The divide between Comic-Con superheroes and alternative comics isn't all that big. Dark Knight vs. Jimmy Corrigan? Why choose only one? If a rift exists, though, few artists bridge it better than Eddie Campbell, most famous for illustrating the epic Bacchus series and the Jack the Ripper classic From Hell. Campbell stops by for a signing of his latest graphic novel, The Amazing Remarkable Monsieur Leotard, featuring a phantasmagoric style, a circus backdrop, and a litany of in-jokes.
