An historical version of fanfiction, "Slash" has been around since the 1960s. Named for stories featuring two characters interacting (often sexually) as in Kirk/Spock?, these stories were often passed around in feminist fanzines. Nowadays the largest form of fanfic is based on Japanese anime/manga series, followed by American cartoon series and science fiction serials.
