This graphic novel reimagines the world of Wonderland as a place of high-stakes adventure, political intrigue, and epic battles. The story follows Hatter Madigan, a member of the elite bodyguard corps known as the Wonderland Guard, as he embarks on a dangerous mission to protect the true heir to the Wonderland throne. After a brutal coup d'etat, the rightful queen, Alyss Heart, is forced to flee to Victorian England, where she must navigate a completely foreign world while Hatter works tirelessly to find her. Beddor's vivid imagination is on full display in this book, as he creates a Wonderland that is both familiar and entirely new.
