It includes the original League's formation and their subsequent adventure against a Martian invasion, presented in a single hardcover volume with supplementary material.
"1: Empire Dreams" from The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: The Jubilee Edition (2019) delivers a thrilling aerial showdown as the League, aboard the airship Victoria, confronts Moriarty’s assault on Limehouse. With Nemo and Mr. Hyde battling aboard the ship and Miss Murray and Quatermain working to disable the cavorite, the stakes rise as Mycroft Holmes formally enlists the team—only for the sky to erupt in fire. Written by Alan Moore and illustrated with dynamic precision by Kevin O'Neill, with colors by Benedict Dimagmaliw and letters by Bill Oakley, the cover by Kevin O'Neill captures the chaos in bold, striking detail.
In "2: Ghosts & Miracles," Wilhelmina Murray, Allan Quatermain, and Captain Nemo pursue a dangerous trail of secrets and shadows, culminating in a tense mission to Miss Coote's Academy for Wayward Gentlewomen. There, they confront the elusive Hawley Griffin, whose invisibility hides more than just a physical form—something far older, and far stranger, stirs beneath the surface.
In a tale woven with ancient secrets and steampunk wonder, 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 through hidden tunnels to a forgotten airship of breathtaking design. Meanwhile, Dr. Jekyll and Hawley Griffin search for Ho Ling, only to cross paths with the enigmatic Doctor, whose presence adds another layer to the mystery unfolding beneath the surface.
When Allan Quatermain secures the cavorite during a high-stakes diversion by Edward Hyde, the team must flee the Doctor’s relentless guards through a collapsing tunnel. With Mina Murray’s quick thinking and the device’s power, they make a desperate escape to the surface of the Thames—only to face new dangers as the cavorite’s true purpose unfolds. Campion Bond soon delivers the artifact to James Moriarty, setting in motion a plan far larger than any of them anticipated.
In "5: Some Deep, Organizing Power...", Hawley Griffin races against time to stop James Moriarty, who's hijacking the power of cavorite to fuel a deadly airship with plans to destroy Dr. Henry Jekyll, Limehouse, and possibly Captain Nemo’s Nautilus. With the stakes rising and old alliances fraying, the fate of the League hangs in the balance as secrets from the past threaten to unravel everything.
In "6: The Day of Be-With-Us," the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen faces a crisis when James Moriarty unleashes chaos over Limehouse, forcing the team to take to the skies in the balloon Victoria. With Captain Nemo and Mr. Hyde engaging Moriarty’s forces, Wilhelmina Murray and Allan Quatermain work to disarm the ship’s cavorite, while the Doctor’s aerial reinforcements scatter across the clouds. As Mycroft Holmes formally binds the League to his service, a sudden blast from above signals a new threat—just as the storm begins to break.
