Publisher's Synopsis

The fourth instalment of Johnny Ryan's hugely popular sci-fi-prison-planet-gore-fest-slugfest- a-thon serial has also been described as the best and craziest comic Johnny Ryan has made yet. The Vice cartoonist and creator of Angry Youth Comix has outdone himself in his latest volume, in which the antihero, Cannibal F***face, conceives a brainless oafchild' who destroys everything in its path. With its first two instalments already in second printings, Prison Pit is building a solid fan base and stands as an utterly unique comic book that has to be seen to be believed.'

About the Publisher

Fantagraphics Books

Fantagraphics Books

Fantagraphics Books has been a leading proponent of comics as a legitimate form of art and literature since it began publishing the critical trade magazine The Comics Journal in 1976. By the early 1980s, Fantagraphics found itself at the forefront of the burgeoning movement to establish comics as a medium as eloquent and expressive as the more established popular arts of film, literature, poetry, et al. Fantagraphics quickly established a reputation as an advocacy publisher that specialized in seeking out and publishing the kind of innovative work that traditional comics corporations who dealt almost exclusively in super-heroes and fantasy either didn?t know existed or wouldn?t touch: serious, dramatic, historical, journalistic, political, and satirical work by a new generation of alternative cartoonists as well as many artists who gained prominence as part of the seminal underground comix movement of the '60s. Fantagraphics has since gained an international reputation for its literate and audacious editorial standards and its exacting production values.
