SNAPSHOT
Alice first visited Wonderland as a child. Now grown up, it’s become her only escape from a cold, harsh world that feels even less real—a distant family, a tormented lover, and a father with secrets he’ll do anything to protect. But in order to return to her fantasy, Alice will need something much stronger than mushrooms. . . 

Cursed with a growing addiction, Alice is forced into the twisted underbelly of London and pulled ever further from reality. Is her obsession with Wonderland truly a respite, or a one-way ticket to the dreaded… ASYLUM?

Witness Wonderland brought to life as never before by superstar artist and writer Dan Panosian (An Unkindness of Ravens, Canary), artist Giorgio Spalletta (Red Sonja: Black, White, Red), and colorist Fabiana Mascolo, set against a vibrant but menacing Victorian London, as figures from Alice’s past adventures re-emerge in surprising new ways!  (synopsis courtesy BOOM!

To be fair, Alice Ever After is not technically an upcoming read.

The five-part series was released back in April 2022, offering an imaginatively twisted look at what might have happened to Alice upon her return from Wonderland.

It was a fairly trippy experience and that can’t help but affect you and so it does Alice who ends not dealing all that well with the real world upon her return.

The comic series asks whether returning to Wonderland will be her salvation or a one-way ticket to even more suffering in the dreaded asylum.

Somehow this slipped past me last year but will all the issues in one handy volume, now’s the time to see what happened to Alice after the White Rabbit, the Mad Hatter and the ingesting of all those weird substances …
