Cool cut’n’paste zine from down in Louisiana, one of the states that I believe, until now, that I had never received any material from. Done by a college-age girl, the pasted bits are much better then the others I’ve reviewed lately. The 32 pages provide us with amazingly good reading for the short amount of pages and large amount of visual aids. This zine has an excellent mix of personal…

Wanted #0

This is another zine that I think that I picked up on the free table for UPC. Wanted really has some potential, something that just briefly begins to shine with the pieces that are contained in this issue. The front and back covers of this zine seem really jumbled and without direction, but this is only a diversionary tactic, something to further hide the excellent work inside. Specifically, instructions for…

The Walls Are Alive

This zine is more of a primer for how to do spraypainting without getting in trouble. For being such at Do It Yourself, handcrafted work, the media in which they enclose the methods for making it is really polished. I mean, this piece definitely looks professionally laid out, which is nice for someone trying to find straight-forward instruction, but it leaves me wondering what the impetus for placing the magazine…
