Shrouded in mystery, a secret society convenes with the supposed purpose of bringing new leadership to wartime England. One by one, its members are found murdered, the killings oddly but subtly connected by a thread only the Dark Knight can see… The mystery unfolds in BATMAN: THE ORDER OF BEASTS, a 48-page Prestige Format Special painted by Eddie Campbell (From Hell) and co-written by Darren White. Campbell tells the story of a young Batman who must hone his new detective skills while using them to penetrate the veil surrounding the Order of Beasts. Published as part of DC’s Elseworlds imprint.
Painted, published Batman comic art is not common, but this is one of the only mainstream comics illustrated by Eddie Campbell –and only time he ever illustrated Batman.
Eddie Campbell (born 10 August 1955) is a British comics artist and cartoonist. He was the illustrator and publisher of From Hell (written by Alan Moore), and the creator of the semi-autobiographical Alec stories collected in Alec: The Years Have Pants, and Bacchus (a.k.a. Deadface), a wry adventure series about the few Greek gods who have survived to the present day.
Campbell has won almost every award the comics industry bestows, including the Eisner Award, the Harvey Award, the Ignatz Award, the Eagle Award, and the UK Comic Art Award. His published artwork is voraciously collected by a select group of fans and patrons, making available work extremely rare.
