In 1989 after notable releases of Watchmen, The Killing Joke, and wrapping up V for Vendetta , one of the great comic book writers of all time Alan Moore sets to tell another gripping tale based on the Whitechapel murderers during the 1800s around the question: Who is Jack the Ripper?
With illustrations of talented Eddie Campbell, this Eisner Winning graphic novel explores circumstances around the time period of when these tragedies occurred, who, or whom could have been involved in the crimes, and an idea of what the world was like in East End of London.
Every angle, motive and perspective is explored by a core cast of characters. Alan Moore himself thoroughly researched the historical manuscripts with notes of the Victorian Era, which are included in the collected editions. It is a stunning tale that is recommended for fans of true crime, horror, historical fiction, and fans of this creative team to truly appreciate all that From Hell has to offer. The graphic novel can be read in the hardcover Master Edition with full colors or the black/white tradition paperback copies as well.
