Masiform D is a gen Star Trek: TOS anthology of fiction, art, occasional articles and a bit of Star Wars, Star Trek: TNG and Battlestar Galactica content. It is the fourth title that Poison Pen Press issued. 
Some issues were scanned by Fanac.org.
==Origins of the Zine's Title==
In the first issue, the editors write: "No, it's not a bra zine - not a bra size, either. A reference to the long-running ad series for Maidenform bras. See this blog for some examples: Given the, er, front cover on this one, the confusion is understandable. Look it up in your CONCORDANCE."
"Masiform D" is the antitoxin, a powerful stimulant that could administered via a hypospray, McCoy used on Spock in the episode, "The Apple."

==Some History==
Masiform D is the zine that continued Spockanalia. In the last issue of Spockanalia, the editors wrote: "Spockanalia will be split into two fanzines." 
Boldly Writing says: "These two zines were to be Masiform D with Devra and Debbie Langsam as editors and "Nevertrodden Worlds" with Sherna Comerford Burley as editor. Nevertrodden Worlds never got off the ground."

'Just the place for a Press! I have said it twice That alone should encourage this crew. Just the place for a Press! I have said it thrice, What I tell you in 'PHASE is true.'" -- The piece is a massive in-joke and mentions Paula Block, Ruth Berman, Interphase, Connie Faddis, Jackie Bielowicz, Delta Triad, Jean Lorrah, Full Moon Rising, Kraith, Jacqueline Lichtenberg, Mary Sue, Alternate Universe 4, Eridani Triad, mimeograph machines, the lateness of zines, and many, many other unnamed fannish happenings and subjects.)
