    <![CDATA[Punk Rock &amp; Trailer Parks conjures up the oppressive insanity of growing up in a small town, the day-to-day weirdness of  the trailer parks tucked away therein, the magic allure of sex and the necessary comforts of friendship, the mystical power of the counter-culture to turn outcasts into heroes and, most of all, the transcendant power of music, specifically the punk rock of the late 1970's which redefined, transported, and ultimately, perhaps, disappointed a generation.]]>

    <![CDATA[&quot;Why? Go ahead. Ask the question. Why a comic book about my teenage friendship with the most notorious serial killer in history? How utterly disgusting! How outrageous! Why would I produce such a thing? The answer is simple. I'm a storyteller. It's what I do. And I had a story to tell. I can't say I didn't struggle with this. That's pretty obvious. I didn't draw the first story in this book until 1996. It took me a full year to complete. The next two stories weren't finished until 2001. That's ten full years after Dahmer's crimes came to light. Eight years after he was beaten to death in a prison Bathroom. If I'm 'Cashing In' on this thing, well I've done it pretty badly. Hell, I wasn't even aware of the tenth anniversary angle... until a newspaper interviewed me on that very topic.&quot; -From inside cover of &quot;My Friend Dahmer&quot;, By the author, Derf. ]]>
