A fantasy Halloween collaboration between Neil Gaiman and Alice Cooper about life, choices, and tempations. A bit too on-the-nose. ( ) I had been familiar with the idea of concept albums, but I'd never read a graphic novel based off of one. I'm a ridiculous Neil Gaiman fan, and was impressed to see that he helped Alice Cooper with the concept of the album. This graphic novel is just the icing on the cake. He pulls off the dark theatre/dark carnival story very well, keeps the preaching to a minimum, and worked with a great artist. I would definitely recommend this one. I have always been intrigued by the character of Alice Cooper (not so much the real person) and Gaiman's interpretation of the American rock and roll icon is spot on. Cooper is at once frightening and enticing through his intimate knowledge of human weakenesses, which makes him a perfectly Gaiman-esque character. no reviews | add a review
