About this Collection

This omnibus collects the first two story arcs of Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill's genre-mashing series, bringing together classic literary characters like Mina Harker, Allan Quatermain, and Captain Nemo as a Victorian-era superhero team. It includes the original six-issue miniseries and its sequel, along with supplementary material from the series' early years. Published by DC under its America's Best Comics imprint, this volume presents the complete narrative of the League's formation and their initial adventures against threats like Professor Moriarty and the Martians from The War of the Worlds.

In "1: Empire Dreams," the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen faces a skyward siege as Moriarty unleashes chaos over Limehouse, forcing the team to take to the air in the balloon Victoria. With Nemo and Mr. Hyde battling Moriarty’s forces on board and Miss Murray alongside Quatermain working to disarm the ship’s cavorite core, the stakes rise as the League’s mission takes a dramatic turn. Written by Alan Moore and illustrated with precision by Kevin O'Neill—whose distinctive art defines the cover and interior—this omnibus edition captures a pivotal moment in the League’s storied campaign.
