22 inches? Jeez. Isn’t Cooper a part owner of the Suns? I like Cooper. Don’t agree with his politics but he’s not a dick.

After he took the band’s name as his own legal name (and has had a much more commercially successful career since), he made sure the original band members, his friends, were taken care of:

The ownership of the Alice Cooper name is an example of the value of a single copyright or trademark. Since “Alice Cooper” was originally the name of the band, and not the lead singer (a la Pink Floyd, Uriah Heep, Jethro Tull, Amy Meredith, etc.), and it was owned by the band as whole, Cooper continues to pay a yearly royalty to his original bandmates for the right to use the name.
