This short interview Mark Newgarden made with me with me has come out very nicely:
“I’ve followed Eddie Campbell’s work since first encountering his autobiographically inclined Alec stories in Paul Gravett and Peter Stanbury’s UK-based Escape anthology back in the early 1980s…”

Jack is back — and this time, the blood is red.
For decades, the award-winning graphic novel FROM HELL has welcomed readers into the grandeur and grime of London in the late 1800s. The New York Times-bestselling opus is an achievement the New Yorker dubs “remarkable” and Entertainment Weekly calls “an immense, majestic work about the Jack the Ripper murders, the dark Victorian world they happened in, and the birth of the 20th century.”

Michael Taube has written a review of The Goat Getters for the Washington Times. He writes:
“The Goat Getters” is a scintillating examination of how some legendary cartoonists helped change newspapers and its readership. They marched to the beat of their own drummer, and challenged societal norms and preconceived notions to make America a better country. That’s surely what they would have advised Mr. Trump to do with Jack Johnson’s long-awaited pardon."

Alan Moore and Neil Gaiman have some very nice things to say about Eddie Campbell in a recent interview by David Barnett for the Guardian.
Eddie Campbell is a genius. But don’t take my word for it, take Alan Moore’s. “Eddie’s is a genuine one-off talent, utterly idiosyncratic and personal,” he says. Or perhaps Neil Gaiman’s: “The man’s a genius, there’s an end to it.”

Sarah Hughes has interviewed Audrey and Eddie for i News (inews.co.uk.)
Collaboration can be a tricky business, rife with the possibilities for misunderstandings or battles over two different visions. Throw a new marriage into the mix and surely the potential for argument and falling out is high? “Not at all,” says Audrey Niffenegger, best-selling author of The Time Traveller’s Wife. She has spent the past year working with her new husband, Scottish comics artist and cartoonist, Eddie Campbell on Bizarre Romance, a captivating set of short stories written by her and drawn by him. “In fact, because we haven’t been married long we still had that newly-wed energy, that sense of being besotted with each other, which really helped.”

Michael Cavna recently interviewed Eddie and Audrey for the Washington Post.
When it comes to using creative frameworks, the “Bizarre Romance” authors also thought in terms of music — specifically, the structure of an album.
The anthology’s 13 chapters, which are each very distinct in their visual styles, all “concern themes that I’ve been interested in all my life: love and loss, the ordinary and the fantastic, the relationship between art and daily life,” Niffenegger says. “When we collected them and began to think about how to shape them into a book, we started talking about albums and mix tapes, and how it would be great if each story had art that exactly suited it, like the instrumentation of a song, instead of trying to come up with one style that straitjacketed them all into conformity.Read More
