Publisher Description: Prison Pit blends Angry Youth Comix creator Johnny Ryan's fascination with WWE wrestling, grindhouse cinema, first person action video games, Gary Panter's Jimbo comics, and Kentaro Miura's "Berserk" manga into a brutal and often hilarious showcase of violence like no other comic book ever created. Even the lead character's name, which is only one letter away from "Cannibal Duckface" (hint: "Cannibal" is correct) is unprintable. Prison Pit is so deranged and twisted that even the author's plot description, while admirably reflecting the spirit of the book, has to be edited into a sea of asterisks in order to be bearable to normal human beings: "A mysterious new a**hole has descended into the Prison Pit. He's looking for Cannibal F***face and he wants revenge. Revenge for what? Probably for some f***ed up evil s***. But before he can get his hands on the CanMan he's got to battle his way through some pretty vicious motherf***ers. S***'s about to get real." Well, yes, exactly. |
