Bitch Planet Volume 1: Extraordinary Machine

by Kelly Sue DeConnick

“...one of the
most unique and subversive artifacts of pop culture in recent memory.” -
Salon.com

"Seldom do comics burst
onto the scene and shatter our worldview by being entirely poignant, raw, and
captivating - but then, most comics aren't Bitch Panet." -
Entertainment Weekly

Eisner
Award-nominated writer Kelly Sue DeConnick (Pretty Deadly, Captain
Marvel
) and Valentine De Landro (X-Factor) team up to bring you the
premiere volume of Bitch Planet, a deliciously vicious riff on
women-in-prison sci-fi exploitation.

In
a future just a few years down the road in the wrong direction, a woman's
failure to comply with her patriarchal overlords will result in exile to the
meanest penal planet in the galaxy. When the newest crop of fresh femmes arrive,
can they work together to stay alive or will hidden agendas, crooked guards, and
the deadliest sport on (or off!) Earth take them to their
maker?
