Alice In Wonderland #1

Zenescope Comics introduces a whole new twist on Alice In Wonderland. Little Alice is led to an opening in an old tree by her grandparents. They insist she enter in and when she does she finds herself in a large cavern with whispering voices encouraging her to proceed. A large White Rabbit stands before her and proceeds to tell her all about her absurd surroundings. She listens and then suddenly she's plunging head-over-heels down a large shaft with the White Rabbit’s taunting voice echoing all about her.

Its voice emanates at first in the unusual surroundings and then to Alice’s surprise from her own mouth. With a sudden plunk she lands and comes face-to-face with the enormous and monstrous Jabberwocky.


She soon learns that the Jabberwocky needs people from the outside world in order to thrive. Alice makes a deal with the creature to return her to her own world and she’ll bring others to feed his craving-as long as no one gets hurt. He agrees and Alice begins to leave by a magic mirror.


But, the Jabberwocky only lets a part of her leave-her sanity. She must remain behind where her other self grows older and remembers only fleeting images of her Wonderland experience.


As the captured Alice attempts to escape over the years she grows into a beautiful woman. When all seems lost the White Rabbit returns, and using a sleeping potion on the Jabberwocky, he frees Alice and they escape only to run into a carnivorous Cheshire Cat and a gigantic Walrus.


Alice In Wonderland #1 from Zenescope piqued my interest from the first panel. The art is luscious with bright vibrant colors and swift moving layouts. This is an Alice for a whole new generation-don’t miss it.
