Eddie Campbell is not himself. But these days, who is? It''s meta-fictional mystery and mischief as the award-winning artist of From Hell sets out to find his own imposter. Plus, on the flipside: a deluxe new presentation of The Fate of the Artist, Eddie Campbell''s classic work of graphic meta-memoir! SIDE A: The Second Fake Death of Eddie Campbell, by Eddie Campbell, is a spiritual sequel to his acclaimed graphic novel The Fate of the Artist, in which the author was missing from his own autobiography. Many years later, during an endless Covid lockdown in which everybody wears a mask and needs a haircut, Eddie''s wife is certain that he has been supplanted by an imposter. She hires a detective, the square-jawed Royler Boom, to solve the mystery. What follows -- interspersed with Campbell''s trademark wry anecdotes, dreams, parodic pastiches, and pandemic peccadilloes -- is a thrilling investigation that builds to a car chase and a violent conclusion. The author cunningly passes this off as another piece of autobiography. SIDE B: The Fate of the Artist In an autobiography, the author and the subject are the same person... but now they''ve both gone missing. The Fate of the Artist is a complex weaving of different strains of invention including a mock prose detective story, an imaginary Sunday comic strip, a mock fumetti-style interview with the author''s daughter, intertwined with Campbell''s beloved brand of autobiographical comic storytelling. In this deluxe reissue of a groundbreaking book, the award-winning cartoonist of From Hell and Alec presents a complex, caustic, and fiendishly clever meditation on the lonely life of the artist and the busy life that swirls around him.

A dark comedy about the sex life of a celibate middle-aged man, ''the playwright'', who rather enjoys a quiet moment in the local park. It is a good place to mentally sort his ideas - and is often frequented by pretty young ladies. He has always derived a perverse sense of relief upon receiving news that an old friend has developed prostate cancer - because, statistically, it reduces his own chances of being similarly afflicted. And, to be honest, his prostate needs all the support he can muster.

Alan Moore, a mente responsável pelos clássicos dos quadrinhos Watchmen, V de Vingança e Monstro do Pântano, é mais que o maior nome inglês a trabalhar nos quadrinhos dos Estados Unidos. Em 18 de novembro de 1993, no seu aniversário de quarenta anos, ele anunciou a familiares e amigos que se tornaria um mago. Essa decisão resultou numa série de performances místicas que unem contracultura, música, poesia, pintura, psicogeografia, iluminação individual e crítica à sociedade. Apresentadas uma única vez, com o próprio Moore à frente das performances e com acompanhamento musical inédito, duas delas chamaram a atenção de Eddie Campbell, com quem Moore trabalhou mais de dez anos no clássico Do Inferno. Palavras, Magias e Serpentes, obra que a DarkSide® Books traz pela primeira vez ao Brasil, reúne a quadrinização dessas performances – “A Membrana Fetal” e “Serpentes & Escadas” –, adaptadas por Eddie Campbell a partir do texto de Moore. Além delas, o volume apresenta ao público brasileiro uma longa e detalhada entrevista em que Moore e Campbell conversam sobre o percurso de Moore pela magia, sua relação com o Deus Serpente, suas performances mágicas, misticismo e imaginação e, claro, histórias em quadrinhos. Completam a edição um posfácio sobre o conceito de Magia defendido por Moore, escrito pelo professor e escritor Enéias Tavares, que assina a tradução ao lado de Andrio Santos, e um caderno de esboços de Campbell que revelam os bastidores do seu processo criativo para uma poderosa sequência de “Serpentes & Escadas”. As duas obras entrecruzam um componente biográfico raro na obra de Moore com ousadia poética e gráfica, aproximando em sua trama ciência, história e magia de uma forma que apenas Alan Moore seria capaz de imaginar. Por sua vez, a arte de Campbell varia entre o fotográfico e o alusivo de forma a não apenas registrar a dimensão visual das respectivas performances como também a convidar o leitor a empreender suas próprias jornadas – biográficas, geográficas ou místicas. Palavras, Magias e Serpentes é um registro poético e visual da mente de Alan Moore e do talento narrativo e gráfico de Eddie Campbell, resultando num volume que aproxima magia e arte, imaginação e intelecto, passado e presente, geografia, psicologia e filosofia. Em resumo, uma obra que convida leitores e leitoras a explorar os caminhos da mente em busca de arte, sentido e sacralidade, elementos que podem ser encontrados nas casas de nossas ruas, nas praças de nossos bairros, nos livros que dispomos diante dos nossos olhos ou nas memórias que encerramos dentro de nossos mágicos espaços mentais.
