About this Collection

This collection gathers the 1991 comic book adaptation of the classic 1960s British television series The Prisoner, originally published by DC Comics under the Piranha Press imprint. The story follows a former secret agent who, after resigning, is abducted and imprisoned in a mysterious, isolated village where his captors relentlessly seek to uncover the reasons behind his resignation. The volume reprints the six-issue miniseries, featuring a script by Dean Motter and Mark Askwith with art by various creators, capturing the surreal and paranoid atmosphere of the original show.

"Book A: Arrival" kicks off a mysterious journey with a cryptic message from MI-5's Excavations Officer Thomas Drake to retired Divisions Director Mrs. Butterworth, setting the stage for a story steeped in intrigue. Written by Dean Motter and Mark Askwith, with art and inks by Dean Motter, this 1991 issue from Warner Books delivers a sharp, atmospheric start to a narrative that lingers in the shadows. The cover, also by Dean Motter, captures the enigmatic tone with a stark, deliberate style.
