2. Is “Prisoner on the Hell Planet” biographical or autobiographical? Whose biography is it? Describe some of the feelings the author felt after his mother’s suicide.

The short interruption of "Prisoner on the Hell Planet" comprises an additional narrative voice in Maus, making a total of four voices (past, present, meta, and "prisoner"). In "Prisoner on the Hell Planet" Art feels an unbearable sense of guilt over his mother's suicide, facilitated by the fact that his relatives seem to blame him as well. His cardinal sin, he feels, is one of neglect. This would represent Art Spiegelman's own biography.
