Zine Review - My Mystery Girl
September 26th 2008 14:07
The FIRST 24 hour zine I’ve had the pleasure of perusing, Mae Undead’s flip over zine is pretty darned cool. The cover of side a (for lack of a better phrase) has a nice big shiny smiling face on it, with lots of nice hand-typed text; Mae’s writing is clear, and concise, she talks about her old distro, her pen pal relationships, and grammar issues. Mae’s split-personality zine is never more evident, when she compares her love for zombies, vampires and the like with her deep ingraining to not disrespect the dead. A nice mix-tape compilation and some zine recommendations round out this side…
SIDE B The darker, zombified Mae speaks with the story of Countess Elsa. Stark, line based drawings follow, with another short regarding a blind woman named Maria who would not die. Mae Undead’s short, one-page stories continue along the dead and dying genre, interspersed with more undead-based line drawings (I favor the three headed-stitched on zombie hybrid, myself). Mae runs the Gimmie Brains Distro and her work can be found there
