Alice au royaume de Cœur #3

Volume 3 of *Alice au Royaume de Cœur* brings together the wonderfully eccentric cast of this French-published manga adaptation, and the cover delivers a vibrant ensemble scene: Alice herself, golden-haired and wide-eyed in her blue dress, is flanked by three of Wonderland's most distinctive residents — a pink-haired figure looming above, a dark-haired young man at her side, and a smiling, brown-haired character at the front. Set against a rich gold-and-blue diamond-patterned backdrop framed by ornate gothic lettering, the composition radiates the playful, slightly chaotic energy this series is known for. With the creative pairing of QuinRose and Soumei Hoshino guiding the story, 2010 readers were in for another lively chapter of Alice's twisted, romance-tinged adventure through a Wonderland very much its own.
