The X-Files’ Joe Harris takes on The Prince of Darkness – Alice Cooper in his FIRST ongoing comic series! Rock n’ roll legend Alice Cooper was never a stranger to the mystic and the macabre. His stage shows were the stuff of legend, featuring snakes and pyrotechnics and the invocation of dark themes and darker forces. But while he was a legend in the waking world, few knew his role as “The Lord of Nightmares” beyond it, where he watched over us while we dreamed, and delivered horrors unto the deserving. Only someone took it all away from him, cast him out of his realm and locked him away… until now. And if he’s going to reclaim his dark throne, he’s going to need all the help he can get!

Dynamite has announcesd that The Last Temptation, the groundbreaking graphic novel collaboration between bestselling author Neil Gaiman and rock music icon Alice Cooper with art by Michael Zulli, will return in a fully-remastered Deluxe Edition printing. The new edition celebrates the 20th anniversary of the project, the first printing since its original Marvel run to be presented in color. Dynamite makes this announcement to coincide with Neil Gaiman’s appearance this week as a Special Guest at San Diego Comic-Con International 2013.
The Last Temptation graphic novel was originally released in three serialized installments in 1994 as a companion to the Alice Cooper album of the same name. In the story, a boy named Steven (who was previously introduced as a character from Cooper’s album, Welcome to My Nightmare) is tempted by an enigmatic showman — based on Cooper — to join his carnival. Written by Neil Gaiman and illustrated by Michael Zulli, The Last Temptation was originally published by Marvel Comics, but has been out of print for over a decade.
A man who knows how to tell a story through art, legendary rocker Alice Cooper is teaming up with Dynamite for an upcoming comic book series, slated for release in 2014.
Renowned as the “Godfather of Shock Rock”, Alice Cooper is an icon of rock ‘n roll with a career spanning five decades. A Detroit native, Cooper has released 26 albums over the course of his illustrious career, and maintains a reputation as one of the most theatrical live performers in history, often incorporating elaborate horror movie and vaudeville sensibilities into his stage shows. In addition to his musical career, he is an avid golfer, film actor, restaurateur, and radio DJ.
Alice Cooper has been a subject and contributor to comic books over the years, first appearing as the centerpiece of a 1972 issue of Marvel Premiere. As a companion to his 1994 concept album The Last Temptation, Cooper released a graphic novel of the same name, written by bestselling and critically acclaimed author Neil Gaiman and illustrated by Michael Zulli. Cooper also contributed a story in the Treehouse of Horror comic in 1995, a Halloween-themed spin-off from The Simpsons.
