![]() ![]() ![]() Just one question, and no hate intended I rather LIKED Mina, but ummm what exactly is her qualification? Er besides being bitten by Dracula? She has no powers I can see. The various interpersonal conflicts between team memebers is excellent. The cast of characters from Mycroft Holmes to the opium-addicted Quartermain are inspired! I enjoyed it tremendously. In the first story we see the League put together and their very first mission, and one of the best ones IMHO, against a mysterious M who seeks to destroy the Empire. But it's the cool story that makes this a great read. The art style actually grew on me through the story and certain large panels did have a certain attraction, especially the complex panels. What an excellent series! The combination of world-building (steampunk Victorian England) with an off-beat cast of characters (The League and their "associates") ,interesting villains and a solid plot butressed by excellent prose make for a superb comic. It collects Volume I and II of the League along with two short stories. It was with great pleasure that I ran across this omnibus edition. I had previously comes across this series in a one-shot comic. ![]()
