The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen

Here's a nice little nibble of a review for you. About three months back I read The League of Extraordinary Gentleman by Alan Moore. It's a fun graphic novel, but not as good as The Dark Knight Returns or Watchmen. The art was excellent, the story was sufficiently compelling, and the writing was fun. It just didn't grab me at any deep level. It was entertainment only, which is sad, because it was so beautifully drawn. Here's the real crux of the book: I've already forgotten most of the plot. Still, it was good, and if you're a fan of Alan Moore's other work you'll probably enjoy it.

Score:8/10
Read this book if: You want to look at pretty pictures while being moderately entertained.
Don't read this book if: Compelling artwork isn't enough to keep you hooked.
