The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen timeline

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is an ongoing graphic novel series written by Alan Moore and illustrated by Kevin O'Neill. The primary commentator on the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen series (hereto after in this article referred to as LoEG), is Jess Nevins, whose published works are considered the most complete annotations of all the various literary references made by this series. This timeline is composed of events that take place in The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Volumes I and II, Allan and the Sundered Veil (ATSV), and events hinted at or briefly covered in the expansive work The New Traveller's Almanac (TNTA), as well as The Black Dossier, all of these works written by Alan Moore and illustrated by Kevin O’Neill. However, ATSV and TNTA are text-based stories which take the form of a serialized, pulp-style "Boy's Story" (Allan and the Sundered Veil) and a travel guide, (The New Traveller's Almanac) respectively, with a few illustrations by Kevin O'Neill, rather than being in graphic novel form. All entries directly derived from these LoEG books will be represented by italicized entries in order to differentiate LoEG canon from the works it draws from.

It should be noted that in order to place these varied events into chronological order, and to get the best sense of the Leagues' activities, there is some speculation as to probable times and orders of events, as well as mention of several events which, while happening to characters contained in LoEG, do not actually occur in LoEG, but in the original works the characters were taken from, these entries shall not be italicized. Since LoEG is a crossover fiction, there are several events which the writer of LoEG will assume the reader already knows about the character, and these events can be considered canon. At some points, however, the fictional canon of LoEG comes into conflict with the worlds of the various fictional works used as components of the LoEG fiction. These places are clearly marked, but as a general rule, unless specifically noted, the events of the sampled fictional canon all are assumed to have happened as depicted in the original work, with the addition of being in a world in which the events of all the other fictional bodies have taken place as well.

Secondly it should be noted that this timeline is written in ignorance of the events of Century by Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill, which is currently scheduled to be released in 2008. Sufficient to say, there will be much needed addition and correction to this timeline with the release of "Century".

Thirdly, it should be noted that in order to avoid the timeline being too cluttered with notations, the members of the various Leagues and other, comparable organizations present in LoEG are listed at the bottom of the page with a complete list of their bibliographical origins.

Unfortunately, rather than sending him to another life, this herb sends him to an ethereal plane where he encounters other such ethereal travellers. In an uncertain time and place outside of our normal realm of existence, Allan Quatermain encounters John and Randolph Carter, the former a Confederate soldier whom was intercepted during his initial astral projection to the planet Mars, and the latter a Massachusetts scientist studying the realm of deep dreams. They are soon met by the Time Traveller, who informs them that there are extra-dimensional creatures invading their reality, and that he has gathered them to tackle the problem. Unfortunately, the Time Traveller's plans are somewhat disturbed by a number of factors, and none of his recruited heroes remember their experience with the Time Traveller other than as a half-remembered dream. However, it stands to reason that the Time Traveller, not being restricted to linear time, will again try to contact such heroes across time in order to stop the invasion of our reality that British Intelligence has feared since the late 17th Century. (From Allan and the Sundered Veil and The New Traveller’s Almanac by Alan Moore/Kevin O'Neil. "Taduki" from H. Rider Haggard's Quartermain Series)

[edit] 1890s

• 1890 – Wilhelmina Murray, later Wilhelmina Harker through marriage, fights Count Dracula in England and across Europe in a battle for her very soul. Basil Hallward's portrait of Dorian Gray, having deteriorated somewhat over the years, has miraculously reconstituted itself at the same time as Dorian Gray himself dies and becomes disfigured. The painting hereafter begins to decay again until some time before mid-1898 when it is brought to the British Museum for restoration. (Dracula by Bram Stoker, The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Volume 2, Chapter 3: "And the Dawn Comes Up Like Thunder" by Alan Moore and Kevin O’Neill)
• July 1890 – Captain Nemo (Prince Dakkar) and his crew travel to the Cape of Good Hope in the Nautilus submersible and encounter several strange islands along the way, including Nacumera.

• May 4, 1891 – The disappearance of Sherlock Holmes and Professor James Moriarty in Switzerland. Both presumed dead. ("The Adventure of the Final Problem" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle)
• 1894 – The Great Detective Sherlock Holmes returns to England, though secretly (probably under an assumed name), and will remain so until 1903 when Doctor John Watson begins publishing his account of the Great Detective’s cases again. Though, in Dr. Watson’s later accounts of the cases between 1894 and 1903 he will skew the facts slightly to the effect of making it appear that the Great Detective’s return was known – this annoying anachronism may have been the choice of Dr. Watson’s editor and Literary Agent, Arthur Conan Doyle. Captain Nemo makes extensive explorations of Antarctica, circumnavigating the continent and making extensive explorations of the interior. (The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen by Alan Moore and Kevin O’Neill, The New Traveller’s Almanac by Alan Moore)
• 1895 – The man later known as the Time Traveller finishes his fantastic time machine and begins his temporal adventures. For the purposes of this time-line, however, these anachronistic travels appear in the order they would appear on the timeline proper, not in the order the Time Traveller perceived them. (The Time Machine by H. G. Wells)
• 1897 – Hawley Griffin disappears from public view when he becomes The Invisible Man. Jonathan and Wilhelmina Harker publish their accounts of the Dracula Incident some seven years previous, and Wilhelmina gives birth to the couple’s only son before their divorce some time the following year.

Ishmael, first officer aboard the Nautilus, reports a sighting of the "ghost submersible" around Drake Passage, later known as the Yellow Submarine, as recorded in the Nautilus’s logbook by Captain Nemo. (The New Traveller’s Almanac Chpt.3 Pg.2 by Alan Moore)
• c. 1898 – It is unclear as to the events surrounding Wilhelmina and Jonathan’s divorce, or what happened to their son. Regardless, they were divorced, and their son is nowhere to be seen. The only clue is that there is some antipathy between the two. Also, some time in late 1897 or early 1898, Wilhelmina, now going by her maiden name of Murray, begins, assuming she was not already, working for British Intelligence and recruits Captain Nemo into her new fledgling League. (The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Volume 1, Chapter 1: “Empire Dreams” by Alan Moore and Kevin O’Neill, and Dracula by Bram Stoker)
• April, 1898 - The Titan, a British passenger liner, strikes an iceberg in the North Atlantic and sinks around midnight.

• June 27-28, 1898 – The three of them arrive in Paris, France, where they, with the help of the aged C. Auguste Dupin, capture Mr. Edward Hyde (as well as his alter-ego Dr. Henry Jekyll), and return to England.

• Early July, 1898 – A unified coalition of Martian armies under the command of John Carter, of Virginia, and Gullivar Jones, of the United States Navy, make one final attack on the last stronghold of the alien creatures which have plagued Mars for some time, creatures they call the Molluscs. The siege is successful only by using the combined strength of all the significant armies of Mars, including the giantish Sorns. Unfortunately, the Molluscs manage to escape in several cylinder shaped refugee ships bound for Earth. The launch of these craft are seen on Earth, and believed to be volcanic eruptions (as reported in a newspaper seen in LoEG Vol. 1 on about July 6, 1898).

However, London’s East end suffers heavy property damage and loss of life – this is the first of many aerial disasters which will strike London in the next half century.

[edit] 1901-1905

• Late 1900 – Wilhelmina Murray follows Allan Quatermain to Africa, who is in search of the City of Kôr and the Fire and Life, in order to rejuvenate himself. On the sea trip to Africa, Wilhelmina records several interesting, though previously explored, islands that the ship passes. Then on Dec. 24 Wilhelmina Murray writes that they've located Kor in the "British Protectorate of Uganda" on the Fantippoan Postmaster General's "detailed map of Africa." (The New Traveller’s Almanac Chpt.4 Pg.5,6,7 by Alan Moore, She: A History of Adventure by H. Rider Haggard
• January 8, 1901 – Wilhelmina Murray and Allan Quatermain trek southeast from the Kingdom of Fantippo, in Africa, to Uganda and the hidden city of Kôr, passing several interesting kingdoms and lands as they go, and finding the Fire of Life as well as a "stone etched map of Abyssinia... by the crater pool." (The New Traveller’s AlmanacChpt.4 Pg.7 by Alan Moore, Doctor Dolittle's Post Office by Hugh Lofting, She: A History of Adventure by H. Rider Haggard)
• 1901 – The difficulties encountered in the effort to rebuild London after the Martian Invasion of 1898, and also the strain of returning to full military strength, is cited as one of the primary reasons England loses the Boer War. The Airship Wars break out between the German Empire and the United States, and quickly spreads throughout Europe – devastating London and other major cities. The English lunar expedition, delayed in 1898 from its original goal of reaching the moon by 1900, succeeds in placing men on the moon and, we are left to assume, returning them safely to Earth. Wilhelmina Murray and Allan Quatermain find Kôr in Africa and bathe in the Pool of Fire and Life, making both of them immortal and rejuvenating Allan to a younger age. To conceal his mystical age change and prevent British Intelligence from finding out about the fire's regenerative abilities, they claim nothing had happened and Allan died of exposure later on, claiming the rejuvenated hunter to be his son, Allan Quatermain, Jr.. Rumors of Sherlock Holmes's continued existence circulate, though nothing is at this time substantiated. Jack Harkaway, the British traveller, dies abroad and is survived by his children and grandchildren. The beginning of the crime spree of the super-criminal known as Fantômas. Fantômas will continue to plague authorities for at least the next four decades. (The New Traveller’s Almanac by Alan Moore, War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells, The War in the Air by H.G. Wells, The First Men in the Moon by H.G. Wells, She: A History of Adventure by H. Rider Haggard, Jack Harkaway and His Son’s Adventures Round the World by Bracebridge Hemyng, and the Fantômas dime novels and serialized newspaper stories created by Pierre Souvestre and Marcel Allain) Chronological Note: The placement of the Airship Wars in The New Traveller's Almanac is clearly 1901, which is curious, as in the book, The War in the Air, it is listed equally clearly that the war happened some time after 1907 - when there are monorails and two-wheeled automobiles and motorcycles as common sites throughout Europe and most of the world - considering that the world of LoEG has, seemingly, this level of technology (automobiles and primitive blimps and nations experimenting with powered flight, etc.) in 1898, Moore may have purposely moved The War in the Air back a few years in order to fit into the world of LoEG and to leave room for World War I.

• 1904 – Wilhelmina Murray and Allan Junior travel to Sussex to investigate the mysterious "Wish House," first seeking the council or assistance of "The Beekeeper" (a retired Sherlock Holmes).

• January 8 to March 19, or thereabouts, 1907 - Second Murray League heads out on foot into the Back of the North Wind, freakishly warm for being so far north. This group spends what, subjectively, seems like three days, but is actually closer to three months, in the Back of the North Wind, and encounter such peoples and places as Frankenstein's Creature, Olympia, Toyland, a "forlorn and sorry chap" who lacks identification, and Noddy, and are made aware of a "bold, fearless black balloonist," who also lacks identification, before leaving. (At the Back of the North Wind by George MacDonald, Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus by Mary Shelley, "The Sand Man" from the book Nachtstücke or Night-Pieces by E.T.A. Hoffman: Speculation: the identities of the "forlorn and sorry chap... in old and faded naval uniform" and the "bold, fearless black balloonist" remain the continual vexation of LoEG fans, and has not even been clearly identified by Jess Nevins. On Jess Nevins' website, it has been suggested that the forlorn naval man is in fact the captain of the Titan, which has been established as being in LoEG canon already, and that, like the real-life Titanic, the Titan sunk somewhere in the North Atlantic when it struck an iceberg. The Titan is from Futility: or, the Wreck of the Titan by Morgan Robertson. On Jess Nevins' website, it has been postulated that the "bold, fearless black balloonist" may be Jim from Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain using the dirigible from Tom Sawyer Abroad, also by Mark Twain, or Lee Scoresby from Northern Lights by Philip Pullman, or perhaps Florence Kate Upton's Golliwogg, as he was sometimes drawn as a big black balloon. Whatever the answer to these two questions, it will no doubt be sorted out in the next volume of LoEG)

Though the explosion and subsequent collapse cause some 200 casulties, both leagues escape with their rosters intact.

[edit] League Associates

These are individuals who either assist or have ambiguous ties to the League. Baron von Münchhausen has many portraits and busts and trophies in the British Museum (AKA Montagu House) which have led many fans to believe that he was a member of one of the Leagues, or a member of the body of British Intelligence which governs the League, for the purposes of this timeline supposed as The Royal Society. Orlando does encounter each of the confirmed Leagues in The New Traveller's Almanac, and is even there depicted with the symbol of the League (a question mark) on his/her watch chain. Orlando is also a member of the 20th Century League, and is one of the only three confirmed members as of The New Traveller's Almanac. Sherlock Holmes, historically, has been tied to British Intelligence through his brother Mycroft (a member of H.M. Government), and in Vol. 1 of LoEG, is shown to have the symbol of the League on his cigarette case. In The New Traveller's Almanac, there is a confirmed encounter between Wilhelmina and Sherlock Holmes. C. Auguste Dupin, while not a member of British Intelligence, is no less a friend of the League, as per the events of LoEG Vol. 1. William Sampson, Sr. is an original character created for LoEG, and is supposedly the farther of Bill Sampson (AKA the Wolf of Kabul), a 1920s British comic book character (who is also considered by some to be an associate of the League because of his canon association with the British Intelligence Corps). Campion Bond is also an original character created specifically for LoEG, and was originally intended to be James Bond's father, but this was never pursued due to licensing issues.

20th Century League's Speculated Lineup

This League is a confirmed League, headed by Wilhelmina Murray and Allan Quatermain (later Allan Quatermain, Jr., with the confirmed addition of Orlando, and the suspected addition of Professor Challenger. Though Prof. Challenger was only listed as a "sometimes consultant" to this League in The New Traveller's Almanac. The "Mr. Altamont" speculation was derived from the initials A.J. in TNTA, who we now have learned may be A.J. Raffles the reformed "Gentleman thief" of E.W. Hornung's, and now confirmed member of this league, often described as having a Holmes type intellect. Also confirmed is the occcult detective Carnacki "the ghost finder".

[edit] Fogg’s League

Speculative 19th Century League

There has been no confirmation of this League at all, aside from the popular belief among fans of the LoEG series that the portraits of the people behind the main 19th Century League on the cover of Volume 1 are in fact a past 19th Century League because they not only are all British (aside from Robur, who is therefore not considered among this League) and they all were active in their own canon around the 1870s. The picture in which this supposed League is portrayed is inside the League's headquarters in the British Museum. In this picture is even the group portrait of the 18th Century League discovered in the story of Vol. 1. Also, in this picture, is the actual character Count Allamistakeo (a mummy), sleeping, as well as a portrait of him.

[edit] Other Groups

[edit] Les Hommes Mysterieux

The French League – Les Hommes Mysterieux

Les Hommes Mysterieux is said to be the "French counterpart to the League" in The New Traveller's Almanac. In A Blazing World by Jess Nevins, it is said that the roster of Les Hommes Mysterieux was based on information provided by a colleague of Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill, Jean-Marc Lofficier, a leading expert on French literature and pulp. There are two members, listed here, however, who are not confirmed members of Les Hommes Mysterieux. Doctor Omega has been rumoured to be a part of Les Hommes Mysterieux because an alien he encountered on Mars is shown in an illustration of Les Hommes Mysterieux, but Kevin O'Neill has said in conversation with J.M. Lofficier that making Doctor Omega part of Les Hommes Mysterieux was not his intent in that picture[2]. The second unconfirmed character is The Sâr Dubnotal, who is rumoured to be a member of Les Hommes Mysterieux that has simply yet to be confirmed.
