How Time Flies When You're Having Fun

Last week, the first of three chapters in the third League of Extraordinary Gentlemen series came out, and I couldn't be happier. It's by the usual suspects - writer Alan Moore and artist Kevin O'Neill - and is a beautiful square bound edition that's more than 70 pages long. In fact, it's so good that I've been reading it in small sips, rather than chugging it all down at once.

The 3-part series is called Century. Part 1 is set in 1910, the second volume will be 1969-based, and then it wraps up in 2009 (hence, covering an entire century). No word yet when the second and third installments will be published, but I suspect that if you asked Alan Moore, he'd say, "They'll be out when they're bloody-well ready!" And that works for me!
