The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Vol. 2: Alan Moore, Kevin O'Neill
1 recommendation
"Another great installment of the League from Moore. This time he takes the conceit of using characters from literature to a new level, and uses "War of the World" as the scaffolding or this story. I love the twist of incorporating Dr. Moreau as well. I wish some of the stuff that happens on Mars at the beginning of the story was fleshed out more, as I found it fascinating. The story-telling is qui..."

From Hell Jack The Ripper Charm Bracelet by Hoolala DeLuxe

"Crazy gorgeous one of a kind bracelet chockful of references to a film starring Johnny Depp based on an Alan Moore graphic novel reimagining of the most famous Victorian serial killer of all time? Yeah, I can't touch that kind of rockingness. From the seller's description on etsy: "I have handmade the following charms they include the following: A charm that says La Fee Absinthe; Lots of qual..."

"I know, I promised no more Alan Moore. And certainly no more Batman. But look, c'mon, this one is DIFFERENT. For one thing, it really IS a novel -- a single story, conceived as such, and with all the horrific impact that only a single shot (so to speak) can deliver. And Dave Gibbons, of WATCHMEN and GIVE ME LIBERTY has never EVER been better. Not to mention the complete and utter lack of a 'c..."
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Vol. 1

"No, it's not ALL about Alan Moore, but it's very, very hard to build a "best of" list and not mention him over and over. This is another old idea -- P.J. Farmer among many others has done it in text -- but nobody does it better, from his bleak and alcoholic Challenger to his giddily pornographic Invisible Man...it really is classic stuff."
V for Vendetta

"Forget the movie. It's like highlights of the best scenes, and nothing more. For REAL depth and danger, look inside the g.n. This isn't about revolution; it's about **anarchy**, about no-government vs. ANY government...and with a deft, cold stroke, Moore paints a future England even more bleak than it is today, utterly brought to half-life (as far as it can manage) by David Lloyd's amazing art...."
Watchmen

"Alan Moore is a god. That's all there is to it. He was the first and best to 'explode' the superhero myth by bringing it poetically and painfully into a 'real' world, and the only thing as good as this story is Dave Gibbons' exquisite, precise art. Published as a 12-issue mini, but really, TRULY, a novel, it's the best of its kind, bar none."
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: The Black Dossier
1 recommendation
"By far one of the most graphicly compelling books — comic or otherwise — available today. The number of insets, varied documents, and sly detail that comprise this book make it a must own for anyone who wants to see what a well-designed book should look like. And, of course, it is a brilliantly crafted piece, both in words and images. Kudos to all involved in this."
