The award-winning bestseller From Hell, often ranked among the greatest graphic novels of all time, takes on haunting new dimensions in From Hell: Master Edition, enhanced with impressionistic hues by Eddie Campbell himself. Despite how it might seem, the decision to tell this story in black and white was purely one of economics. What often goes overlooked in Moore’s work are tiny slivers of humanity bravely shining despite them. From Wikipedia: Psychogeography is an exploration of urban environments that emphasizes playfulness and "drifting".

Experientially different from the original, it is a vivid and thought-provoking read for all GPs as long as they possess a suitably hardy constitution. Currently he is working on his very first podcast, working title Tales From Beyond The Page, a series of historical vignettes from the lives of comics creators. This fictional Gull goes about his business with procedural detachment, devoid of consent or dignity.Let's talk about graphic novels – from action-packed adventures to intimate memoirs, from meticulous non-fiction to wild surrealism! He has also written a novel, Voice of the Fire, and performs "workings" (one-off performance art/spoken word pieces) with The Moon and Serpent Grand Egyptian Theatre of Marvels, some of which have been released on CD. His art style is distinguished by the near photo-realism of his human subjects which is often undercut with absurdist humor. The primary crime of the feature film being that what was essentially deep and complex character study of the murderer, the victims and the detective is compacted into run-of-the-mill whodunnit.

I confess that when I first obtained the complete original From Hell, I only read through it partially. Currently Campbell lives between Chicago with his new partner novelist, Audrey Niffenegger and London where his adult daughter from his previous marriage, Hayley Campbell also lives and works as a journalist.My all-time favorite graphic novel … an immense, majestic work about the Jack the Ripper murders, the dark Victorian world they happened in, and the birth of the 20th century. It’s also harder to gloss over the Ripper’s victims namely Mary Kelly and their outfits conveying bright pretty yet faded colors and the slight rose tint of their bodies which is also their trade and often means of survival (though at times, their skin appears faded and drained when worn down by the hardness of their lives.

As with the fully colorized Gull arch it is much harder now to ignore the story of Inspector Abberline or his pale perpetually tired sunken face conveying frustration, rage and despair at his inability to escape the Whitechapel or solve the murders which his own Scotland Yard conspires to keep under wraps.Of course, the abuse of medical knowledge, power and privilege isn’t confined to the actions of caricatured physicians of the past. To counter this new threat, Gull takes on the persona of the infamous Ripper and hunts them down one by one - and with each ungodly deed, Gull succumbs to his own dark desires and eventually madness.
