Why it's so great: Remember the days when you could spend hours locked in your room blasting "Baby One More Time," pasting clippings from Tiger Beat and YM into collages? Cheap Thrills, a magazine dedicated entirely to collages, is all about capturing that infantile and reckless teen spirit, featuring fresh cut-and-paste work by Maggie Lee, Peter Sutherland, Panther Club, and Fuck This Life. But don't be fooled by the caricaturesque look of the works––they also touch on the larger themes of reappropriation, reference, and the ready-made. Oh and did I mention the pages unfold into posters? As if the flashback to adolescence weren't good enough, the mag also comes with a patch designed specially by Wes Lang.
