Why are there no comments?
This was easily the most disturbing issue of RR released yet. I was squirming where I sat, which drew a lot of looks as I am sitting in an airconditioned Lab…. It made me flinch, rock back and forth, laugh and one ocassion …squeal.
In short, it is insanely awesome and I love it.
Congratulations on releasing my inner Death Note, DCverse and Kuroshitsuji lover. I’m sure the Joker must be insanely proud.
And yeah, I’m probably abusing this space with my excessive use of the word insane, but with all honesty, thats EXACTLY what this issue is: INSANE.
*hugs the entire team*
No, really, this issue is AWE-waitforit-SOME.
The cover art is amazing, and the poetry is definitely some of the best I’ve read in a while- even by RR’s insanely high standards. And I never knew Kanwal could write like that… <3 pretty much petrified but <3
I only have one problem.
There are no comments.
…Why are there no comments?
Here’s a comment, Noor. (Even though mine shouldn’t count)
Insane, this issue sure is; your piece winning the ‘most insane prize’.
What part made you flich?
What made you laugh?
And squeel? Why?
*squeal
Not laughing, more like “omg, so proud! Freaked out but yes proud!!!” wall hysterical …laughing… Yeah.
The flinching would be because of the poetry. It was… Raw? Disturbing, but simultaneously touching because it was honest. Especially Ali’s piece, that was interesting… I’m sorry, I’m at a loss for words and can’t hope to do the writers justice. Understand what you will from my ramblings. And the squealing was at Kanwals piece, I had no idea she could write so well. Oh and it may have been because of the layout for my piece… Yeah… I had no idea it was THAT long. I apologize to whoever had to edit it.
*wala … I meant wala … Stupid apple products wither stupid autocorrect….
Apology accepted =P
hey Noor i guess the readers are busy with exams and stuff which is why they couldn’t take out time to read or comment. It will get better with time, May is a difficult month for most of us =P
and thanks for the hug ^_^
p.s. yeah, how was it disturbing?(i mean, not that the RR team wanted it to be that way =P)
It may have been the graphics and layout… Or the content…
Or both combined.
that leads me to believe that we succeeded in pulling off our theme! =)
I can’t even say thank you
You don’t get to see the darker and the more intense side of this social butterfly in public much. <3 anyway
Brilliant issue this!
Totally loved it! The theme of the whole issue was pretty intense, and dark. Interesting articles, and poetry was mesmerizing too! 
Great job everyone! \o/
A big congratulations to the team for coming up with such a beautiful (and dark) issue. Keep it up folks!
-Peace
Thank you Zeeshan =)
Amazing issue! easily the best so far. I love the graphics and layout! They added more flavour to the magazine even more than my piece of writing!
I am left enchanted by this issue!
@ Noor: Thanks! I try to leave my viewers craving for more
We appreciate your feedback. Save the enchantments, for RR has bigger plans in future. We hope to amaze you with every issue that is to come.
And well, your pieces are always loved by masses who follow the e-zines. Great job!
Thank you!
Keep up the good work! You are setting a high bar for yourselves for the future!
But I am sure you guys will keep on getting better and better!
you bet!
Can’t wait to read more!!!
friggin’ awesome!! simply amazing!
astonishing layout!! m not much of a fan of English poetry, but this issue sure made me read from the very start to the end of the poetry section specially the last poem by Ali. strokes from within by Naiha is stunning!! great work by Zeshan Ahmed. Manto is indeed a legend. Counterpart by kanwal touches deeply. loved the whole issue!! u guys rock!!
the biggest compliment is a non-poetry person reading the entire poetry section ^_^
thankyou! yay!
Naiha, never got a chance to say, kudos to you lady! I only have one word for your work – WOW!
Thanks Iram!
Glad you liked the issue!
Ty, yayy! <3
Thank you!
It means much coming from someone who isn’t fond of poetry!
This one really gives you the goosebumps! And it sure was a page turner *guilty because I have an exam tomorrow* Brilliant job everyone
Thank you Hina. Stay hooked on to RR for better experience because it’s just going to keep getting better and better with all this earnest response you people give. It surely is encouraging. And well, best of luck for your exam!
I’m sure it will
And thanks 
The poetry designs were goth to the core and added sensation to the magazine. Kudos to the designer!
and Naiha Raza, am definitely looking forward to seeing more of your work =D absolutely loved the hunched figure!
Thank you Talha =)
Pretty scary issue :/ But the page layouts and designs were very creative. Keep up!
Thank you and stay hooked on to RR ^^
This is one crazy awesome issue! The images are disturbing (in a good way :p ) and the poetry is breathtaking! Awesome job guys! And to take up one of the words from the magazine itself, this was totally “wicked”!
1:30 am reading your comment, all the weariness wears off! =D Thank you!
Thank you!
Awesome! Probably one of the best so far! Great job you guys
Thank you Sameer
