"This graphic novel adaptation embraces everything Prisoner and envelopes readers in the nostalgia and delirium of the original broadcast... This mesmerizing work of graphic fiction delivers sublime art by veteran creator Motter (Classics IllustratedBatman: Black & White) and immersive storytelling from both Motter and Askwith (Batman; Justice League International).  An excellent choice for any collection."  - Library Journal Starred Review

"Original, dramatic, inherently fascinating...a wonderful treat for the legions of fans of "The Prisoner" television show and will prove to be an immediate and enduringly popular addition to community library Graphic Novel collections." -- Midwest Book Review

"A welcome and timely addition to Titan’s library of Prisoner content that feels as contemporary and relevant now as it did 30 years ago. If you don’t already own it, this handsome edition is a great release. 9/10" - SciFi Bulletin
