Return to Wonderland

The story starts out with a grown-up Alice who has a daughter, Callie. Alice attempts to kill herself and is suffering from her time spent in Wonderland.

The Wonderland of this series is truly an insane place; not humorous insane but seriously, killing-type insane. It is separated from this world by sacrificing innocent children over time. This keeps Wonderland separate from our reality and from pretty much destroying it.

The main focus of this story, though, is Callie and how she ends up in Wonderland. All of the characters are insane versions of the ones from the story, including the red-eyed White Rabbit, the Queen of Hearts, and especially the Chesire Cat, which is basically a full-blown monster, and the caterpillar, which is an even bigger monster.

The story is really amazingly well done in taking something that has established meanings and warping and twisting all those meanings into what becomes a frightening parody of the original. Very well done.
