The first volume of stories contained within Tales From Wonderland Vol. 1 collects a variety of the one-shots based on the hugely popular Zenescope Wonderland series (which includes Return, Beyond, and Escape From Wonderland). In this volume we learn about many of the various characters that inhabit the world of Wonderland. The stories are written by Joe Brusha, Ralph Tedesco, and Raven Gregory with various artists who contribute to the series.
In this volume we get to see origin of the Queen of Hearts (“Queen of Hearts”), the first Mad hatter (“The Story of the Mad Hatter”), Alice’s original journey into Wonderland (“Alice”), and the origin of Wonderland itself (“The Experiment”). As a bonus this volume also contains the preview issue #0 and first issues of the Beyond Wonderland series (which is the second series in the trilogy following Return to Wonderland and ending with Escape from Wonderland). This volume also contains a collection of the various covers for the one-shots so that fans can see all the different contributions from various artists.
For those readers who have not read the actual series of Wonderland books this is a great stepping on point as it introduces readers to some of the main characters of the universe and even the origin of the Wonderland universe itself. For those who have already read the previous series this is a great way to learn about some of your favorite characters. Be warned that for those of you who have never read this series before these stories are very graphic in nature staying closer to the “Grimm” Fairy tale rather than the Disney version of the characters. This is a very violent series.
