Zenescope Entertainment is reporting that the #1 issue of new comic book title Alice in Wonderland has sold out through Diamond Comic Distributors. Further, the #1 issue has sold through the 19,000 initial printing on the first day of its release. At this time there are no plans to do a second printing of the book, but Zenescope has made the comic book available for digital download immediately through the Comixology and Zenescope Apps and can be purchased there.
Zenescope’s Alice inWonderland is a new mini-series featuring Alice Liddle as she journeys through the insanity-filled realm of Wonderland. Zenescope first visited the mythology of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland back in 2007 with the breakout hit Return To Wonderland. The indie comic book publisher has since released multiple mini-series that re-imagine Lewis Carroll’s classic story as a present day horror and fantasy tale.
“To sell out of a large print run this quickly is stunning.” said Zenescope Editor-in-Chief Ralph Tedesco. “It’s a great feeling to have such a loyal and continually growing fan base that responds so well to our re-imagining of Wonderland. The good news is that there’s more of it to come.”
“We’ve been planning to tell this story for a long time and it seems that our fanshave been patiently waiting for it. It’s awesome to see this kind of response”, says series writer Raven Gregory.
Zenescope’s Alice inWonderland is being written by Raven Gregory and features interior artwork and coloring by Robert Gill and Jason Embury. This first issue features cover art by Artgerm, Ebas, and Nei Ruffino. The first issue has also been released digitally on the same day as the printed version and is available through the Zenescope and Comixology Apps.

Robert Gill and Jason Embury really kill the art in this book. It looks beautiful. I don’t usually care about disney characters but im tempted to pick this up anyway.
It is absolutely beautiful. I’ve been looking forward to this for some time now. Zenescope delivers as usual.
I hate the way Alex looks here. LOVE the Mad Hatter..and does the March Hare remind anyone else of this?:
