What do you get when you cross a vampire, a colonist, an invisible man, a shape-shifting monster and a pirate? Why you get the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen! The comic written co-created in the late 90's by the prolific Alan Moore centered around some of literature's greatest figures as they band together to stop one of histories greatest villains in a plot to take over the world. The 2003 adaptation, which has the strange distinction of being Sean Connery's last film, has some of those moments, and add a bunch of new ones, but does it hold up to the original?

The war between Batman and The Joker has always had Gotham trapped in its wake, with the GCPD usually standing by helpless. Written and Drawn by Sean Murphy and released under the DC Black Label imprint, Batman White Knight turns everything we know about Batman and Joker’s relationship on its head in a story that by asking us,  is Batman really what’s best for Gotham or Can the Joker ever really be redeemed?  Most stories involve Joker trying his best to break The Bat, and The Dark Knight doing his best not to execute the crazed clown killer, but this one takes a more modern approach.  Join us in a story complete with twists and turns, that provide a sharp social commentary on vigilantism but also an in-depth look at a semi-sane Joker aka Jack Napier.
