The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: Black Dossier by Alan Moore

1.0

I'm all for boundary pushing work, but I think Alan Moore was given a bit too much creative freedom here. I enjoyed "From Hell" greatly, but this was just too much. Never mind the the text sections, with their 200-word line lengths, were pure torture to try and read. The original idea of the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is very fun as it lends itself to a lot of opportunities for clever literary references, but this is just a muddled, overwritten mess. Maybe I'm just not enough of a comic book geek to really appreciate this.
