Papercutz Slices #4

Part of Papercutz's cheeky "Slices" line of unauthorized parodies, this 2012 volume takes aim at the dystopian phenomenon with a cover that says it all — a golden medallion-style emblem featuring a comically arrow-riddled figure, flanked by the silhouettes of contestants, all under the boldly stylized title The Hunger Pains. Writer Stefan Petrucha and artist Rick Parker bring their satirical sensibilities to one of the most talked-about franchises of 2012, promising a fun, irreverent spin on survival-games drama.
