A ridiculous quick read. Batman's expressions are hilarious and I thoroughly enjoyed reading this.

It's probably not a Batman classic but for an Alice fan like me it'll be a favorite. Enjoyed both the story and how the style of the artwork created a "through the looking glass" feel in comparison to the other Batman graphic novels I've read.

Couldve been worse. Given what the author was trying to do, it's a very hard concept to nail. I'm a little biased because Mad Hatter is one of my favorite Batman villains, but overall, a good book. My main gripe is the characterizations of Batman, Robin, and Alfred are entirely unlike their regular portrayals. I definitely recommend if you're looking for a quick, weird Batman read!

What the hell did i just read? Obviously the writters were trying to entice a wider market by using Alice in Wonderland??? It wasn't much of a mystery, it wasn't much of a story, it wasn't much of anything really. I hate when the story of Alice in Wonderland is regurgetated as nonsense, if the books were just nonsense they wouldn't still be read today.

The book tried too hard to be edgy/trippy, and I saw nothing about this "Batman" that was true to character. It was just some flat nobody dressed as Batman. And what about when he askes the little girl if she knows what sex is... what the hell?!

The art was a mishmosh, sometimes it was really cool and sometimes it just looked like the illustrator's hand was getting tired.

This book is not for Alice in Wonderland fans, Batman fans, or comic book fans.

This book is more for Alice in Wonderland fans and not as much Batman fans. It was a good story but Batman was so out of character throughout the whole thing. It was still an interesting story
