Customer Review: This is a great story. The characters in this story are amazing. Each is compelling and there is no clear winner or loser. I love this story.
Customer Review: While the art is fantastic I was a little disappointed by the brevity and lack of depth in the story. It just seemed to be over too quick and left me wanting more.
Customer Review: I loooove this Graphic Novel, I decided to purchase it after watching the movie, and although it is very different from the movie, it is still quite interesting. I read this book in one day!
Customer Review: The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen takes the idea of a crossover to a new level. It takes a group of British literary heroes, including Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, the Invisible Man, and Captain Nemo, and puts them together in a superhero group fighting against Victorian-era perils. The idea is... more info
Customer Review: I love Alan Moore, but he does need to learn that sometimes less is more when it comes to writing prose. He does go on. And on. The more classic graphic novel parts of this collection come as a huge relief after some of the small print endlessly verbose essays, but no matter what, I got hours of... more info
Customer Review: The commic book part is great, however; the end story is really wordy and kind of boring. It does have some clever points but not enough to keep you interested.

From Hell tells the (deeply researched) story of Jack the Ripper, but it is so much more than that. Quite simply, it is a story of London--the city is the book's primary focus and it soon becomes a living,... more info
Customer Review: So many people talk about the writing so I think is useless for me to do it (awesome). I have picked up a couple of books of the early 90's, none of them come as nearly as close as this one is well portrait, (I bought Knightfall, Zero Hour, and the return of Superman) one thing is to draw good in... more info
Customer Review: A brief pamphlet (hilariously described as a "graphic novel" on the back cover -- I think they meant to call it a "trade paperback") reprinting a 1985 essay, followed by an afterword from 2003 in which the author says that everything he wrote earlier was rubbish. Moore was young when he wrote... more info
Customer Review: While some of the stories included are not among Moore's best, this collection still represents a really good place to start when collecting his work. Obvious highlights include "Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?" and "For the Man Who Has Everything", "Tygers" (for Green Lantern fans), the... more info
