☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis omnibus collects the first two story arcs of Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill's genre-mashing series, bringing together classic literary characters like Mina Harker, Allan Quatermain, and Captain Nemo as a Victorian-era superhero team. It includes the original six-issue miniseries and its sequel, along with supplementary material from the series' early years. Published by DC under its America's Best Comics imprint, this volume presents the complete narrative of the League's formation and their initial adventures against threats like Professor Moriarty and the Martians from The War of the Worlds.
In "1: Empire Dreams," the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen faces a skyward siege as Moriarty unleashes chaos over Limehouse, forcing the team to take to the air in the balloon Victoria. With Nemo and Mr. Hyde battling Moriarty’s forces on board and Miss Murray alongside Quatermain working to disarm the ship’s cavorite core, the stakes rise as the League’s mission takes a dramatic turn. Written by Alan Moore and illustrated with precision by Kevin O'Neill—whose distinctive art defines the cover and interior—this omnibus edition captures a pivotal moment in the League’s storied campaign.
In "2: Ghosts & Miracles," Wilhelmina Murray, Allan Quatermain, and Captain Nemo pursue a dangerous trail that leads them from the shadows of London to the secluded halls of Miss Coote's Academy for Wayward Gentlewomen. There, they confront a new threat—Hawley Griffin, the elusive invisible man—while the past and the impossible begin to blur in ways no one expected.
In the shadowed corridors of a forgotten chunnel, Wilhelmina Murray and Allan Quatermain follow a cryptic clue from Quong Lee—“the waters lap beneath the heavenly bridge. The dragon sleeps below the waters”—leading them to a hidden, forgotten aircraft. Meanwhile, Dr. Henry Jekyll and Hawley Griffin track down the mysterious Doctor, while Quong Lee’s words echo through the tunnels, hinting at ancient secrets buried beneath the city.
In the shadowed depths beneath the Thames, a desperate race unfolds as Allan Quatermain, aided by the cunning of Wilhelmina Murray and the chaos of Edward Hyde, fights to secure the cavorite amid the Doctor’s relentless guards. With the weight of the city above and time running out, the team must trust in a fragile plan that hinges on a single device and the courage of those who dare to rise from the dark.
In "5: Some Deep, Organizing Power...", Hawley Griffin races against time to stop James Moriarty from unleashing a terrifying new weapon aboard his airship—using cavorite to target Dr. Henry Jekyll, Limehouse, and Captain Nemo. With the fate of the League hanging in the balance, old alliances fray as secrets from the past resurface.
In "6: The Day of Be-With-Us," the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen takes to the skies in the balloon Victoria to confront James Moriarty’s aerial assault on Limehouse. As Captain Nemo and Mr. Hyde battle Moriarty’s forces, Wilhelmina Murray and Allan Quatermain work to disarm the ship’s cavorite core, all while The Doctor’s fleet of kites and balloons swarms the heavens. With Mycroft Holmes sealing the League’s future and a storm of fire erupting from above, the fate of the mission hangs in the balance.
