When alien invaders find that they no longer have use for
Mars, they set their many eyes upon a new planet - one that
is blue-green and known by it's inhabitants as earth. It is
not long before giant cylinders are falling across the planet,
from which emerge an invasion force of unstoppable (?) alien
tripods...
The
second The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen collection
to be released in the UK by Titan Publishing tops the success
of the first collection. And, after the disappointment that
was the movie mess, this collection proves that not even Sean
Connery's poor acting (Again! Remember the nightmare that
was The Avengers?) can detract from this excellent
series.
Yet
again, the world's biggest freaks are left to save mankind
from extinction (and I'm not talking about Alan Moore and
Kevin O'Neill). O'Neill's illustrations beautifully illustrate
Moore's warped vision in a way that no other artist can.
It's
hilariously funny and rips the hell out of your average superhero
comic books. Victorian values have never seemed so entertaining.
