Review - League of Extraordinary Gentlemen Volume 1


Talk about your unique settings! LoEG is an alternate fictional timeline, teaming up turn of the century characters such as Mina Murray (Dracula), Allan Quatermain (King Solomon's Mines), Captain Nemo (20,000 Leagues Under the Sea), The Invisible Man, Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde, and Mycroft Holmes (brother of Sherlock Holmes).  When a mysterious enemy threatens the British Empire, this rag-tag group of misfits is called together to defend it - whether they want to or not.
