Ziz was a 2-page, single issue apazine published by Ken and Pamela Bulmer for OMPA #2, and dated December 1954. Written as a conversation between Ken and Pamela, it primarily satirizes the (facetious) claim by Walt Willis that Ken was 'riding on a woman's apron strings', and presents Pamela as doing all the fan-ed work of the couple while Ken was busy with the traditional wife's activities. The issues mentions several fans, and Femizine, for which Pamela was busy writing a column.

In Scottishe #3 (March 1955), Ethel Lindsay commented, 'That's the stuff, Pamela, I'll back you every time' while John Brunner in Pogrom #1 (also March 1955) only said, 'This ziz literally true.'
