Yes, you did read that right! Good ol’ Uncle Alice is doing fund raising to do a Horror anthology comic book.<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s going to be a comic book anthology horror series, graphic novel, and, if there is enough of a demand, a television series. All brought to us by and featuring the visionary maestro of shock rock himself, Alice freakin\u2019 Cooper!<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The press release states:<\/h3>\n

“The series will present horror stories that feel as if they were ripped from the very fabric of Alice\u2019s nightmares.\u00a0Through Uncle Alice\u2019s twisted lens, witness a shock-rock, genre-bending take on all things awful and icky. With a tawdry 1970\u2019s grindhouse drive-in movie feel, and a sardonic tone somewhere between the tongue-in-cheek Cabin in the Woods and the exploitative hyper realism of Last House on the Left.”<\/h3>\n

“It\u2019s our intention that every sordid tale Uncle Alice presents will leave the audience screaming\u2026 for more, freaked out, and possibly in need of a shower – just the way you feel after an awesome (is there any other kind?) Alice Cooper concert. Welcome to my nightmare, I hope I didn\u2019t scare you\u2026”<\/h3>\n

A Kickstarted campaign has been created at Kickstarter.com<\/a> (which can be visited HERE<\/a><\/strong>) in an effort to raise $200,000 to publish all twelve comic book issues of ‘Uncle Alice Presents’, along with the compilation graphic novel, and hopefully the television pilot.<\/h3>\n

Also on the kickstarter page is the plots for 7 sample stories that shows what type of stories will be featured in the series and personally I just can’t wait to read them! We’ve also been given a trailer, yes that’s right a trailer, for the comic book series!<\/h3>\n
