Zine Review: An Annotated Copy Of The Anti-Zine: Why No One Should Get Involved With Zines

An Annotated Copy Of The Anti-Zine: Why No One Should Get Involved With Zines

‘An Annotated Copy Of The Anti-Zine: Why No One Should Get Involved With Zines’ is an A7, full-colour, fully annotated funny mini-zine about the intense side of become a zinemaker.

It’s not a secret that I am an absolute stationery nerd, so a funny mini-zine that involves highlights, annotations, and even a colour code? Yes, yes, and please tell me there is another one on the way.

Speaking of the colour code, ‘An Annotated Copy Of The Anti-Zine’ opens right up with the colour key for all your highlight-loving pleasure. From ‘LOLZ’ to ‘The feels’, I had my first giggle just looking at the categories. From there we launch into a disclaimer (very good to know that no zines were harmed in the making of this zine) followed by a quote from Sierra’s mom.

After that, we jump into the intensity of inspiration, some frustrations from zinemaking (personally, I have become pretty good at writing in the dark for those 3AM bursts of inspiration that wake me up), as well as Six Reasons You May Come To Hate Zines.

“You may commence battle frequently with your computer and printer.” – Having recently had a thorough argument with my printer, I laughed out loud at this one. The frustration is truly real.

‘An Annotated Copy Of The Anti-Zine’ has nice big (thank you!) typewriter print, and every page has highlights as well as annotations in blue. The whole zine is colourful, fun, and has that beautiful mix of reality and ‘it’s funny because it’s true’ humour that made it land perfectly for me.

If you see this zine, definitely get it. You’ll definitely resonate with it – and you might even be inspired to make your own ‘Anti-Zine’.

Zine Review: Horrible Horoscopes

Horrible Horoscopes (Honestly, They’re Just Awful)
Ashlea Bechaz
16 pages
https://linktr.ee/ashleabechaz

‘Horrible Horoscopes (Honestly, They’re Just Awful)’ is an A6 full-colour zine of illustrated horoscopes for every sign of standard western astrology.

Sometimes I see a zine, and I just know that I need it as a part of my zine collection. This is absolutely one of those zines. A mix of art, astrology, and sarcasm? Yes please.

‘Horrible Horoscopes’ opens with what is the funniest foreword I have ever read:

“While these astrology readings may seem shockingly accurate, pls rest assured that they are true, especially yours. (I’m looking at you Aquarius)”

You pretty much pick up the tone from that alone, and we get right into the horoscopes. Each sign – starting with Aquarius – gets its own page. Much like the ‘frame’ on the cover, each piece of sign art has its own unique frame with three different qualities about that sign below it.

Ashlea’s art style reminds me of the Rider-Waite tarot but not quite so busy and a lot less yellow. They’re beautiful with a lot of oranges and blues on the cream paper it’s printed on. The ‘tarot’ feel the art gives me makes the sarcasm land even more ‘deadpan’, which I think is great.

I had so much fun reading all of these. I’m a Leo, so the ‘Is the leader of your local cult’ made me laugh out loud. I also know a lot of Capricorns, so ‘Changes the sheets never’ gave me a giggle too.

‘Horrible Horoscopes’ is a fun zine with excellent art, so definitely check it out.
