Growing up in Scotland, Eddie Campbell had two ambitions: to be a cowboy and to work in the circus. After neither of those panned out, he shifted his sights to comics, gaining renown for his down-to-earth depictions of the Jack the Ripper slayings in Alan Moore's From Hell.

This summer marks the third partnership between Campbell and First Second, as the publisher releases The Amazing Remarkable Monsieur Leotard in August (it's coauthored by Dan Best). From his home in Australia, Campbell spoke with PW Comics Week by e-mail about Leotard, which is set in the 19th century and follows the bizarre life of a man who stumbles into becoming a trapeze artist for a traveling circus.
