When space outlaw Barbarella's spaceship breaks down, she finds herself trapped on the planet, Lythion. There, she has a series of adventurous, and erotic, encounters with a variety of beings, from robots to angels. In 1962, Barbarella predicted the sexual revolution as the original 'erotic comic book' and was the first truly emancipated female comic book character. Now, this long-lost classic is once again available to a brand new generation, and told in a wholly distinctive contemporary voice.
