Casey is one of my favorite people to see at a zine fest: he’s a really nice dude and he’s always making something strange and interesting. This year, he debuted “Class of 1989”: a pseudo yearbook featuring pages and pages of slightly off-looking figures. If you know of his work, then you know that he’s a master of using collage to create eldritch characters, and this talent is on full display in “Class of 1989”. Although not as absurdly whimsical as some of his other stuff (he also just came out with prints of a pizza cat riding a hot dog skateboard, and they totally rule), “Class” is Casey at his creepiest: the yearbook photos are only slightly distorted, so on first-glance they seem like a bunch of average faces… just weirdly unsettling. A closer inspection shows that those askew eyes were cut-n-pasted in from another face, like a person half-warped between dimensions. But Casey still infuses the zine with a little dose of humor: the students and faculty listed have some hilariously weird names that made me giggle; my favorites are RudyDale Dimples, Walter ToeFinger, and Vee Van Booven, but Tony Hotdog got the biggest laugh.

If you’re not yet familiar with Casey’s work, go give him a follow on instagram and pick up this zine and others. He’s making some of the consistently coolest work on the zine scene.
