Allan Moore y Eddie Campbell · Planet · 2021
From hell It's a tough graphic novel., as were the London underworld of the Victorian era, and stark, in the image and likeness of the events it narrates, the murders of prostitutes committed by an anonymous predator known as Jack the Ripper (The ripper) that has survived in the global collective imagination over the centuries. At the height of true crime in fiction, Planet reissued, restored and in full color, This magnum opus by Alan Moore and Eddie Campbell that fictionalizes bloody and mysterious events based on proven facts. That is to say, the story is invented (the identity and motivations of the murderer), but also plausible. And it is because of the tremendous research work carried out by Moore to weave this narrative full of Freemasons., conspiracies in the highest spheres, unspeakable secrets, madness and prostitutes who have a face, context and soul. Purists will stick with the original black and white work, but Jack is back and now the blood is red. S.M.
