Each to their own, Rik

Of course the Alice version is better. His is genuinely evil, while the Megadeth version is just a cartoon





Anyway, going off topic, Dave Mustaine owes a big debt of gratitude to Alice. Megadeth were the opening act on the "Nightmare Returns" tour, and Dave was going through a very bad time around the late 80's concerning drugs and alcohol. Alice offered some 'fatherly" advice to him which supposedly pretty much 'saved his life". Because of this, Mr. Mustaine likes to refer to Alice as his godfather. It has nothing to do with baptism or religion - more of a guardian kind of a thing.
