FROM HELL occupies a monumental place in the history of the graphic
novel: a Victorian masterpiece of murder and madness which has won
numerous awards, spawned a major Hollywood film, and remained a favorite
of readers around the world for over two decades. Now, Top Shelf
Productions and Knockabout Comics present THE FROM HELL COMPANION, an
astonishing selection of Alan Moore's original scripts and sketches for
the landmark graphic novel, with copious annotations, commentary, and
illustrations by Eddie Campbell. Here for the first time are a set of
pages, including some of Moore's greatest writing, which have never been
seen by anyone except his collaborator. Joining them are Campbell's
first-hand accounts of the project's decade-long development, complete
with photos, anecdotes, disagreements, and wry confessions. Arranged in
narrative order, these perspectives form a fascinating mosaic, an
opportunity to read FROM HELL with fresh eyes, and a tour inside the
minds of two giants of their field.
