Issue 43 - From Hell

Issue 43! It's been a while since we talked about an Alan Moore book... so we had to go big! From Hell is a tediously researched historical fiction that aims to put a cohesive narrative around the Whitechapel Murders of 1888, better known as the Jack the Ripper killings. This episode also marks the first appearance of Erica Livingston on the show! Erica and Nick dive into this tome and talk about everything from Pagan Architecture to Royal Inbreeding... it's a fun, easy-listening experience. All-in-all, Alan Moore and Eddie Campbell's work on this book is something to behold. It gives us an enthralling story while also having plenty to say about every subject it tackles. Whether it be the corruption of government institutions, the development of modern society, or just the hardships of everyday people in an unjust world; From Hell delivers. So grab your best black bonnet and pray your carriage driver doesn't have a knife. We are going to Hell.
