Alien Mind - featuring Jim Morrison

Tuesday, August 22, 2006

Here´s another Doors comic book, a science fiction story printed in 1991 by Rock Fantasy - Alien Mind - featuring Jim Morrison. There are no credits in the comic book.

In the forewords by "Michael" (maybe he´s the editor!) he explains the Rock Fantasy series:

"Rock has often taken the attributes of Science Fiction
or Fantasy to fire the imagination of it´s audience. We
thought it might be fun to turn the tables and combine
Rock´n Roll with Fantasy/ Science Fiction for the printed
page. So we´ve created an imaginary universe and peopled
it with characters in the guise of some of our favorite
rock stars."

The front cover by Nik:
Here is how the story begins (click to enlarge):
Inside the ship Jim is told "Don´t be alarmed, we will not harm you, we´ve come very far in need of the magic you posses!", he is taken to the ship´s central room. They drug him there but he doesn´t notice and from then on he starts thinking everything is normal and seems not to mind he is between weird aliens. They show him the ship´s nightlife to distract him...

The ship travels through the galaxy to a faraway planet where they are going to make Jim perform to a huge alien crowd in a large stadium. They get there and Jim starts the concert with "People are Strange"! BUT...in the control room where they are monitoring Jim´s mind the aliens see it´s going out of control! "There is too much psychic feedback! the system can´t handle..." and...BOOM! their mind control system explodes, Jim he regains conciousness and finally sees he is surrounded by aliens.

Jim makes his scape out of the stadium and jumps into a space ship landed nearby...well, I don´t want to take away the surprise in the end of the story...But I´ll tell you it doesn´t end there, they promess a another follow up comic book featuring Jim, Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendryx titled "The great gig in the sky"!

I think you still can find this comic through Ebay: www.ebay.com
