The Complete Alice in Wonderland. Lewis Carroll, Leah Moore, John Reppion, and Erica Awano. 2016. Dynamite Entertainment. 184 pages.
Rating: 3/5
Dynamite's The Complete Alice in Wonderland is a superb reproduction of Lewis Carroll's classic tale. I've just never been a huge fan of his writing. This copy came as part of a bundle that I purchased through Humble Bundle.
For me, the story is too choppy. It jumps from event to event without great transitions. This is something that carries over from the original and is not particularly a fault of this book.
The art is great. I think it really captures the feel of the stories. It is definitely influenced by earlier iterations, but that doesn't detract from the work at all.
There is a short chapter called "The Wasp in the Wig" that was cut from the original publication of Carroll's book, which has been added back in here. It doesn't have a lot of action, but it is a nice little piece.
I highly recommend this adaptation for fans of Carroll's work.
