'From The Inside' was the first Alice comic, (Marvel Premier 50), released in 1979. It was based on the then current 'From The Inside' album. The second Alice comic was an unofficial one released by Rock and Roll comics which was basically a brief history of Alice in comic form. 'The Last Temptation' album was released with the first of three comic books based on the album's concept. It was written by Alice and Neil Gaimen ('Sandman') and drawn by Mike Zulli with covers by Dave McKean ('Sandman'). The second two issues were originally planned to be released with the second two singles from the album but this never happened. They eventually emerged via normal comic outlets. There are two different covers to issue one. The first features artwork by Zulli and was included with the album. The second featured the album cover art (by McKean) and was available through comic shops. Alice and Neil Gaiman appeared at London's Forbidden Planet' comic shop to sign copies of the comic and do interviews. Unfortunately, due to an almost complete lack of advertisement, It wasn't well attended. Marvel comics also released a trade paperback comprising all three issues of the comic with some additional text and illustrations called 'The Compleat Alice Cooper' (isbn 0-7851-0119-5). There were advertisement for a special version of 'The Compleat Alice Cooper' which was to have a black velvet hardback cover and come with a 'The Last Temptation' CD.. This version was never actually released. Dark Horse Comics also released collected versions of the comics in both hardback and paperback.

Are Tales from the Crypt available as graphic novels? I could look on the net but that would mean pressing keys. Thats what forums are for. |

tales At the time of writing this,theres reprints that were done in 1990's by Gladstone,basically they mirged several different issues together,even these are getting rare,they tend to go for about a fiver each,then theres coffee table book version that starts at the first issue,every book has about six issues in,but these are getting rare and can sell for about £40 upward they were published by Gemstone,so unless some else reprints them soon the reprints will get as rare as the originals |

A bit depressing really. I thought they would be in print in some form or other pretty regularly. |
