This was followed by two further collections, ''Love and Beerglasses'' (1985) and ''Doggie in the Window'' (1986). While in Australia (where he moved in 1986), Campbell published a number of comics with the new British publisher Harrier Comics.

''Alec: How To Be An Artist'' (2000), a study of the art form and of Campbell's own artistic journey, and ''After The Snooter'' (2002), in which Campbell appears to have laid Alec McGarry to rest.

''The Fate of the Artist'', in which Campbell's family and friends investigate his disappearance, undermining the image of himself he had presented in his previous autobiographical works, was published by First Second Books in 2006. ''Alec: How to Be an Artist'' was nominated for the
