ESCAPE MAGAZINE ON FACEBOOK

Posted: July 11, 2010

The hugely influential Escape Magazine, co-edited by Paul Gravett and Peter Stanbury, published 19 issues between 1983 and 1989 - back when specs were big! The photo above was taken at London’s ICA in Summer 1987 during an Escape Workshop, which was part of the art-and-comics exhibition Comic Iconoclasm. Pictured above is a young Paul Gravett (r) with UK artist Ed Pinsent, whose own site features his visionary comics and loads of assorted Fast Fiction-era small press covers.
