The other reviews are right with this one... A forced attempt at mixing Batman and Alice in Wonderland together just for the hell of it.. Alice in Wonderland isn't THAT COOL.Art wasn't bad though, at times...
Typical Alice in Wonderland story with Sam Kieth art. Not particularly creative use of imagery (Why Kieth, WHY?!), through some splash pages were well done. Robin looked all wrong. Some of it made me laugh out loud though.
The story was excellently written, with amazing action sequences and plenty of vivid descriptions. The only problems with it were the profanity--although I was expecting some, I got quite a bit more than that--and some occasional sexual content.
