/1999 trycks tidskriften. Nya nummer ges ut med ojämna mellanrum. bleck samarbetar inte med något förlag. Inte ens med Ordfront som det ibland påstås.
