Awesome

I've read lots of alice cooper books. This one is one of the best

Great collaboration

This was my introduction to Neil Gaiman. A wonderful collaborative effort by Alice Cooper and Neil. I actually got the first issue with the Alice Cooper album of the same title. I now have it signed by Neil, I now need to get Alice to sign it.

Alice Cooper stars as....

I've been a fan of Neil Gaiman since his early work of Don't Panic (a book about Douglas Adams' work). Also a fan of the Sandman stuff, etc. You know the drill. This one I half-cringed, thinking it just too good to be true that Neil Gaiman AND Alice Cooper had combined forces, but here ya have it. And it's crazy good. Buy it, read it, love it.

Best Book Ever !!!!!

I am a huge Alice Cooper fan and this is the best book ever,well for me at least.This is a tale about a boy named steven always afriad and the brunt of all the jokes. Until Alice invites steven in a hidden theater. After the first comic we follow steven as Alice trys to steal stevens soul. I recomand this to any Alice fan or Niel Gamien fan. Thank You for Reading my review and I hope it is helpful.

A Tale Worth Telling

Alice Cooper continues to entertain and amaze, even in comic book form.Superb art and story line tie in (by design) with Cooper's "Last Temptation" album, which is now refered to as the first of Alice's three part album series followed most recently by "Brutal Planet" and "DragonTown" albums.I recommend this read for fans of Alice Cooper, comic books and creepy stories of the heart. Not fans of the above? Read "The Last Temptation" and you will be.But please remember, "Nothing's Free!"

Gaimen and Cooper together WOW

This book is wonderful, using his child narrator Gaimen weaves a tale of depth. He shows the childhood fears that at least I had of the unknown. He has a wonderful way with words and phrases, I can hardly believe he is so good.
