Hello boys, and girls of course. In
today's post I've got one of two theories I wish to discuss, both of
which pertain to the upcoming League of Extraordinary Gentlemen Volume
IV,
Now this contains spoilers for the
Third Volume but odds are you've probably read my previous posts, and
probably know them anyways.
And now you've won half the battle.
Theory number ONE!: The villain
At the end of the Third volume,
Prospero (their leader after Alan and Mina realized Socialists were
planning to turn Britain into a totaltarian dictatorship...AKA Oceania
from 1984, and went AWOL. Through unknown means they went into his
service and served as agents of the surreal Blazing World) is heavily
implicated to have wanted Harry Potter (who as I mentioned, became a
lightning ejaculating maniac of an Antichrist) dead because he wanted
HIS strange and terrible new era to come instead of that of Harry's
maker Oliver Haddo (or as you people know him, Lord Voldemort the Count
Orlok lookalike.)Pictured: Voldemort's third cousin (twice removed...from his head.)
As soon as he does it though, he abandons them the way some bitches just "abandon" their babies by throwing them in dumpsters (personal note: such people must be buried alive), he didn't try to kill them but it certainly struck me as "disposing of the hired help."Uh, not exactly like this...
If that wasn't a big enough tip-off, this skinny, bearded bastard could have just as easily prevented the whole thing. Prospero possessed an obsidian mirror called a "scrying glass" which was capable of seeing the future. Now granted he'd lost it years ago, but no self respecting sorceror wouldn't have tried to even get a replacement for it? He could have not only stopped Harry from massacring Hogwarts and giving Alan Quartermain one of the most humiliating deaths imaginable. Such lack on concern for life in general ain't helping this Gandalf wannabe's case in the slightest.
If you're objecting on Prospero's side, you have no place here Wright.
In the side story entitled "Minions of
the Moon" he had Mina, the Gally-Wag (Alan Moore's take on the
Gollywog...and an utter sex fiend) and the Gallywag's sex do- er, sorry,
I mean Dutch Dolls, go to the Moon and prevent a war between two Moon
based species.
The reason is this,
he wanted to prevent humanity's lunar colonies from being lured out of
their homes because of this conflict and into to parts that suspiciously
contain the Monoliths from 2001: A Space Oddyssy...but what makes this a
clue is that he said humanity wasn't to find it YET; which means this
might have have been used to build up the plot for Volume four.
Opera singers have nothing on this guy.
In the previous installment, the Black
Dossier, we saw Prospero discussing an alliance with Nyarlathotep of
H.P. Lovecraft fame, now since this beast has a hard on for murder and
chaos that rivals the Heath Ledger Joker by ten or twenty times, and the
fact the alliance in question was with Yuggoth; it makes you wonder
just what the Hell Prospero had in mind with him.
Wrong answer, smartass.
The
final piece of information suggesting he's the villain is that when
Haddo pointed out his deductions of what was going on, he practially
reffered to Prospero outright when he said that they were playing a
"subtle" game, a reference to Johannes Suttle from an old play called
The Alchemist...and a former alias of Prospero's.
He'd have used Edward Elric as one, but the name was "too small."
Now his
motives...what could he have in mind for a "strange and terrible new
era"? My answer is based off of something in a previous installment,
where Queen Glorianna (their version of Queen Elizabeth) commissioned
Prospero to devise the first League as part of a long term plan to bring
back the race of the Faerie back to Earth after her insane nephew
forced them out of Earth, and England as well.
Jeez, those guys really should have hid their wands better.
My guess is that
this was Prospero's plan the whole time, my question however is why it'd
be a "terrible" era (though I can get where the strange part comes
from.)
Now anyways, this is all I can manage this week...next week I'll tell you my guesses on the League, specifically the membership. Let's see who'll probably be fighting an old wizard who probably tried to audition for Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings.
