A film adaptation was released in 2003, also by the name The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. The film stars Sean Connery, who plays Allan Quatermain, and features Captain Nemo, Mina Harker, Rodney Skinner aka An Invisible Man (the film rights could not be secured to The Invisible Man), Dr. Jekyll and Edward Hyde, Dorian Gray, and U.S. Secret Service agent Tom Sawyer. Though Gray and Sawyer were not featured in the comics, a painting of a young man holding a cane with "Dorian Gray" printed under it appears on the cover of Volume I.[11]

It is thought that none of the recalled comics were ever distributed in the US, however, there are conflicting reports that a few may have made it into the DC comics preview packs. What is certain is that a small batch had been shipped to the UK and escaped the destruction.

In the past, a number of copies seemed to have been concentrated with US-based eBay comic shop Kochcom (run by Joe Koch) selling over 10 raw copies in the 2000's plus at least one high end CGC 9.8 graded copy (this suggests there was a US source for these comics). Similarly in the U.K., one collector was known to have bought and CGC graded over 12 copies, including a water damaged issue that graded CGC 2.5 (the worst copy known to exist!).

Kevin O'Neill and Alan Moore's League of Extraordinary Gentlemen was one of those books that was waiting for me when I came back to comics after high school. Two trades full of familiar and unfamiliar characters having adventures. I liked it, though maybe more for the spectacle than the craft. Now, years later, another chapter of LoEG has come to an end in the form of League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: Century: 2009, and I find myself in the opposite position. I'm not too impressed with the story as it rolled out, but it was told in such a skillful way that I can't help but be pleased with the ultimate product. Click through for four examinations of things that Moore & O'Neill did both well and poorly in LoEG: 2009. Spoilers follow, if you've somehow managed to miss the press blitz on 2009.Density

The Century books, 1910, 1969, and 2009 are 80 pages each. That isn't too long, about the length of four regular comics each and a fat graphic novel when taken all together. It feels longer, though. Even setting aside the text pieces, which close out every volume, these stories take a while to read. You can't burn through these comics like you can with normal floppies or even a full trade. You have to sit and take it in at its own pace.

i thought the film was god aweful. The characters where much softer and lamer than their comic equivelents, Tom Sawyer was added to be the Hero of the piece when its supposed to be a british team with no American ties. The storyline was naff compared to any of the comic ones and the casting in parts was lack luster. they would of been better oiff animating the whole thing or making it an 18 and staying true to comics.

"To this day, the character of Gwen Stacy remains a fixture in classic comics lore, while also becoming familiar to new fans of Spider-Man through the revolving door of film reboots for the web-spinner."


I've thought about this a few times, recently. Not to cast aspersions on the age of anyone's childhood media (especially since I notice how creaky mine is becoming, more and more) but Peter Parker was off to college in 1965, three years after his debut, and Gwen Stacey died in 1973. Yet the main achievement of the 21st century film reboots seems to be to keep Peter as a perpetual 15-16 year old kid - and resurrect some facsimile of Gwen in a way that grumpy professor in the featured issue would envy.


I mean, sure, he's been a perpetual twenty-something married to Mary-Jane for longer; but that's kind of my point. I might be overlooking the sheer iconic...ness of early, Ditko-era Spidey (I've been reading some fairly heavy interpretations and opinions of it, here and elsewhere) and the Romita years after, but in the cinema, I kind of miss the Spider-Man that I'm more used to.


Talking about Steve Ditko and John Romita, that's quite a different Gwen Stacey to the one I've caught glimpses of, being thrown from bridges! I wonder how abrupt the change of drawing styles was.

Kevin O'Neill, the artist best known for his work on writer Alan Moore's League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, has passed away, according to a report from Gosh Comics, a London comics retailer and blog. According to their post, O'Neill passed away last week following a long illness. O'Neill was a force in British comics for years, starting his career as a teen and then serving as both an artist and editor on the early days of the mega-successful anthology series 2000AD. There, he co-created characters like Marshal Law and Nemesis the Warlock, and built relationships that would continue throughout his long career.

"What happened really was Alan retired me early," O'Neill joked with ComicBook.com's Jamie Lovett earlier this year. "Alan's retirement from comics, it meant he was stopping writing comics. That was the end of it. I didn't say I was retiring. I thought this might be the last comic I draw, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, and I was very happy. We actually got to the ending and gave it a proper ending. That was very important to us to do that. But I was still up for doing comics, it just depended on what they were. I've illustrated two books of my own. They're not comic strip books, they're full-color illustrated books, and I've done two of them, and I was very pleased with them, but in the middle of that, I got the request from Rebellion, 'Would you be interested in the Garth story?' And that's perfect, and that was perfect for me, came just at the right moment. I really enjoyed it. I enjoy doing comics."

Artist Kevin O'Neill, the British comic book artist whose best work carved new paths in the superhero genre, died this week. O'Neill's best comics chart a course from 1980s British comics to 2000s independent fare, including titles like Marshal Law and 2000 AD. Fans unfamiliar with his work now have the opportunity to learn about a vital, inventive period in comic history.

He added to the comic's verisimilitude with realistic costumes, gadgets, and landscapes. His devotion to detail became a hallmark of his career and certainly influenced artists that followed in the 1980s and 1990s when such detail became prevalent in mainstream superhero comics.

These stories likely prove the most difficult for fans to find, though they're worth the effort. Ro-Busters comics have not been collected as often as other comics O'Neill worked on in the same period.

His creations often resembled creatures that wouldn't be out of place in The Thing, among the best horror movies ever. DC Comics published the graphic novel, among the first in the genre, though the concept began life in 2000 AD comics in the United Kingdom.

Featuring graphic violence and nudity, unheard of in mainstream comics at the time, the comic satirized the superhero genre in ways that now seem familiar. O'Neill continued to skewer the genre and others in later work with Mills and his other frequent collaborator, Alan Moore. 0852c4b9a8
