Matt Badham and Barry Renshaw, currently trying to obscure which of them is Number 1 and which is Number 2, have created a summary/introduction to the 60s cult TV series The Prisoner (one of my all-time favourites, although I have no more real idea what it was all about than anyone else, especially that bonkers finale. Still that episode did give us a dwarf butler in a bowler hat holding hands with Patrick McGoohan, skipping happily through 60s London). Being Matt and Baz they’ve delivered their overview of the televisual outings of Number 6 in comics form, posted up on the Electric Sheep site, which has of course posted some other pretty nifty comics style reviews of film and TV as we know:

Wow, I love the Prisoner, and this is a fantastic, artful capsule summarizing it. Great work guys, and thanks for sharing it in the write-up. :)
