Portals is a gen Doctor Who and Blake's 7 anthology.
In 2006, the zine publisher reminisced about the zine: "Portals was a multimedia zine -- meaning that it focused on more than one show -- and the first issue was produced on a typewriter, if you can believe it. (I think I had my Commodore 64 by that point, which would have been 1985, maybe, but not a printer: it was a while before I blew my babysitting money on a -- are you ready for this? -- a daisy-wheel printer.)"
