Collected Edition: Episode 95: League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
Manage episode 364839592 series 2352302
“It is a veritable ‘Where’s Waldo’ of gothic and Victorian novels.”
Today on the program we will be discussing The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, a troubled classic by Alan Moore and Kevin O’Neill. This is a creative tour de force, an overflowing toy chest full of rich ideas, mixing multiple copyright-free characters in a story full to the brim with references and Easter eggs. And questionable choices. It is a discussion full of praise and blame.
In addition, we talk about the new DC movie and TV slate released by James Gunn himself! There’s lots of good stuff coming our way that makes us feel cautiously optimistic.
As always, thanks for listening.
WE STILL WANT YOUR RECOMMENDATIONS!
