Rocker Alice Cooper is all set to make a comeback to comic book world.
Dynamite Entertainment has announced a new comic titled 'Alice Cooper #1' , reported Digital Spy.
'X-Files' writer Joe Harris will be joined by artist Eman Casallos in the series, which imagines Cooper as the protector of mankind's dreams.
"Artistically, for me there is hardly a better medium," Cooper said.
"There is so much you can do in the form of a comic that we'd never been able to do onstage. It's just a different way of storytelling, and it really has almost limitless possibilities.
"We're looking forward to stretching the existing boundaries of the comic medium again. We have new stories to tell, but we'll do it with the same theatrical, sinister sensibility that comes with the name 'Alice Cooper'. This is just the beginning. Welcome to my new nightmares!," he added.
Cooper, 66, featured in Marvel Premiere in the 1970s, as well as the Neil Gaiman-written 1990s miniseries 'Alice Cooper: The Last Temptation'.
'Alice Cooper #1' will be released in September.
