The 68th Colossive Cartography from Colossive Press is "Hit Escape". A vibrant fold-out zine by the ever-inventive Michelle Kent. She describes her zine as "a little holiday you can carry around in your pocket".

Hit Escape by Michelle Kent

This A6 hand-folded treat bursts with colour, wit, and visual charm. Michelle is an all-round creative genius trapped in a high-pressure job as an office manager for a dynamic and thrusting media company. Who doesn't dream of getting away from it all? Here's a little holiday you can carry in your pocket…

Hit Escape "get me out of here"

It's easy to see how Michelle's daily grind inspired the escapist joy of Hit Escape. This beautifully folded cartography offers a moment of calm, colour, and creativity. It can be yours for just £2. Or better yet, subscribe to Series Twelve for a tenner and receive all six titles as they launch. That's six doses of visual delight, hand-folded and delivered to your door.
