Dr. Henry Jekyll

Robert Louis Stevenson's tormented Victorian scientist Dr. Henry Jekyll appears in Alan Moore's League of Extraordinary Gentlemen as a founding member, his ability to transform into the brutish Mr. Hyde making him both asset and liability to Wilhelmina Murray's team of literary misfits.

Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill brought Dr. Henry Jekyll into comics in 1999's The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen #2, weaving this literary legend into one of the most celebrated reimaginings of Victorian fiction the Copper/Modern Age produced. Across a handful of carefully chosen appearances — including turns in Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde and Magdalena vs. Dracula: Monster War — Jekyll keeps extraordinary company, sharing pages with the likes of Wilhelmina Murray and Captain Nemo. His catalog footprint may be compact, but every appearance carries weight, rooted in a landmark series that redefined what comics could do with classic characters.
