Title: Very Disappointing!
Product review: As an avid fan of all things Wonderland and a voracious manga reader I anxiously awaited this volume; I even pre-ordered, something I rarely do. What a disappointment!The story hit most points from the Alice story, yet with none of the charm, wit, adventure or madness of the original. The art also disappoints. Alice looks like a rip-off of Penny from the Inspector Gadget cartoons. The artist doesn't show the faces of the Duchess or the Red Queen in what seems to be either laziness or inability, and not some artistic affectation. For some inexplicable reason the Mad Hatter is a cartoon-version of Jay Leno complete with a huge chin and a goofy grin. Though it is a re-telling of an existing story, I expected originality and got none. This doesn't even rise to the level of mediocrity.Despite my unreasonable need to acquire all things Alice, future volumes of Rod Espinosa's series will not be on my list. What a shame!
