Papercutz is known for their publishing of great graphic novels for all ages and types of readers. Their Slices series is styled from the best MAD Magazine satires that incorporates abject silliness and incredibly funny moments. Their new parody, “The Hunger Pains” is the 4th part if their Slices series and features all of your favorite characters from the novel, The Hunger Games… well sort of.

Publisher Terry Nantier said.

“As luck would have it our unauthorized parody graphic novel is available now in bookstores everywhere for fans who just can’t wait. Though not planned, and certainly not part of an overarching marketing strategy, this is the kind of community service Papercutz is famous for.”

“The Hunger Pains” follows young woman, Ratkiss Everspleen beginning on the Day of the Deleting. The heroine volunteers to fight for Ditch 12 in an annual televised battle to the death. Of course her old friend, Peeka Choo, giant blocks of gelatin, highly evolved monkeys, and tin men with chainsaws are some of the obstacles she must battle through until the end.

The series follows their other hit parodies such as “Harry Potty and the Deathly Boring” and “Percy Jerkson and the Ovolactovegetarians.”

Editor-In-Chief Jim Salicrup stated that,

We can’t be more proud of this one. Every page is a rewarding experience, and with a big-budget film adaptation out this week it will find the wider audience it deserves.
