The Book of Revelation is signed by 'John', who said that he was writing from the island of Patmos, and because of the coincidence of names has long been associated with the disciple John. However modern scholars say that the autohr could not really have been the author of John's Gospel, nor could he have been the disciple John. To distinguish him as a separate person, he now tends to be called John of Patmos, and there is no reason to believe that he was ever a prisoner.
Becuae of the traditional association of Revelation with the disciple John, the early Christians developed a legend that got John on the island of Patmos, thereby 'proving' that he really was the author of Revelation. The belief developed that the Romans had boiled John in oil, but he miraculously survived this and other attempts to kill him. Although they were unable to harm John, the Romans were still somehow able to take him by force as a prisoner to Patmos. This is a wonderful legend, but has no historical basis. The otherwise unknown author, John of Patmos, was not the disciple John and was not a prisoner.
