"Rêves d'Empire" marks a pivotal moment in the La ligue des Gentlemen Extraordinaires series, with Alan Moore and Geneviève Coulomb teaming up to deliver a richly layered tale. Kevin O'Neill’s distinctive art, joined by the dynamic inks of Lawrence Berry and the vivid colors of Benedict Dimagmaliw, brings to life a sky filled with motorized balloons and kites as the League confronts Moriarty’s aerial assault. The cover, a collaborative effort by O'Neill and Berry, captures the chaos above Limehouse with striking precision.
