Summary: (not to be confused with becoming a successful artist)
Comment: With other great works like Graffiti Kitchen and Alec: the King Canute Crowd, Eddie Campbell's autobiographical works are very refreshing and very unique to the comic book genre. Those that are not familiar with Eddie's works may not like his sketchy drawings but after familiarizing one's self to his works you'll see that his art is a very personal signature and works very well in his books.

In Alec: How to be an Artist, Eddie tells his story of his experiences as a comic book artist. He goes from how he first got into the business to meeting such characters as Alan Moore and also goes into how his personal life was effected: "There will come a phase in your life when you move in and out of flats so fast you're already measuring them up for a nostalgic effect on your way in." This graphic novel gives such an interesting glance at the comic book industry, and Eddie likes to "tell-all" with very personal aspects of his life that you feel very humble to be given the privilege of reading his story.(or maybe I'm just an Eddie-Campbell/ComicBook-Industry fanatic.)
