Skin is a 48-page graphic novel written by Peter Milligan, created and drawn by Brendan McCarthy and colored by Carol Swain. It tells the story of a young skinhead, Martin Atchitson who grew up in 1970s London with thalidomide-related birth defects. Milligan has said the story partially addresses "universal themes of major companies shafting people, and corruption in terms of drugs and mass marketing."[1] Skin was planned to be published in the 2000 AD spin-off magazine Crisis in 1990, but the story's controversial subject matter and explicit language made the publisher, Fleetway, uncomfortable.[citation needed] Printers refused to print it, citing similar reasons. The story remained in limbo until it was published as a graphic novel by Kevin Eastman's Tundra Publishing in 1992 with little controversy. Hardcore band Modern Life Is War based their song "Martin Atchet" on the comic. [edit] References[edit] External links
