Prick was an American monthly tattoo and piercing industry magazine,[2][3] founded by Charles D. Brank.[4] The magazine was launched in September 2000[5] as a free newsprint magazine supported by advertising.[2][3] It also had sections on music, movies, books and other products relevant to the tattoo and piercing world. The final issue of Prick was published in the fall of 2012; by 2013, the magazine had been put up for sale and its website had been paywalled.[3]
The magazine formerly held an annual party, the St. Pat-Prick's Birthday Bash, at The EARL in Atlanta, Georgia to celebrate Brank's birthday on March 17.[6][7]
