Things are Heating up for Alice

As March draws closer (it's only a month and a half away) more news items relating to Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland are appearing. This latest is a line of Alice-inspired clothing by designer Sue Wong. More info is available here at the Disney Blog.

Publisher Dynamite is releasing a hard cover graphic novel adaptation of Alice in Wonderland due out in February of 2010. Apparently this is an adaptation which tried to stay true to the original Lewis Carroll tale. It is available for pre-order on Amazon. Complete Alice In Wonderland Volume 1: Alice's Adventures

There's Always More Alice. Happy Unbirthday.

There is so much Alice in Wonderland stuff going on that it's getting claustrophobic in here. I just discovered these comics by Tommy Kovac (Click to visit his site). The artwork is really cool, and of course, they're about my favorite topic!!! Picture links go to Amazon.

Wonderland 1

Wonderland 2

Wonderland 3

Wonderland 4

 
Wonderland 5

The 3rd one looks like a crazy machine at first, but then you look closer and it's the hookah-smoking Caterpillar, but he's become a butterfly. Kovac has also released other comics, including one that looks kind of cool called Autumn. Check here for Everything Tommy Kovac

Alice's Furniture and Manga

 

 

I stumbled across this page that has photos of a house from the Big Brother TV show that was decorated with an Alice in Wonderland theme. Looks like they were big into checkerboard patterns, paper lanterns and Bombe Furniture.

Here is a review for Alice 19th by Yu Watase, which is part of a series of Japanese manga comics which are Alice in Wonderland inspired. They appear to be aimed at girl otaku. Looks like you can get these books on Amazon. Check out Alice 19th.

Halloween is Coming

I can hear your groans. "No!" You say. "It is just September!!!" To that I reply, "Don't blame me! These other people are already thinking about costumes. I am your kind messenger." Yes indeed. Here are some instructions on Alice in Wonderland Halloween costumes.

In news related to Tim Burton's Alice 2010, Helena Bonham Carter has been nominated for Best Villain in the 2009 Scream Awards. She was nominated (along with many of her co-stars) for her part in the last Harry Potter movie, in which she plays Bellatrix Lestrange. You can go vote at the Scream Awards link above. Voting closes October 17. Here is everything Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince on Amazon.

Finally, Fangoria online has a review for a trashy Alice in Wonderland comic book. It's a part of a series of wonderland comics by Raven Gregory.

Fast Day is Slow

What we have here is a lack of news about Alice 2010. However, it seems like the sun never sets on Alice in Wonderland. Here are a few new items:

Can we hear a big "Yowsa!" for J. Scott Campbell's Alice in Wonderland cartoon illustration? Here is more by the same artist.

Notes on planning an Alice in Wonderland themed birthday party. Looks good!

I'm not sure if I already linked to this. Sorry if it's a repeat. More information about Alice Returns - the sequel to American McGee's Alice video game.

Speaking of American McGee's Alice Returns, here is more concept art for Alice Returns on SuperPunch.

Last - this is oh so YESTERDAY but it seems that Alice in Wonderland style hairbands are making a comeback.

Monday Alice News

Some real quickies:

Alice in Wonderland hand painted chess set.

Tim Burton, Helena Bonham Carter, and kids at Disneyland.

Not sure what this is. It's a comic book adaption of some sort: John Cassaday's "The Complete Alice In Wonderland" with a cover on which Alice looks kind of like a 16 year old boy.


Last, and most importantly, this woman, Melinda Foster of Rawtenstall, won a national cupcake contest in the U.K. with her Alice in Wonderland themed cupcakes. The winning cupcake? The White Rabbit. Awesome!
